Broadcast and multicast in the sector of several verticals-an evaluation of the current status

摘要

In times of rare spectrum our generation has to think if it is useful that every service has its own spectrum. PMSE, broadcast and BOS services use different frequencies and methods to solve the current situation. Because of the upcoming 5G standard the question arises if mobile communication can support the other services or even at the end if there can be one platform for all services and which can use all frequency bands with the newest technologies. In this paper we are focusing on the broadcasting and PMSE services. There are two projects which are dealing with this task. Simulations, measurements and analysis are made if 5G can be a platform for all the mentioned services. The focus is on the unicast and multicast, as well as SISO and SIMO transmission modes. A simulator, which is implemented in matlab, is used as simulation tool. The simulation results are presented in dependence of bit error rate over the signal to noise ratio. This allows a qualitative statement about the receiving quality.
