4.1
SR1 Integration in Satellite over IP Networks
The SR1 is designed to be integrated into IP over satellite network topologies as described in
Figure 1. The Satellite dish (with LNB to receive the signal), and the IP router (which enables
the SR1 to forward the IP packets) are common to all the systems. Figure 1 demonstrates a
general installation scenario of the SR1.
Figure 1 Typical SR1 Installation
The SR1 integration process is described as follows:
The SR1 RF input is connected to the LNB on the satellite dish. SR1 provides the LNB with the
appropriate power and control and receives the DVB-S/S2 signal in L-Band.
The only parameter the operator requires to configure is the RF L-band frequency. The SR1
automatically detects all other parameters.
For a symbol rate below 1 Msps or for modulations higher then 8PSK, a manual configuration
of the symbol rate may be required.
The automatic channel parameters detection enables the operator to change the MODCOD of
the link without the requiring to re-configure the receiver.
The SR1 supports two RF inputs and can be operated either as single demodulator with two RF
inputs or dual demodulators.
The selection between the two Rx channels and the Rx configuration profiles can be performed
manually or automatically.
All the Unicast IP packets that the SR1 extracts from the satellite signal are forwarded to the
router. The SR1 does not support routing functionality what’s so ever.
The IP address of the default router is configured manually. The SR1 uses ARP to find the
MAC address of the router.
The IP address of the default router is not required to be on same subnet as the Traffic
interface of the SR1. The Default router must replies to the ARP request of the SR1.
SR1 supports internal ARP table of 16 entries, making it capable of serving a LAN without a
router. When an MPE section has a destination IP address different to the default router, the
SR1 will initiate an ARP request to learn the MAC address. If a reply is received the SR1 will
keep the match in its internal ARP table. If the table reaches the 17th, address, the oldest
entry will be overridden.
In SR1 uses the ARP table IP address and the ARP table IP mask to determine if an incoming
packet is in its subnet and implement the ARP mechanism. If the packet is not in the SR1
9
Page 16
Advanced DVB-S2 Receiver Operational Manual
SR1 Specifications
subnet, it will be forwarded to the default gateway. By default the SR1 ARP table IP address
is set to the Default Router IP
Multicast traffic received is forwarded directly to the Traffic LAN and is blocked from the
Management LAN
The SR1 supports three management interfaces, as follows:
100BaseT interface using Telnet
100BaseT interface using SNMP.
Serial over USB interface with a text based terminal application.
Note
Both Traffic and management ports of the SR1 are connected to the internal switch. Connecting both
of them to an external switch may cause issues with functionality of both switches
4.2
SR1 Block Diagram
The SR1 Block Diagram is illustrated in Figure 2 SR1 Block Diagram
The SR1 structure includes the following parts:
Tuner 1 and 2: Full L-Band RF front end with LNB powering and control. When SR1 operates
with a single demodulator, both tuners are assigned to the demodulator and the tuners act in
redundant mode. When using the SR1 in dual demodulator mode each demodulator has a
single tuner.
DVB-S2 Demodulator: The demodulator can be configured to a single demodulator (with the
support of up to 32APSK 45 MSPS VCM/ACM) or dual demodulator (with support of 8PCK
CCM 30Msps).
De-Capsulation: The De-Capsulation block extracts the IP/Ethernet packets from the
Transport stream (in MPE mode) or the Base Band Frames (in GSE mode). When SR1
operates with a single demodulator, all 8 De-Capsulation filters are assigned to the single
demodulator. When the SR1 operates in dual demodulator mode four filters are assigned to
each demodulator.

Figure 2 SR1 Block Diagram
Page 17
Advanced DVB-S2 Receiver Operational Manual
SR1 Specifications
Management CPU: The management CPU implements the control of the board and the user
interface.
Application CPU: The application CPU is an optional CPU (added ad daughter board) that has
a GigE connection to the switch.
GigE Switch: The backbone of the SR1 is an internal managed GigE switch. The Internal
switch is managed (QoS, VLAN etc).
4.3
SR1 Receivers Management
The SR1 receiver consists of three components. The RF inputs, the Demodulator and the Decapsulation filters.
The SR1 supports two modes for operating the receivers ( RX channels):
Single Demodulator: The two RF inputs are connected to a single demodulator. All the eight
De-Capsulation filters are connected to the single demodulator
Dual Demodulator: Each RF is in use by one of the demodulators. 4 de capsulation filters are
connected to the first demodulator and 4 to the second
For each receiver, the SR1 supports two configuration profiles. The configuration profile
includes the RF parameters (L-Band frequency and LNB control), the demodulator
parameters and the de-capsulation filters configuration.
The operator uses the SR1 in the following modes:
Single Demodulator with a Round Robin rotation between the Two RF Inputs and between the
Two Configuration Profiles of each. RF1 (Profile1) -> RF1 (Profile2) -> RF2 (Profile1) -> RF2
(Profile2) -> RF1 (Profile1):
The SR1 rotates between the states until it locks on a valid signal.
The time out for each state is configurable.
The two RF inputs can be connected to two different LNBs on to different antennas.
The lock criteria is RF lock and does not validate the data.
Single Demodulator with One RF Input and Two Profiles. The SR1 will switch to the second
profile the moment it loses the lock on the first one
Dual Demodulator, each with a Single RF with two profiles.
Single RF input with single profile and single demodulator
4.4
SR1 Packets forwarding
The SR1 forwards IP packets received from the satellite link, into the local LAN over the Traffic
interface.
When a destination MAC address of an MPE section matches the MAC address in one of the
SR1 Filters (after passing the PID stage) the IP part is encapsulated into a Ethernet packet
and sent to the internal switch

The SR1 internal Flash (non volatile) memory stores 2 images of software, 2 images of
firmware and an image of the Boot Loader.
The images can be managed to provide field upgrade of the SR1.
For each type of image (Software or FPGA) there is an active image and non active. The active
image is the one to be used in next cold reboot or power cycle.
Images are uploaded using TFTP protocol. When loading a new image it is replacing the non
active image.
Specific hardware versions of the SR1 support only Firmeware version management.
Note:
The SW release upgrade may delete the current configuration. Please make sure you retrieve
and save configurations form the SR1 prior to upgrade
When upgrading to new Bootloader the recommended order is as follows:
• Upgrade the application and reboot the SR1 with the new Application
• Upload new BootLoader, Activate it and reboot with new Boot loader
• Upload FPGA file and Application
Telnet and TFTP share same resources, it is recommanded that during the TFTP seassion,
Telnet will be disconnected.

Software Image Management
The SR1 software contains two software components.
Boot loader: Small and robust code that starts after power up or reset and launch the
application. For more information about Boot Loader update see paragraph 11.3 below
Application: Stored in the Flash memory and is field upgradeable.
At boot time the SR1 boot loader verifies whether a new software image was selected as active
and performs the following:
If a new image is selected, the boot loader copies the image from the on board flash memory,
to the CPU flash memory.

The SR1 can be integrated with other communication
channels to offers enhanced network performance.
Figure 11 illustrates the integration of SR1 with a VSAT terminal, as follows:
The Forward link capabilities of the SR1 are superior to VSAT terminals.
Using the SR1 as a receiver for the forward link enables reception of high bit rate and frame
rate traffic.
IP data from the LAN is passing to the VSAT via the internal switch in the SR1.
Figure 11 - SR1 / VSAT integration
Another optional integration is with Local loop radio. In a Terrestrial networks such as MVDDS
or MDS the SR1 can be combined with Local loop radio like WiMax and with residential
gateway.
Using the internal switch of the SR1 enables this integration simple and cost effective.
The Local loop link provides the two way connectivity where the SR1 provides the high
throughput in the forward link.
