Alcatel-Lucent Unlimited Mobile TV Solution is based on DVB-H/SH standards
The complete Alcatel-Lucent solu- tion gives you the most flexibility for a mobile TV service designed for efficient operation and optimum coverage. Based on DVB family mobile TV standards, it offers wide spectrum availability, from UHF up to 3GHz. It allows you to choose the best combination of DVB-H and DVB- SH technologies for your market. And it accommodates multiple infrastruc- ture options, from satellite, to broad- cast towers and cellular sites.
And as a true pioneer of the DVB- SH technology, Alcatel-Lucent has established an ecosystem of industrial and research partners to optimize the delivery of Unlimited Mobile TV based on this new technology.
New DVB-SH Specification Enables Delivery of Mobile Multimedia Services Using Hybrid Satellite/Terrestrial Networks
The new Digital Video Broadcasting-Satellite services to Handhelds (DVB-SH) specification is an evolution of the Digital Video Broadcasting-Handheld (DVB-H) standard. It enhances the range of DVB standards for the delivery of mobile digital television.
The DVB-SH standard enables the delivery of IP-based media content and data to handheld terminals like mobile phones and PDAs via satellite. It has been designed for frequencies below 3 GHz. It com- plements the existing DVB-H physical layer standard and uses the DVB IP Datacast (IPDC) set of content delivery, electronic service guide and service purchase and protection standards.
DVB-SH includes features such as turbo coding for forward error correction and a highly flexible interleaver in an advanced system designed to cope with a hybrid satellite/terrestrial network topology. Satellite transmission ensures wide area coverage and the terrestrial component assures coverage where the satellite signal cannot be received, as may be the case in urban areas.
