Abstract

The principal aim of this paper is to cancel out the natural and man-made echoes in single-frequency networks (SFN). The challenge is to detect and remove feedback echoes and enhance the intelligibility of the essential parameters in SFN of digital terrestrial television broadcasting (DTTB) transmitter systems, especially the Modulation Error Ratio (MER), with optimizing coverage areas. We suggest a Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) gap filler (GF) with two types of echo cancelling: Digital Adaptive Equalizer (DAE) and Doppler Enhanced Echo Canceller (DEEC). The proposed GF outperforms standard GF (SGF), finite impulse response filter (FIR GF), and adaptive GF (AGF) techniques by 33%, 17%, and 13%, respectively. Furthermore, the obtained MER makes the proposed GF (PGF) ideal for operating in SFN using Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (COFDM) technique.
