MPEG Analyzer

RF & MPEG Signal Diagnostics & Troubleshooting

Tektronix MPEG Analysis Instruments are the industry standard for MPEG stream analysis and interoperability testing. A key part of delivering a quality experience is finding the root cause of problems in the transport stream. Tektronix MPEG Analyzer Software allows you to go as deep as you need into the transport, PES and elementary streams to track down sources of picture anomalies or Transport Streams with errored syntax. The ability to capture events for deep analysis is critical to identifying the root cause of problems, and our QoE software analysis tools shorten the time to finding the root cause by identifying impairments and artifacts that can be traced directly to network issues.

Title

Testing the MPEG2 Transport Stream

The protocols involved in iTV are very complex. A full understanding of them is necessary, not only to ensure that iTV can be delivered in a flexible way, but in a way that provides the responsiveness that a consumer expects and ultimately pays for.

Encoder Testing

As broadcasters make the transition from exclusively analog video broadcasting to programming that includes compressed digital video, digital encoder designers are faced with the need to understand the MPEG-2 compression standard and the role it plays in designing robust MPEG equipment

MPEG-2 Decoder Design & Test

Consumers are rapidly switching from their old analog TV set top boxes to the newer digital boxes in order to get higher-quality video, higher channel counts, and the extra services provided by digital broadcasters.
