Development
The MAP 1853 is designed to be used in DTV
labs. With the capability of playing and analyzing up to 4 TS streams at bitrate
up to 212Mbits/s simultaneously (total of 320 Mbits/s), it provides a
powerful diagnostic tool to any digital Video Engineer. Each bit can be
parsed and analyzed from the Transport Stream packets to the DCT coefficients
of the video compression.
DTV Broadcast Environment
With the implementation of complex DTV equipment,
the broadcasters need a rapid, easy to use analysis tool to pinpoint errors
and potential interoperability problems in their system. The MAP 1853 offers
all the necessary tools to achieve a compliant ATSC transmitted signal. It
also provides detailed monitoring on PSIP, bitrate allocation and even data broadcast.
IP over MPEG providers
The MAP 1853 is designed to offer providers
of IP over MPEG with a detailed troubleshooting tool. It also provides an
easy way to monitor bandwidth delivery of each service to each customer or
group of customers for billing application for example.

Manufacturing
The MAP 1853 is suitable for manufacturing/ QA
and repair facilities as it provides a fixed, well known, easy to operate
Transport Stream signal source used to verify that the products under test
operate as desired. The networking capabilities of the Transport Streamers
allow
the engineer to upload test content to the manufacturing
line without having to physically be present. In case of hard to solve
problems, the analysis portion of the MAP 1853 ensures a low down time of the
production line.
System integration
The MAP 1853 is designed for signal path
testing as it can simulate a well-known error free transport stream output as
well as analyze an incoming signal. With all the potential interoperability
issues, the MAP 1853 will ensure a fast and reliable integration of different
technologies. Also, as the MAP 1853 supports MPEG-2, DVB, ATSC and ISDB
standards, you can be assured that it will be compatible with the equipment
that is being deployed in digital facilities.
Field support and repair
The field support engineer often needs to
analyze signals from and to the equipment under test and make quick
diagnostics of the problems in an environment where down time isn’t
acceptable. The MAP 1853 offers all the necessary tools for field analysis
and troubleshooting. It also allows capture of a Transport Stream for
analysis back at the office.
