CHECK COMPARISON TABLE

For broadcasters

Network delay margin

Network planners determine what time instant transmitters should use to broadcast the transport stream bits. They all have to do it at a precise given time, e.g. 700 ms in the picture.

The difference between the network delay and the required transmission time (700 ms in the example) is called the

“network delay margin” and it will be different depending on the specific transmitter location. The lower the 'network delay margin' the higher the chances of that particular transmitter missing the assigned transmission time.

-3-

Receiving and analyzing T2-MI signals

T2-MI is the modulator interface signal used in the 2nd generation digital terrestrial television broadcasting system. It is physically transported to the TV towers using IP or RF and it is accessible via network devices in the form of ASI or IP signals.

RANGER

Neo can receive a T2-MI signal via RF, ASI and IP, in which case it can perform transport quality measurements,

T2-MI packet analysis and PSI extraction from each PLP.


Professional spectrum analyzer

Reference traces

Freeze the spectrum graph and compare it with the running trace. Save that information and use it to identify satellites based on their spectrum footprint.

-4-

Triple split display

Up to 9 different ways to combine TV, measurement and spectrum modes.

High resolution filters

Touch screen

Place the marker on any channel and move the trace using your finger. Enter frequencies or file names using the soft keypad.

-5-

2.4 & 5.7 GHz WiFi analyzer

Simultaneous real spectrum analyzer information + WiFi access point data

WiFi signals can be disturbed by interference from other WiFi stations, for example other access points, but also from non-WiFi signals such as wireless CCTV cameras or a microwave oven. RANGER Neo can display real spectrum analyzer information and access point data simultaneously.

-6-

Access point information

RANGER Neo shows convenient information from the access points such as SSID, RSSI, SNR, security information, etc.

It also indicates the number of access points per channel and offers you guidance regarding the level of occupancy of a specific channel.


AUTOMATIC SHOULDER

ATTENUATION MEASUREMENT

Productivity tools

StealthID

The RANGER Neo StealthID function automatically identifies the required demodulation settings while tuning so that you don’t need any previous information about the signal.

-7-

Full band power

The measurement of full band power is very useful to understand how much energy is available in total at the test point.


webControl and Video streaming

-9-

Video / Audio Streaming

It is now possible to stream the Transport Stream after channel demodulation either over a private LAN or over the

Internet, as a unicast (UDP) stream. The service as seen on the analyzer screen can be streamed as a SPTS over IP, or as a full TS containing all services for the channel being tuned.

The same feature can be used for other streams received over IP or previously recorded, instead of coming from an

RF source.

Remote, 24/7 signal monitoring

PROWATCH Neo

PROWATCH Neo is our response to the need for remote, permanent, 24/7 signal monitoring operations. It is embedded in a 19" 1U rack case and it allows you to do everything you can do with the portable analyzers but remotely. It is also possible to connect it to a keyboard and monitor using

USB and HDMI interfaces.

-10-

Neo technology allowing users to perform:

• Live transport stream and service recording.

• Service IP streaming.

• Alarm generation.

• Service quality and alarm statistics.

OTT. MPEG-DASH

VIDEO STREAMING

OTT or Over The Top refers to video, audio and other media services delivered directly to the user over the Internet.

Many useful functions

Merogram and Spectrogram

These functions have been developed to allow an early detection of intermittent impairments that may occur in very short periods of time and can not be monitored otherwise.

-11-

Attenuation test

Test the frequency response of your installation using RP-050,

RP-080, RP-110B signal generators.


THE FASTEST WAY TO IDENTIFY SIGNAL IMPAIRMENTS

There are different types of constellation diagrams for the different modulation modes.

Constellation diagram

Detecting signal impairments at a glance

16/32 APSK, 8PSK and QPSK constellation

In the case of an ideal transmission channel, free of noise and interferences, all symbols are recognized by the demodulator without errors. In this case, they are represented in the constellation diagram as well defined points hitting in the same area and forming a clear dot.

-12-

16, 32, 64, 128, 256 QAM

Every modulation type is represented differently. A ITU J.83

Annex B 16QAM signal is represented on the screen by a total of 16 different zones, and a DVB-C 64QAM is represented on the screen by a total of 64 different zones and so on.


IPTV MEASUREMENTS

IPTV functions

-13-

Network bitrate

The network bitrate gives you an indication of the network load and possibility of overload.

Multicast Media Delivery Index and FEC

A key quality measurement formed by the Delay Factor and the Media Loss Rate. FEC measurements are also available.

IP Ethernet frame viewer

IP Ethernet frame viewer captures a multicast packet displaying all its frame details, for example Time-To-Live

(TTL), all fields of RTP protocol, etc. It is very helpful to study IPTV signalisation problems.

PING, Trace, Average packet delay and IPDV

They are very useful to identify the reasons for communication problems, anything from complete service interruptions to uncontrolled delays which can be as important in terms of service performance.


WIDEBAND LNB COMPATIBLE

Wideband LNBs deliver the entire vertical and horizontal satellite polarities (low and high band together) using two separate RF cables and an extended IF frequency range from

290 to 2,340 MHz. Is your analyzer ready?

Advanced satellite technology

Beacon-flyaways, SNG and VSAT

Satellite BEACON signals can be clearly seen thanks to the

1 MHz SPAN and 10 kHz resolution filters.

Having the proper resolution filters is critical in some applications, RANGER Neo includes a very narrow 2 kHz filter available in terrestrial TV band.

IRG descriptor identification

The IRG descriptor is an embedded code that is added to video links containing contact info, GPS coordinates, etc from the source signal to allow a quick troubleshoot of interferences in scenarios such as live transmissions of sports events.

VCM / ACM modulation schemes

VCM / ACM (Variable/Adaptative Coding and

Modulation) allow changing the modulation parameters used in the same RF channel over time.

-14-


Multistream, PLS and dCSS dCSS LNBs

Digital Channel Stacking Switch LNB can support several users on a single cable distribution system by allocating specific user bands for each of them. It is not possible to work with this type of LNB unless your field strength meter communicates using EN50494 (SATCR, UNICABLE) and

EN50607 (dCSS, JESS, UNICABLE II) standard protocols.

-15-

PLS - Physical Layer Scrambling

The PLS index is a number generated by the broadcaster that must be properly decoded by the customer so that demodulation is possible. RANGER Neo can also work with this type of signals.

DVB-S2 multistream

Advanced modulation techniques combine several independent transport streams into one single RF carrier. Selecting a specific TS is easy with your RANGER Neo using the ISI

Filtering function.

Advanced satellite technology

LTE INGRESS TEST

Should you install an LTE filter?

Test your TV distribution system.

LTE interference

LTE interference on SMATV systems

The RANGER

Neo has a variery of tools to compare the signal reception quality measurements on digital TV channels with and without the LTE filter. This is very helpful to anticipate the performance improvement you should expect on your TV distribution system well before you physically make changes to the cabling to insert the LTE filter.

LTE interference on CATV networks

Some of the bands allocated to LTE are near or inside former television bands. For example band 20 (uplink 832-862 MHz; downlink 791-821 MHz). The RANGER Neo has special functions to help installers determine the level of activity in those bands and therefore anticipate potential interference problems

Downlink and Uplink interference

Downlink interference comes from the mobile phone base stations which are placed at fixed locations and are always on.

This is not the case of Uplink interference which comes from the handheld devices and therefore it can be a lot more difficult to locate and mitigate.

-20-

LTE Signals

LTE signals and channel repack

The use of Smartphones is widely spread all over the world.

In order to meet user demand for bandwidth, mobile phone operators need to expand their networks, use more efficient transmission standards (LTE) and use part of the bandwidth historically assigned to TV broadcast services (channel repack in the US or digital dividend in Europe).

-21-

M2M Machine to Machine applications

Besides LTE interference measurements there is also an increasing need to look at the LTE signals themselves.

This function can also be useful for Machine to Machine applications (electric car charging station, vending machine, wireless credit card reader...). One of the first problems you encounter is to make sure there is good signal coverage from the operator the system is working with.

DYNAMIC ECHOES ANALYZER

A must-have utility for testing DVB-T, DVB-T2

ISDB-T/T

B and DVB-C2 networks.

Dynamic echoes analysis & more

DiSEqC commands

Elementary DiSEqC commands are available from a drop-down list. They can be combined to form macros which can also be associated to a channel table.

-22-

Digital services database

RANGER Neo builds a list of the TV and RADIO services detected as it tunes the different digital channels. Besides tuning by frequency and channel It is then possible to select a specific service from the list.

HIGH END FUNCTIONS

The bitrate analysis shows on a pie chart the real time bitrate used by each one of the services in a transport stream. It is also possible to do alarm monitoring according to TR-101-290.

Transport stream analyzer & player

Table analysis

This function shows every detail of the transport stream tables in real time on a tree diagram. This is an outstanding function which is normally only available in more expensive equipment. It is possible to navigate through the tree branches using the joystick or the touch screen functionality.

-23-

Record, analyze, decode and copy a

Transport stream

A function available for RANGER Neo that enables the instrument to record the received TS in real time onto a a USB pendrive or on its internal memory. The recorded TS can also be decoded or analyzed.


CATV network analysis

SCAN

CATV installers appreciate very much having a SCAN function on their analyzer for it allows them to check all the channel levels in a graphical way.

-24-

TILT

Using pilot generators as a reference, the TILT feature helps us to equalize the CATV network. We can detect as many as 4 pilots along the band from 6 – 999 MHz. The meter will calculate the level difference between the two most distant pilots and the tilt measurement (dB/MHz).

Powerful datalogger and T ask planner

Datalogger and Test&Go

The datalogger can perform channel power, carrier/noise,

BER, MER... measurements automatically. It can also save information from the NIT table such as the network name or even the SID and names of the services in the mux under test.

All this information is saved inside the meter and it can be downloaded to a USB memory or to a PC for further processing later on.

-25-

Task planner

This function allows to set-up a task list, both for screen capture or Datalogger acquisition, selecting when to start, a repetition rate and the number of times the selected task must be performed. The equipment can be switched off after setting all parameters and will itself wake-up, at the required time, to perform the planned tasks.

... plus 6 GHz RF input

Optical measurements

Selective optical-to-RF converter

RFoG (Radiofrequency-over-Glass), as well as optical

TV&SAT distribution, is used more and more by operators because it allows them to benefit from the advantages of fibre optics to compete with FTTH service providers. The RF signal at the converter output can be analyzed, measured and decoded by the meter as one would usually do with any signal over copper wires.

-26-

6 GHz RF auxiliary input

The RANGER Neo optical fibre option comes along with

6 GHz RF auxiliary input which can be used among other applications for direct connection to wholeband LNB’s with

5.45 GHz RF output. This auxiliary input covers three bands:

Band I

Band II

Band III

From 2150 MHz to 3000 MHz




COVERAGE ANALYSIS AND

GPS

This option turns the RANGER

Neo into the perfect tool to perform signal coverage

“drive test” analysis functions. It can capture different kind of measurements embedding time/date and geographic coordinates information.

Drive test GPS

Run your coverage analysis over one of multiple RF channels simultaneously

Once the drive test is completed, plot the coverage measurements overlayed in Google Earth (KML format), and generate the resulting reports in Exceland CSV formats.

Create 3D maps with your measurements

-27-

Creating reports

All this information is saved automatically to either the internal meter’s memory or to an external USB memory and can be transferred to a PC computer using a universal XML format.

Once on the PC the data can be processed and presented in different ways among which overlaying the values on a map is the most interesting.


FM, RDS and DAB+ radio

DAB+ digital radio

DAB+ is an evolution of DAB ( Digital Audio Broadcast ) that among other differences uses AAC+ audio codec. It also includes Reed-Solomon error correction algorithm which makes it more robust against transmission impairments.

RANGER

-31-

Down to the smallest detail

It is also possible to display plenty of useful information about the DAB mux and audio ensembles such as Ensemble and Country IDs, ECC, PTY, Component and SubChannel information or even the detail of the Radiotext.


Create, save and transfer data

Ethernet connectivity

Ethernet and IP protocols are now the gold standards for remote control applications and RANGER Neo offers this functionality. Besides remote control the IP interface can be used to save or retrieve data from a PC, copy channel tables or installation information, dataloggers, screenshots, etc.

-32-

No running out of memory

There is a lot of information that RANGER Neo can store in its internal memory: Dataloggers, screenshots, signal monitoring files, etc. Its large storage capacity will make you think it's unlimited. However, files such as transport stream recordings can be very heavy. Storage capacity can also be extended to up to several Terabytes using a
