Original Abstract
In the scheme of Single Frequency Networks (SFNs), all transmitters (TXs) radiate the same signal on the same frequency. The SFN represents an ideal solution for the network planning of 2nd generation Digital Video Broadcasting - Terrestrial (DVB-T2). However, inappropriate steps at the planning of SFNs and DVB-T2 signal configuration can lead to significant decrease in the quality of the received TV signal. This paper deals with the simulation and measurement-based performance study of SFNs used to provide DVB-T2 services in Czech Republic. Professional software (SW) tools are employed to planning and analysis SFNs while measurements in the field are conducted with collaboration of Czech Telecommunication Office (CTÚ). Among others, the obtained results show that the SW tools, in some cases, work with such theoretical assumptions that are not in full accordance with real transmission and reception scenarios. In the future, the outputs of this paper can help in the improvement of SW tools used for planning and analyzing of SFNs.
