The Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is an extension of H.264/AVC offering temporal, spatial, and quality scalability. Compared to the non-scalable profile of H.264/AVC, SVC allows layered transmission of video data. Variable Coding and Modulation (VCM) based DVB-S2 Video Broadcasting Systems enables effective selection of modulation modes and FEC code-rates offering differentiated error protection. In this work the usage of SVC with the DVB-S2 VCM mode has been investigated.
