Generating a Test Signal for Distributed DVB-T2 MISO

This application note describes how the transmitter landscape of a DVB-T2 single-frequency network (SFN) can be simulated in multiple input single output (MISO) mode in order to test the compatibility and performance of receiver modules. Neither an external T2-MI gateway nor a GPS receiver is required - just an R&S^®BTC equipped with two RF paths. Alternatively, one R&S^®SFU coupled with one or more R&S^®SFU, R&S^®SFE, R&S^®SFE100 or R&S^®SFC can also be used. R&S^®ETL or R&S^®ETC are suggested to fine-tune the synchronization between the generated RF signals.
