Providing Local Content in a Hybrid Single Frequency Network using Hierarchical Modulation
Hong Jiang, Paul Wilford, Steve Wilkus

TL;DR
This paper proposes a hierarchical modulation scheme for hybrid satellite-terrestrial networks to efficiently transmit global and local content, enhancing local content delivery in DVB-SH systems.
Contribution
It introduces a hierarchical modulation method that enables simultaneous transmission of global and local content in hybrid networks, with analysis of system performance.
Findings
Hierarchical modulation effectively transmits both content types.
Global content is prioritized in satellite transmission.
Performance analysis shows system viability.
Abstract
A hierarchical modulation method is proposed for providing local content in a hybrid satellite and terrestrial single frequency network such DVB-SH. The hierarchical modulation is used to transmit both global and local content in terrestrial transmitters. The global content is transmitted with high priority layer of the hierarchical modulation, and the local content is modulated with the low priority layer of the hierarchical modulation. The satellite transmits global content only. The performance of the hierarchical system for both global and local content is analyzed.
