scope:

This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) describes the framing structure, channel coding and modulation (denoted "the System" for the purposes of this ETS) for a digital multi-program television distribution by Microwave Multipoint Distribution Systems (MMDS) systems operating below 10 GHz. The aim of this ETS is to present a harmonized transmission standard for cable, satellite and MMDS, based on the MPEG-2 System Layer ISO/IEC 13818-1 [1], with the addition of appropriate Forward Error Correction (FEC) technique.
