  Abstract

This paper compares and analyzes the transmission performance of the OpenCable system and the DVB-C system which are adopted as the digital CATV transmission standard in U.S.A. and Europe respectively through computer simulation under the same channel environment. We considered the channel environment including the random noise and the CTB (Composite Tripple Beats) noise as channel impairments in order to compare the two standard fairly. Additionally, we analyzed the transmission performance of the OpenCable system for the various interleaving depths. We implemented each transmission system by software, and we analyzed BER values with respect to the C/N in order to compare their transmission performance. As a result of the computer simulation, to get the BER of 10^-6 the OpenCable system requires 1.2 dB lower C/N than the DVB-C system in the 64-QAM mode, and the two system require similar C/N in the 256-QAM mode.
