PSQ Technologies and TANDBERG Television won the contract for IRIB’s DVB-T headends

 

PSQ Technologies and TANDBERG Television won the contract for two DVB-T headends for Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB). These headends will be the first in a series of Digital Terrestrial Transmission (DTT) installations in Iran.

IRIB, the government owned Broadcasting Corporation, make great leap forward by introducing DVB-T technology to distribute television signals to the public in Tehran. PSQ Technologies Inc. has helped pave the way for the national broadcaster to reach another important milestone. Through this project, IRIB will implement the most efficient television distribution system providing public with high quality, diverse programming. This will be a free-to-air digital TV service, transmitting programming in MPEG-4 across the country.

New business development

 

Being specialized in system integration for Satellite Broadcasting, we need to increase our service offering  internationally. Fast growing technology in broadcasting is demanding more activities in emerging market in Asia. To support PSQ’s local business partners’ activities in Pakistan and Bangladesh, our marketing manager travelled to the region discussing with them the most advanced technologies in digital broadcasting and PSQ’s expertise in this field.  In this trip he visited Bangladesh Telegraph and Telephone Board (BTTB) and Bangladesh TV (BTV) in order to introduce our company and to gain familiarity with their requirements. In his visit from Pakistan, he visited Pakistan TV(PTV) and Shalimar Recording& Broadcasting Company (SRBC).

Installation of four 3+1 system

 

PSQ and Tandberg TV completed the site integration and installation of four 3+1 systems for the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB). These systems were built in the facility of  IRIB’s subsidiary Takta, and will be transferred to four major cities in Iran. The team was supported by our engineers in Pishrotazan, PSQ’s Iranian branch.

Integration of 10 sets of DVB-T monitoring

 

The integration of the 10 sets of DVB-T monitoring has been started in our integration center in Tehran, Iran. This project was awarded in the Q1 of 2007. It includes ten sets of DVB terrestrial monitoring for the signals coming from different satellite sources. Each link receives three QPSK inputs,  and ASI streams will be multiplexed as one TS to be fed to the monitoring unit  and retransmitted through a local microwave transmitter. The system works with MPEG2 format.

Two 1+1 system

 

Our integration team in Tehran have started the integration of two 1+1 systems. This project was awarded to PSQ in the Q1 of 2007. It is about two 1+1 uplinks to be installed in Tehran with two 42U, 19” racks for each uplink responsible for delivering the nodal signals to the satellite transponders. The system has the flexibility to function as 1+1 and 2+0. One of the uplink systems is MPEG2 format and the other is MPEG4.

PSQ is awarded to a 3+1 uplink  system

 

PSQ’s local branch, Pishrotazan, announced that they won the contract for an uplink system . It is a 3+1 uplink system including three 42U 19” racks that they are responsible for receiving camera signals and send them to the satellite transponder. The system has a flexibility to be controlled by software to function as 2+2, 3+1 and 4+0 combinations .Further, all video and audio signals will be converted to digital before any compression process. The main core of the system consists of encoders, multiplexers; and control and management.  The system has the flexibility to compress data in both MPE2 and MPEG4 formats.

IRIR Project is completed

 

PSQ Technologies Inc. has been awarded E3 and E1 video links between the main centers of the Islamic Republic Iranian Railways (IRIR). The system was installed in Tehran, Mashad and Shahroud in March 2007. The rest of the system will be installed by IRIR engineering team with the support of Pishrotazan, PSQ’s Iranian branch. There will be two extra links from Tehran to the south and one to the west.  In order to be prepared for this installation, the IRIR engineering team received theoretical as well as on site practical training. The theoretical part was done in March 2007 and the practical one was completed last week. IRIR was very pleased with the course. Mr. Sep, the director of IRIR communication Network expressed his gratitude towards PSQ’s effort and Tandberg TV’s team.

3+1 Uplink, Kerman

 

3+1 Uplink for the city of Kerman was awarded to PSQ Technologies in early 2006. For the baseband, Tandberg TV EN5710 encoders, MX5620 multiplexers and SM6615 satellite modulators were chosen for this project. For the RF part 1+1 SSPB was used.  This system is reconfigurable to a 2+2 system and to a 4+0 without redundancy. The system has been assembled by IRIB engineers with the support of our engineering team. In this project, PSQ’s engineers enjoyed the support of Mr. Omar Hawary from Tandberg TV.   The IRIB installation team received one day on site training for later repairs and debugging of the system.
