The new power in Digital TV
Broadcasting
Built on a solid foundation of experience
NEC transmitters are known throughout the broadcast community for their high reliability and minimal maintenance requirements. NEC's latest
DTV-80 series is based on technology accumulated in many years through broad experience and rich supply record and as well feedback from our
users. Variety of new technologies and useful functions to enhance user's operations and services are provided,including stable operating wideband power
amplifiers, digital linear correctors to reduce distortion and expand service area.
The DTV-80 is also ready to meet future requirements from users - by simply changing the exciter unit from DM-3000A to DM-4000A, the transmitter
is ready for DVB-T2 broadcast.

The latest in digital broadcasting technology
Power Amplifiers (PA)
The newly developed VA3000QE power amplifier utilizes the latest high power LDMOS, realizing compact design, enhanced efficiency and
producing excellent reliability.
Each PA can produce an output power of 1kW average and incorporates a switching power supply. Furthermore, it features an optimized
combination of wideband matching circuits and controls.
In terms of safety features, the PA is incorporated with a RS-485 interface, enabling comprehensive monitoring and remote control functionality. With
the added benefit of self-protection circuits against external factors such as high temperature, reflected power, low AC voltage and internal factors
such as overvoltage and over current.
Additionally, the PA is equipped with RF over input protection, which has a function of protecting the PA against excessive output power produced
from the exciter due to human mis-operation and from the excessive input power in case there is malfunction in the divider.

Exciter
The compact DM-3000 Series Digital Exciter is packed with NEC's state-of-the-art technology. A synthesizer tuned to VHF Band III signals enables
direct conversion to a RF output. Higher or lower bit rates are modified to usable bit rates for flexible bit-rate adaptability. Using the MIP created by
the SFN adapter, seamless ASI switching can be performed. A truly impressive characteristics of the DM-3000 Series Digital Exciter is the ability to
work in conjunction with other NEC transmitters as a signal processor - which greatly reduces the necessity for spare units while simplifying
maintenance.
By changing the exciter to NEC's DM-4000A Digital Exciter, the DTV-80 Series is able to broadcast in DVB-T2.

Functionality Benefits
Adaptive Digital Corrector (ADC)
The ADC automatically generates correction factors of non-linearity distortion and updates the correction table without interrupting program service.
Optimum signal quality and service coverage are maintained, protected from the effects of ambient temperature, aging and other factors. The ADC
comes integrated in the DM-3000 Series Digital Exciters and can be used to generate the correction factor for preset correction. Furthermore, the
ADC is capable of analyzing feedback signals from the TX output, including inter-modulation level, MER value and other graphical data.
Automatic adjustment of the IMP/MER values greatly reduces the time required for maintenance.
N+1 System
The DTV-80 Series frequency-agile design, allows for the construction of an N+1 system, offering redundancy for maximized reliability and
transmission time. By using N+1 controller, up to 8+1 system are available.
At any given time, there is a transmitter ready to be activated should one of the active transmitters malfunction. When activated, the spare transmitter
adjusts its frequency band accordingly without interfering the broadcast signals.

to cut noise and installation costs, making the maintenance easier and

Optional Color LCD
A color LCD screen can be selected as option, which features an intuitive GUI (Graphical User Interface), making transmitter control, monitoring and
maintenance extremely easy to perform. The log data not only displays changes in operational status, including faults, but also enables verification of
related data in case of system failure, thereby streamlining analysis of abnormal status. Frequency setting can be conducted at the touch of a button
on the color LCD screen.
Remote Control/Monitoring
The DTV-80 Series incorporates a web server and SNMP agent, enabling the transmitter to be conducted to a local area network for monitoring and
control of transmitter operations via a remote PC with a web browser. Whilst also allowing a SNMP manager to monitor and control from a different
location at the same time. Thus, provide a cost-efficient maintenance, whilst the transmitter is in operation and without the requirement of expensive
measurement equipment.
