The TV transmitters of the TLx9 transmitter family cover the range between 470 MHz
and 790 MHz (UHF band IV/V) and support the digital standards DVB-T, DVB-T2 and
ISDB-T
(B)
. With the retransmitter option it is going to support DVB-T/T2 only. Analog TV
standards are not supported.
The TLx9 series follows the concept of one product for all scenarios. The TLx9-plat-
form is able to address the applications digital TV transmitter, digital radio transmitter
for band III and GapFiller for many digital standards.
Regarding firmware and software, the TLx9 will apply the Tx9 platform which allows
having a common software and firmware framework for all transmitter systems being
part of the Tx9 generation.
