This brings us to the last details of the DVB-T standard related to actual
field experience: the constellation and the levels of the individual carriers.
Depending on the type of constellation (QPSK, 16QAM or 64QAM, hier-
archical with Α = 1, 2 or 4), a mean signal value of the payload carriers is
obtained which can be calculated simply by means of the quadratic mean
(RMS value) of all possible vector lengths in their correct distribution.
This mean is then defined as 100% or simply as One. In the case of the 2K
mode, there are 1512 or 6048 payload carriers, the mean power of which is
100% or One. The TPS carrier levels are set in the same way exactly in re-
lation to the individual payload carriers. The continual and scattered pilots
are differently arranged. Due to the need for easy detectability, these pilots
