MPEG Test Systems — MTS4000 Carousel Analyzer Transport Stream Compliance Analyzer Transport Stream Compliance Analyzer (TSCA) The TSCA offers signicant enhancements over traditional software-based deferred-time (stored streams) MPEG analyzers. The combination of an innovative high-speed analysis engine and built-in intelligence, allows ultra-fast pinpointing and debugging of intermittent faults in MPEG Transport Streams used in next-generation DTV and IPTV systems and services. The TSCA also provides real-time analysis of Transport Streams received through the MTS4000’s stream interfaces, including...

Data Sheet MPEG Player Playout (Transport Stream Generation) Multiplexer The Player tool provides a Transport Stream stimulus for a device under test through the ASI or IP stream interfaces. Continuous playout of looped streams is possible at up to maximum ASI rate of 214 Mb/s with automatic updating of time stamps. Playout rate can be automatically determined from le PCRs or manually set. Summary of MTS4000 Optional Tools Playout through the IP interface provides stimulus with parametric capabilities and multisession replication to characterize behavior of a network or device under test. This...

MPEG Test Systems — MTS4000 Buffer Analyzer Buffer Analyzer When developing professional and consumer equipment, particularly encoders and set-top boxes, the characteristics of the test streams being either generated or used as stimulus need to be ascertained. Of critical importance amongst these characteristics is adherence to the buffer model. That is, when the stream is processed by a receiver, will any of the internal buffers be caused to either under- or overow. Consequences of these conditions will be freeze frames and receiver resets. There are two types of buffer model; the one to use...

Data Sheet MPEG-2 ES Analyzer MTS4EA MTS4EA ES Analyzer Whether developing a new CODEC chip, integrating a CODEC into professional or consumer equipment, or integrating different vendor’s equipment when rolling out new services, the ability to verify the compliance of an Elementary Stream is crucial. This tool checks for compliance of an Elementary Stream to either next-generation VC-1, AVC/H.264, and MPEG-4 standards, or legacy MPEG-2 and H.263. Audio decode and waveform display of MPEG-2 audio (ISO/IEC 13818 parts 3 and 7), AC-3, and MPEG-4 AAC are also supported. Comprehensive diagnostic capabilities...

MPEG Test Systems — MTS4000 Carousel Generator MTS4000 PQASW stream that allows operators to determine the source of a problem (content source, network distribution, etc.). Engineers can clearly see and validate the presence of impairments on the image using unique impairment displays that highlight the location and severity of video defects. In addition, audio diagnostics allow operators to analyze audio loudness related problems to the ITU-R BS.1770/1771 audio loudness standard. MTS4000 VQS1000 Carousel Generator The Carousel Generator product is used for creating object carousel contents within...
