The DVB-S2 standard offers 28 ModCods and supports up to 32APSK9/10 FEC codes. The
standard supports by default the following roll off factors 20%, 25% and 35%.
The following figure shows the DVB-S2 efficiency diagram for a roll off factor of 20%.
Refer to the DVB-S2 standard: ETSI EN 302 307.
By adding the Newtecs Clean Channel Technology the efficiency increased up to 15%.
Clean channel technology mainly provides lower roll off factors, 5%, 10% or 15% resulting in better
spectral shape.
