CHAPTER 1
Introduction
General Description
The Thor H-AC3-CMOD-QAM-LL encoder & modulator is a portable part of the popular CMOD series of digital
HDTV encoder modulator systems formally known as VQAM. Like all CMOD systems, this platform is available
in three versions for use with over 95% of the world’s broadband TV systems. Advances in technology have
reduced component size to the scale that Thor can now integrate every system and component necessary for a
digital HDTV headend into a single handheld unit. CMOD systems are combination devices that bundle a real
time MPEG hardware encoder, DTV transport stream generator, and agile RF frequency modulator in a single
enclosure. Any HDMI live video source can now be converted to an open TV channel for insertion and
distribution over cable & antenna TV coax systems. The generated program can be viewed natively on any
television set with its built in tuner.
