6、01/2014) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsibl
7、e for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T
8、study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative ba
9、sis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandator
10、y provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The u
11、se of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes n
12、o position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property,

ITU-T J.382 (01/2014) Introduction As the demand of hi
17、gh quality broadcast and multicast services from consumers side is increasing, cable operators seriously search for more efficient ways to transmit those services through hybrid fibre coax (HFC) based networks. Modulation and coding schemes for global use in cable industry are based on b-ITU-T J.83,
18、 which was developed and deployed in the 1990s. These technologies, specified in b-ITU-T J.83, can support up to 38 Mbit/s per 6 MHz channel when using 256 QAM modulation scheme and thus do not serve demands for advanced digital downstream transmission systems. In the near future, advanced digital t
19、ransmission systems including enhanced coding and modulation, can replace digital cable transmission systems defined in b-ITU-T J.83. Rec.

20、n 1 Scope The scope of this Recommendation is to define a globally common specification for framing structure, channel coding and modulation schemes for television, sound and data services including high quality broadcast and multicast services for downstream distributed through hybrid fibre coax (H
21、FC) based networks to provide high spectral efficiency. This Recommendation will contribute to the development of common products for cable broadcast and telecommunication downstream physical layer (PHY). The specifications included in this Recommendation are based on the requirements defined in ITU

33、ulation 5 Conventions None. 6 Advanced digital downstream transmission systems for cable distribution 6.1 System concept A downstream framer, capable of receiving multiple formats of streams, such as MPEG-2 transport streams and Ethernet packet streams, has the function of framing these streams for
34、efficient transmission. A downstream forward error correction (FEC) encoder, followed by a downstream framer, adds an encoding function to protect information data from channel noise through HFC based networks. The downstream modulator covers functions of mapping high order quadrature amplitude modu
35、lation (QAM) constellation in order to improve spectral efficiency, as well as interleaving mechanisms for the protection of information data from burst noise in time and frequency domain. The basic block diagram of advanced digital transmission processing is shown in Figure 1. Input stream does not
36、 only represent a single stream, but instead can consist of multiple independent data streams, containing signals and components of advanced digital downstream transmission systems for television, sound and data services for cable distribution. The channel model of HFC-based networks is primarily a
37、bandwidth-limited linear channel, with a balanced combination of white noise, interference and multi-path distortion. Orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) technique with channel coding can have advantages to minimize the loss due to typical channel distortions in HFC-based networks. The ad
38、vanced digital downstream transmission system shall be fully transparent with respect to the different transmitter input and related receiver output signals. Upstream advanced digital transmission technologies are not covered by this Recommendation. 4 Rec. ITU-T J.382 (01/2014) J.382(14)_F01Input st
