- Receiving systems of the type mentioned at the beginning can be connected on the one hand to antenna cables from the parabolic mirror and on the other hand to a receiver.
- the participants In order to be able to receive programs under public law, in particular the 1st and 2nd programs, the participants must also be able to receive terrestrial programs which can be connected to the television or receiver via terrestrial lines. The consequence of this is that the reception of all programs requires a large number of cables and a high level of wiring, which is undesirable.
- DE 35 43 229 C1 describes a home distribution network for single and communal antenna systems in which the interconnection of 2 terrestrial frequency ranges - FM and TV with 2 satellite IF ranges (from left - and right-hand polarization) - to 2 Coaxial cable and decoupling through antenna sockets with directional coupling - characteristic goes.
- the components that can be plugged together are different components.
- Two separate cables must be installed up to the end user (2-Sat IF signals).
- DE-AS 22 01 783 describes a busbar arrangement for community antenna systems, onto which amplifiers or converters can be plugged.
- the object of the invention is to remedy this.
- the invention is implemented in any case if a head-end station is present which consists of modules which can be plugged together and have inputs and outputs for terrestrial and satellite frequencies.
- the switch modules are designed in such a way that they can be connected directly to one another without any wiring. This allows head stations with up to 38 users to be set up quickly and easily.
- a particularly useful embodiment provides that the modules can be connected in series. Within the scope of this inventive concept, it is expedient if at least two rows of modules can be connected in parallel to one another.
- the modules each have three inputs and three outputs, three of which are provided as connections for subscribers, while the other three outputs are simultaneously provided as connecting bodies between two modules are.
- the inputs are designed in such a way that they can be plugged together with the outputs of the neighboring module.
- a basic module is provided which can be connected to a power supply, has three inputs and at least three subscriber outputs.
- a head-end station 10 for satellite community reception systems is shown with building blocks 12 and 13 which can be connected to one another in an operational manner and with satellite IF inputs 14 and outputs 16, of which the building blocks 12 are of identical construction, while the building block 13 is constructed as a basic building block which can be connected to a power supply 20 and has three inputs 16 and 49 and four outputs 19. Via the cable 22, the output 19 can be connected to an antenna socket (satellite / terrestrial). A connection to a receiver 24 can be established via a terrestrial line 44 and a satellite line 46.
- the satellite exterior 30 consists of a parabolic mirror 32, an H / V switch 38 and the coaxial cables 40 and 42 for transmitting the signals LNC horizontal 34 and LNC vertical 36.
- the cable 40 transmits level 1, while the cable 42 transmits the Level 2 transmits.
- the terrestrial exterior 26 is connected via a multi-range amplifier 28 and the line 29 to the input for terrestrial frequencies 44.
- the reference number 49 designates the terrestrial output of the first module and the terrestrial input of the adjacent module.
- the connections 14, 44 and 16, 49 are designed in such a way that they also enable plug connections between the neighboring modules.
- the subscriber connections 18, 19 transmit the terrestrial frequency range and at the same time each a satellite IF frequency range. Switching between the two Sat IF frequency ranges is done by varying the DC voltage at the subscriber output between 14 and 18 volts. The terrestrial frequency range remains unaffected.
- the frequency of the terrestrial frequency range is in the range of 47 - 862 MHz, while the frequency of the satellite IF frequency range covers the frequencies of 950 - 1750 MHz.
- the head-end station 10 consists of the basic unit 13 (SVG 3/4) for supplying up to 4 participants. There are three inputs 16, 49 (2 x satellite IF and 1 x terrestrial frequency range) and four outputs (four participants) are provided.
- the modules 12 (expansion units SVE 3/3) can be plugged together with the basic unit 3.
- a multi-range amplifier MA 32 R06 can also be provided as a plug-in unit if no existing amplifier is used.
- the modules 12 have integrated amplifiers to compensate for the distribution losses.
- the system is dimensioned so that each divider receives the same RF level regardless of the position of its socket and regardless of the number of modules (size of the head-end station).

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kopfstation für Gemeinschaftsempfangsanlagen nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a head-end station for community reception systems according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
Empfangsanlagen der eingangs genannten Art sind zum einen an Antennenkabel vom Parabol - spiegel und zum anderen an einen Receiver an - schließbar. Um auch öffentlich - rechtliche Pro - gramme, insbesondere das 1. und das 2. Programm, empfangen zu können, müssen die Teil - nehmer auch terrestrische Programme empfangen können, die mit dem Fernseher bzw. Receiver über terrestrische Leitungen verbindbar sind. Dies hat zur Folge, daß der Empfang aller Programme eine Vielzahl von Kabeln und einen hohen Verschal - tungsaufwand voraussetzt, was unerwünscht ist. In der DE 35 43 229 C1 ist ein Hausverteilernetz für Einzel - und Gemeinschaftsantennenanlagen be - schrieben, bei dem es um die Zusammenschaltung von 2 terrestrischen Frequenzbereichen - FM und TV mit 2 Sat-ZF Bereichen (von links - und rechtsdrehender Polarisation) - auf 2 Koaxialkabel und die Auskopplung durch Antennensteckdosen mit Richtkoppel - Charakteristik geht. Bei den zu - sammensteckbaren Bausteinen (terrestrische Ver - stärker, Weichen, Sat-ZF-Verstärker) handelt es sich um unterschiedliche Komponenten. Dabei müssen 2 getrennte Kabel bis zum Endverbraucher (2-Sat-ZF-Signale) installiert werden. Ferner ist in der DE-AS 22 01 783 eine Sammelschiene - nanordnung für Gemeinschaftsantennenanlagen beschrieben, auf die Verstärker oder Umsetzer aufgesteckt werden können.Receiving systems of the type mentioned at the beginning can be connected on the one hand to antenna cables from the parabolic mirror and on the other hand to a receiver. In order to be able to receive programs under public law, in particular the 1st and 2nd programs, the participants must also be able to receive terrestrial programs which can be connected to the television or receiver via terrestrial lines. The consequence of this is that the reception of all programs requires a large number of cables and a high level of wiring, which is undesirable. DE 35 43 229 C1 describes a home distribution network for single and communal antenna systems in which the interconnection of 2 terrestrial frequency ranges - FM and TV with 2 satellite IF ranges (from left - and right-hand polarization) - to 2 Coaxial cable and decoupling through antenna sockets with directional coupling - characteristic goes. The components that can be plugged together (terrestrial amplifiers, crossovers, satellite IF amplifiers) are different components. Two separate cables must be installed up to the end user (2-Sat IF signals). Furthermore, DE-AS 22 01 783 describes a busbar arrangement for community antenna systems, onto which amplifiers or converters can be plugged.
Ausgehend von dem obigen Stand der Technik liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, hier Abhilfe zu schaffen.Starting from the above prior art, the object of the invention is to remedy this.
Die gestellte Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1 gelöst.The object is achieved according to the invention by the features of claim 1.
Man erkennt, daß die Erfindung jedenfalls dann verwirklicht ist, wenn eine Kopfstation vorhanden ist, die aus miteinander zusammensteckbaren Bausteinen mit Eingängen und Ausgängen für Terrestrische - und Sat - Frequenzen besteht. Die Umschaltbausteine sind hierbei so beschaffen, daß sie sich ohne Verschaltungsaufwand direkt anein - ander stecken lassen. Damit können Kopfstationen mit bis zu 38 Teilnehmern problemlos und schnell aufgebaut werden.It can be seen that the invention is implemented in any case if a head-end station is present which consists of modules which can be plugged together and have inputs and outputs for terrestrial and satellite frequencies. The switch modules are designed in such a way that they can be connected directly to one another without any wiring. This allows head stations with up to 38 users to be set up quickly and easily.

Eine besonders zweckmäßige Ausgestaltung sieht vor, daß die Bausteine in Reihe schaltbar sind. Im Rahmen dieses Erfindungsgedankens ist es zweckmäßig, wenn mindestens zwei Reihen von Bausteinen parallel zueinander schaltbar sind.A particularly useful embodiment provides that the modules can be connected in series. Within the scope of this inventive concept, it is expedient if at least two rows of modules can be connected in parallel to one another.
Bezüglich einer konkreten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist es zweckmäßig, wenn die Bausteine jeweils drei Eingänge und jeweils drei Ausgänge besitzen, von denen drei Ausgänge als Anschlüsse für Teilnehmer vorgesehen sind, während die an - deren drei Ausgänge gleichzeitig als Verbin - dungskörper zwischen jeweils zwei Bausteinen vorgesehen sind. Dabei sind die Eingänge so beschaffen, daß sie mit den Ausgängen des benach - barten Bausteines zusammensteckbar sind. Schließlich sieht eine zweckmäßige Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vor, daß ein Grundbaustein vorge - sehen ist, der an eine Stromversorgung anschließ - bar ist, drei Eingänge und mindestens drei Teil - nehmerausgänge aufweist.With regard to a specific embodiment of the invention, it is expedient if the modules each have three inputs and three outputs, three of which are provided as connections for subscribers, while the other three outputs are simultaneously provided as connecting bodies between two modules are. The inputs are designed in such a way that they can be plugged together with the outputs of the neighboring module. Finally, an expedient embodiment of the invention provides that a basic module is provided which can be connected to a power supply, has three inputs and at least three subscriber outputs.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung schematisch dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher erläutert.An embodiment of the invention is shown schematically in the drawing and is explained in more detail below.
In der Zeichnung ist eine Kopfstation 10 für Satellitengemeinschaftsempfangsanlagen mit bau - kastenartig und betrieblich miteinander verbindbaren Bausteinen 12 und 13 mit Sat-ZF-Eingängen 14 und Ausgängen 16 dargestellt, von denen die Bausteine 12 gleichartig ausgebildet sind, während der Baustein 13 als ein Grundbaustein ausgebildet ist, der an eine Stromversorgung 20 anschließbar ist und drei Eingänge 16 und 49 sowie vier Aus - gänge 19 aufweist. Über das Kabel 22 kann der Ausgang 19 an eine Antennensteckdose (Sat/terrestrisch) angeschlossen sein. Über eine terrestrische Leitung 44 und eine Sat - Leitung 46 ist eine Verbindung mit einem Receiver 24 herstellbar. Die Satellitenaußenheit 30 besteht aus ei - nem Parabolspiegel 32, einer H/V-Weiche 38 und den Koaxialkabeln 40 und 42 zur Übertragung der Signale LNC horizontal 34 bzw. LNC vertikal 36. Das Kabel 40 überträgt die Ebene 1, während das Kabel 42 die Ebene 2 überträgt. Die terrestrische Außenheit 26 ist über einen Mehrbereichverstärker 28 und die Leitung 29 an den Eingang für terrestrische Frequenzen 44 angeschlossen. Mit der Bezugsziffer 49 ist gleichzeitig der terrestrische Ausgang des ersten Bausteins und der terrestri - sche Eingang des benachbarten Bausteins bezeichnet. Die Anschlüsse 14, 44 und 16, 49 sind so beschaffen, daß sie gleichzeitig auch Steckverbin - dungen zwischen den benachbarten Bausteinen ermöglichen. Die Teilnehmeranschlüsse 18, 19 übertragen den terrestrischen Frequenzbereich und gleichzeitig jeweils einen Sat - ZF - Frequenzbe - reich. Die Umschaltung zwischen den beiden Sat-ZF-Frequenzbereichen erfolgt durch Variation der Gleichspannung am Teilnehmerausgang zwischen 14 und 18 Volt. Der terrestrische Frequenzbereich bleibt davon unbeeinflußt. Die Frequenz des terrestrischen Frequenzbereichs liegt im Bereich von 47 - 862 MHz, während die Frequenz des Sat-ZF-Frequenzbereiches die Frequenzen von 950 - 1750 MHz abdeckt. Im einzelnen besteht die Kopfstation 10 aus der Grundeinheit 13 (SVG 3/4) zur Versorgung von bis zu 4 Teilnehmern. Es sind drei Eingänge 16, 49 (2 x Sat-ZF- und 1 x terrestrischer Frequenzbereich) und vier Ausgänge (vier Teilnehmer) vorgesehen. Die Bausteine 12 (Erweiterungseinheiten SVE 3/3) sind mit der Grundeinheit 3 zusammensteckbar. Es kann ferner auch ein Mehrbereichverstärker MA 32 R06 als Vorsteckeinheit vorgesehen sein, wenn kein vorhandener Verstärker genutzt wird.In the drawing, a head-
Die Bausteine 12 besitzen integrierte Verstärker zum Ausgleich der Verteilerverluste. Das System ist so dimensioniert, daß jeder Teiler unab - hängig von der Position seiner Anschlußbuchse und unabhängig von der Anzahl der Bausteine (Größe der Kopfstation) die gleichen HF-Pegel erhält. Die Erweiterung der Kopfstation auf die ge - wünschte Teilnehmerzahl geschieht durch Aufstecken von Erweiterungseinheiten 12. Die Einspeisung der terrestrischen Frequenzbereiche erfolgt entweder direkt am ersten SVE - Baustein von der vorhandenen Hausanlage oder durch Verwen - dung des ebenfalls aufsteckbaren Mehrbereich - verstärkers 1 (MA 32 R06). Die Kopfstation ist bis 19 Teilnehmeranschlüsse ausbaubar. Mehr Teil - nehmeranschlüsse sind möglich durch Zusam - menschalten von SVE/SVG - Blöcken am Eingang mit Verteilern.The
