Important Notes
1. The HDT-02_H.264 High Definition camera transmitter is completely
compatible with the DVB-T/T2/S2 Standards, included in the European Standard ETSI EN300744 (DVB-T), ETSI EN300755 (DVB-T2), ETSI EN302307 (DVB-S2) and ETSI EN300421 (DVB-S).
2. It is important that when the transmitter is switched on, the selected RF
output connection must have the suitable antenna or must be loaded.
3. The HDT-02 digital camera transmitter applies a MPEG-4 compression to
either HDMI, composite video or SDI input signals. An MPEG-1 layer 2 compression is applied to the corresponding 4 analogue audio channels, the 2 stereo SDI embedded, the HDMI embedded and the AES digital audio signals. The resulting multiplexed signal is transmitted using COFDM modulation system.
4. The HDT-02_H.264 transmitter is available from 1 GHz to 6.4 GHz in
three ranges (1-2.8 GHz, 2.8-4 GHz and 4-6.4 GHz) for the DVB-T2 and DVB-T RF stage and the L band for the DVB-S2 and DVB-S IF stage.
5. In 1080p Video Format, it can only be performed the Standard Delay,
not the Low Delay, Super Low Delay or Ultra Low Delay.
6. If the RF output is set to DVB-T2 and the bandwidth selected is 1.7 MHz
then, the device automatically disables the Audio2 and it sets the bitrate of the Audio1 to 128 Kbps.
7. In case it is selected SDI input with 1080p format, the delay will be
automatically Standard.
8. Equipment’s maximum output power for the DVB-T2/T is 100mWatt
(selectable from -5 to +20 dBm) and for the DVB-S2 and DVB-S is from
-20 to + 5 dBm.
9. Special care should be taken with SDI cables, quality and length, these
are very important, especially when HD-SDI or 3G SDI signals are transmitted.
10.If any audio or data channel are not used in a transmission, they should be disabled, in order to assign that bitrate to the video and achieve a higher quality transmitted video signal.
11.Only authorized personnel should open the product and any repair or warranty will be invalidated if the seals are broken.

Safe Operating Procedures
In this section there are shown safety requirements so as to ensure awareness of potential hazard to the personnel operating and maintaining the equipment.
FCC
This chapter has been done taking into account the OET bulletin 65, from August 1997, recommended by the FCC (Federal Communications Commission). The HDT-02_H.264 transmitter designed to provide services for broadcasting, will not create RF energy exceeding 1.0 mW/cm2, the FCC limit for exposure. This is known as the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limit. This transmitter follows this law (with the AVF flexible antenna 3 dBi) as long as the distance between the antenna and the person is at least 4 cm. In case it is used the PA-5 (5 W power amplifier), the minimum distance is 28.2 cm and if it is used the PA-10 (10 W power amplifier) the minimum distance is 39.9cm. SVP Broadcast Microwave, in accordance with the requirements set forth by the FCC, provides this information as a guide to the user. Next there are shown the calculations made so as to obtain those values:
S = MPE in mW/cm2 (milliwats per square centimeters)
So as to follow the law, S maximum must be 1.0 mW/cm

EIRP = P · G
Where:
EIRP: Equivalent isotropically radiated power
G (dBi): Antenna gain in dBi
P: Output power of the transmitter (W)
R: Distance from the antenna to the transmitter (cm)

Declaration of RF Exposure Compliance for Exemption from Routine Evaluation Limits
SAR Evaluation – AVF-203L antenna
As shown in the point number 2.5.1 from the RSS-102 Radio Standard Specification, SAR evaluation is not required if the separation
distance between the user and the radiating element of the device is more than 20 cm.
The equipment, which consists on the HDT-02 transmitter with the AVF­203L antenna fixed to it fulfills with this requirement. As shown in the figure
below, the distance between the device’s radiating element (situated at the top of the antenna) and the nearest part of the user’s body is further than
20 cm length. If the length from the radiating element to the bottom of the
antenna is 20 cm, then the distance between the nearest part of the user’s
body and the radiating element will be higher than 20 cm. As the cameraman always uses the camera in the same way and the antenna is fixed to the camera, the distance is always maintained.
Conclusion: This equipment is exempted from SAR evaluation.

RF Exposure Evaluation
As shown in the point number 2.5.2 from the RSS-102 Radio Standard Specification, RF exposure evaluation is required if the separation distance between the user and the device’s radiating element is greater than 20 cm, except when the device operates as follows:
- Below 1.5 GHz and the maximum e.i.r.p. of the device is equal
to or less than 2.5 W.
- At or above 1.5 GHz and the maximum e.i.r.p. is equal to or
less than 5 W.
Due to this equipment is going to operate above 1.5 GHz and the maximum e.i.r.p. is 200 mW (with the AVF-203L or the AVF-203LB antenna), this equipment is exempted from the RF exposure evaluation. When this equipment is operating below 1.5 GHz, it is also exempted from the RF exposure evaluation because the maximum e.i.r.p. (200mW) is lower than
2.5 W.
Conclusion: This equipment is exempted from the RF exposure evaluation.

First Aid in Case of Electric Shock
DO NOT TOUCH THE VICTIM WITH YOUR BARE HANDS until the circuit is broken. SWITCH OFF. If this is not possible, PROTECT YOURSELF with DRY insulating material and pull the victim clear of the conductor.
If breathing has stopped, indicated by unconsciousness, lack of respiratory
movements and a ‘blue’ look to cheeks, lips, ears and nails, START
RESUSCITATION AT ONCE.
EMERGENCY RESUSCITATION – THE EXPIRED AIR METHOD
(Approved by the Royal Life Saving Society)
1. If possible, lie the victim on his back with his head slightly higher
than his feet. Clear the mouth and throat of any obvious obstruction.
2. Kneel on one side of the victim, level with his head. LIFT THE JAW
AND TILT THE HEAD BACK AS FAR AS POSSIBLE (Figs. 1a and 1b)
3. One of the following may happen:
a) Breathing may begin and consciousness return. b) Breathing may begin but consciousness NOT
return. Turn the victim on his side and ensure that the airway is kept clear.
c) Breathing may return but be NOISY which
means that the airway is not fully clear. Try to clear the airway.
4. IF THERE NO SIGN OF BREATHING:
a) Check that the head is still tilted back. b) Take a deep breath. c) Pinch the victim’s nose and blow firmly into his
mouth (Fig. 2). As you do, the chest will RISE.
d) Turn your head away and take another breath,
watching for the chest to FALL (Fig. 3).
5. Start with four quick breaths and then continue with
one breath every five seconds (i.e. 12 times a minute). This should be continued until the victim revives or a doctor certifies death.
6. As consciousness returns the victim will start to
breathe on his own, and a ‘pink’ color replaces the ‘blue’ look: this is the time to stop resuscitation.
Continue to hold his chin up and so keep the airway clear.
7. In the case of injuries to the mouth, it may be necessary to use
mouth-to-nose resuscitation. Seal the victim’s mouth with your cheek and blow firmly into his nose, proceeding as above.
XI
HDT-02_H.264 High Definition Digital Camera Transmitter
USER’S MANUAL V4.11
8. In the case of severe facial injuries it may be necessary to do a
manual method of artificial respiration (Silvester-Brosch or Holger Nielsen). Briefly, these methods apply compression to ribcage with the victim lying on his back (S-B) or face down (H.N.) with associated movement of his arms up and out. The cycle of movement should take about five seconds, i.e. the normal breathing phase.
9. Whatever the method, it is ESSENTIAL to commence resuscitation
WITHOUT DELAY and to send for medical assistance immediately.
TREATMENT FOR BURNS
If the victim is also suffering from burns, then, without hindrance to resuscitation, observe the following:
a) DO NOT ATTEMP TO REMOVE CLOTHING ADHERING TO THE BURN. b) If possible alleviate the pain from the burnt part by immersing in
cold water.
c) If help as available or as soon as resuscitation is no longer required
the wound should be covered with a DRY clean dressing.
d) Oil or grease in any form should not be applied. e) If severely burnt, get the victim to hospital immediately.

USER’S MANUAL V4.11
Chapter 1: Introduction
The HDT-02 is the new multifunction and multiband transmitter developed by SVP Broadcast Microwave. The features of this equipment, achievable only by SVP, make this transmitter the most advanced in the market up to the date.
Its feature H.264 encodes for 3G, high definition (HD) and standard definition (SD) signals with ultra-low latency. H.264 transmission is possible using 40% lower bitrate than conventional MPEG-2 systems.
This new generation transmitter accepts analogue video, 3G/HD/SD-SDI and HDMI video input signals. Analogue, SDI embedded, HDMI embedded and AES audio inputs are available as standard. User data or GPS data can be transmitted over the data channel.
The ASI output enables the user to use the transmitter as a standalone encoder.
The HDT-02 transmitter performs DVB-T2 and DVB-T modulations with a frequency band from 1 GHz to 6.4 GHz. DVB-T enables compatibility with neatly all types of receivers. DVB-T2 modulation outperforms DVB-T modulation and offers much higher data rate, which renders in a higher signal quality or much more robust signal than DVB-T, achieving longer and more difficult links.
This transmitter also performs DVB-S2 and DVB-S modulation. An L band IF output is available, which enables the user to use the transmitter as a satellite Encoder&Modulator unit.
This device has an exceptional RF performance with the highest bandwidth available. In addition, it also includes up to three eligible frequency bands for the DVB-T2/T (1 GHz to 2.8 GHz, 2.8 GHz to 4 GHz and 4 GHz to 6.4 GHz) and the L band for the DVB-S2 and DVB-S so as to transmit RF signals.
Control, operation and monitoring of the HDT-02 transmitter are very friendly. All the parameters of the transmitter can be configured in field. Furthermore, 6 presets are configurable for quick equipment set up. A wide range of accessories allow using this equipment in many different applications.

HDT-02_H.264 High Definition Digital Camera Transmitter
USER’S MANUAL V4.11
Features
Input video signals, composite video, 3G –SDI, HD-SDI, SD-SDI or HDMI are MPEG-4 encoded, together with 4 analogue audios, 2 stereo AES/EBU Channels, HDMI embedded or 4 digital audios embedded on the SDI signal. The video formats can be 1080p (only in Standard Delay mode), 1080i, 720p, 576i or 480i. This transmitter also has a test pattern and test tone generator available.
This device has a data channel available that allows transmitting user data or GPS data as well as a Transport Stream ASI input so it can be used as a repeater.
The encoder uses a H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10 video compression that provides output bitrates from 1 Mbps to 100 Mbps and a MPEG-1 Layer II audio compression which supplies different audio bit rates (128, 192, 256 or 384 Kbps).
Encoded signals can be encrypted using BISS-1 or BISS-E scrambling system. Encrypted signal will only be received by the receivers that have a valid descrambling key.
Transmitter system operation is very easy. It has a display and a keyboard which make possible the configuration and monitorization of every parameter of the equipment.
The equipment is fed with DC power supply from 7 to 36V. It can be powered through DC power supply connector or through the battery mount.
Its excellent design, mechanical and electronic assembly make the HDT-02 a robust and reliable solution.
DVB-T2 features
It is available from 1 GHz to 6.4 GHz through three different output bands, being maximum output power 100mWatt. High quality components have been used to achieve the best output signal quality.
The HDT-02 digital camera transmitter uses COFDM (Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) modulation system (1K, 2K, 4K, 8K, 8K.ext) which provides a superior signal robustness and a higher link performance. This technology provides operators with efficient means to overcome the challenges of NLOS propagation and mobile channels propagation.
OFDM spread spectrum modulation system distributes the data over a large number of closely-spaced carriers, for example, 1705 carriers in 2K mode. The data are divided into several parallel data streams, one for each carrier, so, each carrier transports a lower data rate and the symbol duration is longer. Each carrier is then modulated with a QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM or 256QAM scheme with a constellation rotation.
7
HDT-02_H.264 High Definition Digital Camera Transmitter
USER’S MANUAL V4.11
An OFDM modulated signal, since uses a low symbol rate modulation scheme (i.e. where the symbols are relatively long compared to the channel time characteristics) suffer less from intersymbol interference caused by multipath propagation. As the duration of each symbol is long, it is feasible to insert a guard interval between the OFDM symbols, thus eliminating the intersymbol and co-channel interference. So, if one carrier’s information is lost, it would only be lost a small part of the whole information.
Besides, in OFDM, the sub-carrier frequencies are chosen so that the sub­carriers are orthogonal to each other, meaning that cross-talk, interference, between the sub-channels is eliminated. The orthogonality allows high spectral efficiency.
On the other hand, OFDM system is invariably used in conjunction with channel coding (forward error correction). The error correction code used in this equipment is Reed-Solomon coding, which is concatenated with LDPC, and there is an additional interleaving between the two layers of coding. Error correcting codes build redundancy into the transmitted data stream. This redundancy allows bits that are in error or even missing to be corrected in the receiver.
The European ETSI EN 300755 standard defines the following LDPC coding rates: 1/2, 3/5, 2/3, 3/4, 4/5, 5/6. There is a compromise between the coding rate (signal robustness) and the transmitted bit rate. If the coding rate is higher the signal transmission is more robust (1/2 is the most robust) but the bit rate that the system is capable to transmit is lower.
Used modulation scheme of each OFDM sub-carrier, QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM and 256 QAM is also connected with signal robustness and transmitted bit rate. QPSK is the most robust and 256QAM is able to transport a higher bit rate.
Besides the system can define 7 guard intervals: 1/4, 19/128, 1/8, 19/256, 1/16, 1/32 and 1/128. The guard interval is used to reduce intersymbol interferences due to the multipath propagation.
In addition, it also provides several bandwidths: 1.7, 5, 6, 7 and 8 MHz in case there are needed for different applications.
To summarize, with all of these characteristics, the maximum bit rate achieved is 50.3 Mbps.

DVB-T features
The RF stage of the HDT-02 transmitter is the same as the DVB-T2 one. The difference is found in the modulation part as is commented bellow.
The HDT-02 digital camera transmitter uses COFDM (Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) modulation system (2K mode).
The available modulations are QPSK, 16QAM or 64QAM where the most robust is the QPSK one and the one with the bigger bit rate is the 64 QAM.
The European ETSI EN 300744 standard defines the following convolutional coding rates: 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8.
Used modulation scheme of each OFDM sub-carrier, QPSK, 16QAM and 64QAM, is also connected with signal robustness and transmitted bit rate. QPSK is the most robust and 64QAM is able to transport a higher bit rate.
Besides the system can define 4 guard intervals: 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 and 1/32.
In conclusion, with all of these characteristics, the maximum bit rate achieved is 31.67 Mbps.
DVB-S2 features
In case the HDT-02 transmitter is needed to be used as a satellite transmitter, it features an IF stage in the L band with an output power level from -20 to +5 dBm and a L band output that provides a 10 MHz reference oscillator.
The HDT-02 digital camera transmitter uses single carrier or one modulation from the next available: QPSK, 8PSK, 16APSK or 32 APSK where the most robust is the QPSK one and the one with the bigger bit rate is the 32 APSK.
In addition, the European ETSI EN 302307 standard defines the following LDPC coding rates: 1/4, 1/3, 2/5, 1/2, 3/5, 2/3, 3/4, 4/5, 5/6, 8/9, 9/10.
In the modulation step it is also included a roll off factor (0.20, 0.25, 0.35) which is used to reduce intersymbol interference where the value that most reduces interference but with less bandwith is 0.20.
To sum up, with all of these characteristics, the maximum bit rate achieved is 31 Msym/s.
