Design and Development of an LNB based DVB-S receiver

Abstract

This paper introduces an LNB-based DVB-S receiver with respect to sync byte detection. The basic configuration of DVB-S for decoding is the major focus of this work, where the main task is to decode the received signal from the satellite with a good SNR. Sync byte detection is one of the challenges of receiver design. An algorithm is developed to overcome the problems associated with Sync byte detection which can efficiently perform Sync-byte detection. After decoding the signal, the SNR is found to be 9.62 dB, which represents quiet a good signal. A channel list is identified in the final result.
