DVB-T2 is offering a new way for broadcasting value-added services to end users, such as High Denition (HD) TV and 3D TV. Thanks to the advances made in digital signal processing, and specically in channel coding, DVB- T2 brings an increased transfer capacity of 50% and a new exibility in services' broadcasting in contrast with the rst generation DVB-T standard. As DVB-T2 is still in deployment's test, simulation model could be an interesting way to evaluate the performance of this network in supporting new value-added services. In this paper, we describe the new features and enhancements we have integrated within the DVB-T2 module in OPNET, and in particular: (i) a realistic physical model;(ii) an MPEG-TS layer with an IP encapsulator;(iii) hierarchical application layer ables to use pcap traces to simulate real video traces. Also, we include an extensive simulation campaign in order to well understand the performance of DVB-T2 networks.
