FEATURES
Allows the creation of transport streams (TS) for generating test files.
Supports any Transport Stream with MPEG-2, DVB, ATSC or ISDB syntax
Capable of simultaneously playing and recording multiple transport streams for test generation purpose
Multiplexes (in real time) multiple elements such as elementary streams, SI/PSI and PSIP
Offers detailed real-time MPEG-2 analysis of a TS at the ASI maximum bitrate of 212 Mbits/s
Makes TR101290 measurements, including PCR, PTS and DTS measurements
Measures bitrates of every program and PID present in the transport stream with 1 bit resolution
Capable of extended error logging and condition logging
Supports MPE, data piping, addressable sections, JSAT and data streaming
Offers detailed off-line analysis of the MPEG-2 transport stream
Provides two options for video and audio elementary stream analysis: Standard ES Analysis and Advanced ES Analysis
Closed Caption Analysis can extract and decode NTSC services as well as the DTVCC services embedded in the transport stream
Provides the analysis of program streams used in DVD applications, extracts the elementary stream and then can create a new transport stream from it
Provides the user with a known base library of test streams

Applications
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.
