This paper provides a brief introduction to the DVB-S system based on [EN-300-421]. The DVB-S system provides direct-to-home (DTH) services for consumer integrated receiver decoders (IRD), as well as collective antenna systems (satellite master antenna television SMATV) and cable television head-end stations. The overview covers the physical layer that comprises adaptation, framing, coding, interleaving and modulation, and discusses error performance requirements to achieve quality of service (QoS) targets.
