The
Modus is small, portable and cost effective, and provides the answer to the need for a "real world" RF signal on the desk of every video software and hardware development engineer.
Key to these systems is CellMetric's Digital Radio architecture and "Application Specific I/Q™" modules which allow efficient customisation of this architecture using plug and play COFDM channel coders.
Designed for broadcasters, silicon, set top box and mobile video handset developers Modus 3 provides DAB, DVB-T and DVB-H RF modulated test signals in the 174 MHz to 2 GHz band.
Modus 4 adds DVB-S, DVB-DSNG and DVB-S2 generation. Test signals are available at IF, I/Q and RF interfaces, with the option to introduce programmable fading and attenuation in the signal path.
DVB signals can be generated from live feeds via ASI or SPI interfaces. Additionally pre recorded and highly repeatable I/Q and Transport Stream test files can re replayed from internal hard disk, Compact Flash and USB 2.0 memory options.
When connected to a host PC via its USB2.0 interface Modus emulates a hard drive for simple test file management and includes a remote control graphical user Interface option with defined API.

DVB Composer
DVB - Composer is a PC based software application which creates DVB
transport streams. Deigned to emulate a transmission headend, Composer takes pre
encoded audio and video content and generates standards complaint DVB Transport
Streams.
DVB Composer currently supports generation of streams to the following
standards:
|
DVB-H: |
OAI/IDPC format
OMA BCAST format
OMA BCST Interactive |
|
DVB-T: |
UK Freeview format |
DVB Composer is designed to work seamlessly with the Modus 3 RF Network
Emulator.

Modus 6 Fast IQ Network Emulator
Modus 6 is a fast RF I/Q vector signal generator with both frequency agile RF
output and 16 bit analogue I/Q baseband outputs. RF output covers the band 100
MHz to 2.2 GHz enabling play out of both analogue TV, digital TV and cellular
communications waveforms.
Modus 6 has an extremely deep I/Q vector storage capability, an internal hard
disk provides 32 GByte of storage, with a maximum playout size of 32Gbyte.
Maximum play out sample rate is >12 complex (I&Q) Msaples per second, enabling
support for both 6, 7 and 8 MHz video bandwidths and up to 10 MHz cellular
channels.

Modus 6 LTE
CellMetric’s Modus 6 Fast IQ network emulator combined with LTE Composer is designed
to provide cost effective, simple to use digital modulation and RF channel
simulation for LTE network operators, silicon and software developers, sales
demonstration and production test systems.
CellMetric’s LTE test solution is compliant with Release 8 of the Third
Generation Partnership Project standard (3GPP) and supports both Time Domain
Duplex (TDD) and Frequency Domain Duplex (FDD) modes.
CellMetric’s LTE base station signal source consists of one or more Modus 6 air
interface units providing the RF transmission and LTE Composer, a PC based
application which generates the transmit protocol and RF transmission scenarios
to simulate a base station transmission. A combination of the two tools provide
a highly flexible, comprehensive and cost effective solution for LTE handset
development and testing..

INFRASTRUCTURE
The transition to digital terrestrial and mobile TV has generated the need for new flexible cost effective infrastructure which can be deployed quickly, is rugged and easy to maintain.
CellMetric has met this challenge with a range of intelligent, state of the art building blocks which plug together to form multi channel repeaters and micro base stations.
Built around a core software defined radio architecture, our patented systems provide transmodulation between RF or IP feeds to COFDM modulated RF outputs.
All our systems are designed to be waterproof, convection cooled and highly modular.
- Easy to install
- Easy to operate
- Easy to maintain
CM3 Repeater DVB-T
The CellMetric CM3 digital broadcast repeater is designed to provide cost effective, simple digital switchover.
Highly reliable, intelligent, modular, and rugged, the design allows broadcasters to deploy a "plug and play" mixture of on channel repeaters, digital transposers and regenerative demod remod channels.

Radius 4 DVB-T/H Micro Base Station
DVB-H video transmission to mobile phones requires a macro cellular architecture of low power transmission bases.
The CellMetric Radius 4 DVB-T/H mobile base station provides a trials solution for low power stand alone base stations. Inputs include
- ASI transport stream interfaces
- Hard Disk for pre recoded transport streams
- Ethernet packetised IP interface
- RF Interfaces for DVB-T or DVB-S feeds
Future options include
- DVB-T2 Ethernet packetised IP interface
- RF Interfaces for DVB-T or DVB-S feeds
Output is 1Watt in the VHF/UHF band.
The Radius 4 DVB-T/H base station is rugged, waterproof and convection cooled and only requires a mains power supply to get a DVB-T/H transmission up and running.
