Additionally FEFs may be enabled and disabled over time and the FEF content may be<br />

changed dynamically. One application of this is to allow interference into the wanted channel<br />

to be measured on a live system. A test for this scenario is described below.<br />

The receiver should be able to continue normal reception throughout these changes of <strong>DVB</strong>-<br />

<strong>T2</strong> signal configuration without requiring a channel rescan, however it is acceptable for the<br />

receiver to re-acquire the channel during the transition phases when FEFs are being enabled<br />

or disabled, causing a brief interruption in reception.<br />

To test receiver conformance, the receiver should be able to acquire and display error free<br />

video without requiring a channel re-scan each time the input is switched from a <strong>DVB</strong>-<strong>T2</strong><br />

signal configured as mode 8, to a <strong>DVB</strong>-<strong>T2</strong> signal configured as shown in Table 19, followed<br />

by switching back to the original mode 8 input.<br />

It is acceptable to have signal breaks during switching if necessary for re-configuring the<br />

<strong>DVB</strong>-<strong>T2</strong> modulator and demodulator, but there should be no picture failures after each<br />

transition phase once the receiver has re-acquired.<br />
