8 Technical Terms  
Antenna cable:  
Connecting cable between the modulator of the satellite receiver and the antenna input  
socket of the TV set; used as an alternative if no SCART socket is available  
AV: see SCART  
Coaxial cable:  
Cable connecting the LNB to the satellite receiver, used to carry the signals received as well  
as to provide power to the LNB.  
Data compression/MPEG1/MPEG2:  
In order to transmit the current TV standard (625 lines and an image repeating frequency of  
50 Hz), one arrives at a digital data volume of 216 MBit/s. This would require enormous  
bandwidths not available either with terrestrial nor with satellite broadcast technology. A data  
compression system is thus employed to reduce the amount of data transmitted. In Europe,  
MPEG-2 has been defined as the worldwide standard for data compression. MPEG-2 is an  
expansion of the original MPEG-1 standard.  
External unit:  
Term used for the complete system installed out of doors, consisting of the parabolic/offest  
dish antenna as well as one or more LNBs, used to receive signals from one or more satelli-  
tes.  
Deemphasis:  
Adjustment of the audio frequency band to the broadcast signal, this is determined by the  
broadcast parameters of the satellite  
DiSEqC:  
Digital Satellite Equipment Control: a digital switching signal used to control DiSEqC-compa-  
tible components of the external unit via the antenna cable.  
DVB:  
Digital Video Broadcasting: a universal digital broadcast standard used for images, graphics,  
sound and text, i.e. for data in any form, and in any quality, appropriate to the type of data.  
Frequency:  
Physical dimension, indicates the waves or oscillations per second, the unit of measurement  
is Hertz (Hz)  
Frequency range:  
a) Satellite resp. LNB:  
11 GHz range from 10,70 GHz to 11,70 GHz, 12 GHz range from 11,70 GHz to 12,75 GHz  
b) Receiver: Intermediate frequency or 1.IF 950 to 2150 MHz

Intermediate Frequency (IF):  
The frequency range broadcast by a satellite cannot be transmitted via a cable connection.  
The LNB thus converts the signal to an interim frequency range of 950 to 2050 MHz, which  
enables the signal to be received and processed by the receiver.  
1. IF = Interim Frequency,  
LNB/LNC (Low Noise Block converter):  
The receiving unit at the focal point of the parabolic dish antenna, it converts signals from  
the frequency range of the satellite into the intermediate frequency of the receiver  
LOF:  
Local oscillator frequency, stated in terms of MHz or GHz, varies according to LNB as well as  
according to the frequency range received.  
Reception frequency of the receiver = Broadcast frequency of the satellite - LOF  
Modulation at 22 KHz  
This, in addition to 14/18 Volt switching, serves to switch between two LNBs. In Universal  
LNBs it serves to switch to high band  
Modulator  
Switching mechanism in a satellite receiver or video recorder, serves to facilitate connection  
via antenna cable  
Mode:  
determines whether a mono or stereo programme is received  
Multyfeed:  
External unit, consisting of one parabolic dish and several LNBs, used to receive signals  
from several satellites  
Parabolic dish antenna:  
Dish formed in parabolic shape, made of metal or coated synthetic material, focuses the  
electromagnetic waves received from a satellite in a focal point (where the LNB is mounted)  
Polarisation plane:  
In order to better utilize the frequency range, satellites broadcast neighbouring programmes  
with opposite polarization (horizontal and vertical, or dextro-rotatory and laevo-rotatory). In  
order to receive both polarisation planes one needs either two single LNBs or one V/H-LNB.

Satellite receiver:  
The signals received and converted by the LNB cannot be processed by the TV set. The  
satellite receiver modulates and processes them in such a way that audio and video signals  
(AV) are created at its outputs, which are fed on to the TV set.  
SCART:  
Connector plug/socket found on TV sets, video recorders, satellite receivers and other home  
electronic equipment, used to transmit audio (sound) and video (picture) signals (AV).

Software Update:  
Digital television is a new medium. Apart from improved sound and image quality, it also pro-  
vides the facility for interactive services. These new services are continually being developed  
and improved by programme providers. In order to use these services it may occasionally be  
necessary to update the software of the receiver.  
Supply voltage:  
LNBs are provided with electrical current via the coaxial cable. In order to achieve this, the  
receiver supplies a voltage of 14 or 18 Volt  
Transponder:  
This has the task of processing one or more programmes on board the satellite. It receives  
data from the ground station, amplifies them, and broadcasts them back to earth  
Universal LNB:  
Term used to describe a three-band LNB, capable of receiving the ranges FFS (10,70 - 11,70  
GHz), BBS (11,70 - 12,50 GHz) and FFS High Band (12,50 - 12,75 GHz). The complete  
range is generally divided into two bands:  
Low Band: 10,70 - 11,80 GHz; LOF 9750 MHz  
High Band 11,70 - 12,75 GHz ; LOF 10600 MHz
