Full Description

This document defines a Standard for System Information (SI) compatible with MPEG-2compliant digital multiplex bitstreams constructed in accordance with ISO/IEC 13818-1(MPEG-2) and transmitted over satellite for distribution on cable and MMDS. Thedocument defines the standard protocol that carries relevant System Information (SI)tables contained within packets carried in the transport multiplex. The term SI will beused to refer to system-wide information in the Network Packet Identifier (PID).

This standard is replacing the previous standards for satellite delivery (see ReferencesError! Reference source not found. and Error! Reference source not found.). Thereader should note that not all applications use this standard for SI delivery. SI for cableapplications have been superceded by SCTE 65 2002 (Reference 20) and ATSC StandardA/65B (Reference 21). Other common standards for this application are written by theDigital Video Broadcasting Project (DVB) and standardized by ETSI. (See references 22through 25).
