16.1.17.1 Physical and Baseband Layer Efficiency
MDM9000 >> Modulator >> Modulation
Physical Layer Efficiency
The measured physical layer efficiency is equal to the percentage of non-dummy physical layer
frames.
Baseband Layer Efficiency
The measured baseband layer efficiency is equal to the percentage user data inside the baseband
frames.
16.1.17.2 Physical Layer Scrambling
Physical layer scrambling is performed on each physical layer frame (excluding the Physical layer
header) to perform energy dispersal of the modulated signal.
For more information on Physical Layer Scrambling, refer to the DVB-S2 standard:
ETSI EN 302 307.
