FTP 

File Transfer Protocol: A protocol used to transfer files over a 

TCP/IP network (Internet, UNIX, etc.). For example, after developing 

the HTML pages for a Web site on a local machine, they are 

typically uploaded to the Web server, using FTP. Unlike e-mail 

programs in which graphics and program files have to be attached, 

FTP is designed to handle binary files directly and does not add the 

overhead of encoding and decoding the data. 

G.703 

The ITU-T standard which defines the physical and electrical 

characteristics of hierarchical digital interfaces. 

GOP  

Group of Pictures: MPEG video compression works more effectively 

by processing a number of video frames as a block. The Ericsson 

AB Encoder normally uses a 12 frame GOP; every twelfth frame is 

an I frame. 

GUI 

Graphical User Interface: The use of pictures rather than just words 

to represent the input and output of a program. A program with a 

GUI runs under a windowing system and has a screen interface 

capable of displaying graphics in the form of icons, drop-down 

menus and a movable pointer. The on-screen information is usually 

controlled / manipulated by a mouse or keyboard. 

 

H.264 

ITU-T H.264 which has been incorporated into MPEG-4 Part 10, 

Advanced Video Coding - see MPEG-4. 

H.265 

ITU-T H.265. A standard that defines HEVC decoding. 

HDTV 

High Definition Television. 

HEVC 

High Efficiency Video Coding. This video encoding method is a 

successor to AVC. 

HPA  

High Power Amplifier: Used in the signal path to amplify the 

modulated and up-converted broadcast signal for feeding to the 

uplink antenna. 

HSYNC 

Horizontal (line) SYNCs.  

HTTP 

HyperText Transfer Protocol. The fundamental protocol used on the 

Internet for transmission of  WEB pages and other data between 

servers and PCs 

HU 

Height Unit 

Hub 

A device in a multi-point network at which branch nodes 

interconnect. 

ICAM  

Integrated Conditional Access Module: Embedded in the IRD and 

responsible for descrambling, plus packet filtering and reception. It 

also contains the physical interface to the subscriber’s viewing card. 

ICMP 

Internet Control Message Protocol. ICMP messages, delivered in IP 

packets, are used for out-of-band messages related to network 

operation or mis-operation

 

IGMP 

Internet Group Management Protocol. IGMP

 

is a protocol used to 

manage multicasts on the Internet. For a host (receiver unit) to 

receive a multicast, it needs to transmit IGMP "join" messages on 

the right format. Three versions exist. IGMPv2 is common today but 

IGMPv3 is the next step
