In ABS, in anti-collision radar and also in simple laundry dryers, these sensors measure the process param- eters of interest directly at the site of occurrence. In microwave applications, sensors help to ensure that the physical dimen- sion “power” can be measured directly at the source. This approach keeps any influences that might invalidate the results to a minimum. During the last ten years, Rohde&Schwarz has helped to ensure that yesterday’s simple trans- ducers have evolved into powerful min- iature measuring instruments such as the new R&S®NRP-Z57 thermal power sensor. The sensor has a continuous frequency range from DC to 67 GHz, and, in the application shown above, is used to per- form power measurements at the chip level using embedding.

  • Before the Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 in the Matter Of: Petition for Rulemaking to Amend the Land
    Before the Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 In the Matter of: ) ) Petition for Rulemaking to Amend ) RM the Land Mobile-TV Sharing Rules ) in the 470-512 MHz Band ) ) PETITION FOR RULEMAKING BY THE NATIONAL PUBLIC SAFETY TELECOMMUNICATIONS COUNCIL The National Public Safety Telecommunications Council (NPSTC) submits this Petition for Rulemaking recommending that the Commission amend its rules which address land mobile/television sharing criteria in the 470-512 MHz band. The current rules were adopted over 35 years ago based on analog television receiver performance at that time. The transition from analog to digital television (DTV), scheduled to be completed by June 12, 2009, provides the opportunity to amend the rules to provide greater flexibility in the eleven markets where land mobile sharing is allowed. As digital receivers are less susceptible to interference than analog receivers, NPSTC’s recommended rule changes can be implemented without negatively impacting television viewing. The result of such modifications will provide significant benefits to public safety and other land mobile users of the band and allow more efficient use of the scarce spectrum resource. The National Public Safety Telecommunications Council The National Public Safety Telecommunications Council (NPSTC) is a federation of public safety organizations whose mission is to improve public safety communications and interoperability through collaborative leadership. NPSTC pursues the role of resource and advocate for public safety organizations in the United States on matters relating to public safety telecommunications. NPSTC has promoted implementation of the Public Safety Wireless Advisory Committee (PSWAC) and the 700 MHz Public Safety National Coordination Committee (NCC) recommendations.

  • Mobile Television Services Are Described
    ESPOO 2003 VTT PUBLICATIONS 506 VTT PUBLICATIONS 506 Watching television from a wireless pen tablet or pocket-sized terminal is interesting in many situations. Public and private transportation vehicles, and public places are potential environments for mobile television services. Even in homes, mobile television handsets are interesting, both as a personal Mobile television - technology and user experiences. Report on the ... television set and as a tool for establishing closer interaction with the television programs. This publication presents results about people´s real interest in mobile television. The results come from interviewing a large number of persons and from building and trialing a prototype system. A total of 293 people took part in the interviews and the trial. The trial system combined several types of wireless networks in a 4G fashion. It took digital terrestrial television broadcasts from the air and delivered them over the Internet to mobile terminals in hot-spot areas covered by Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN). Two kinds of terminals were used - a pocket-sized PDA and an A5- sized tablet PC. In the field trial the user could watch almost the entire program content of the three leading Finnish TV channels. The user was also able to access all programs transmitted during the previous week from the media server (TV-Anytime feature). This publication is intended for producers and distributors of television content, as well as for people in the handset device industry; it is also useful for students and people who are generally interested in the future of television. The publication starts with a review of television usage patterns and early experiences of digital television and mobile television trials around the world.

In this Handbook, new digital broadcasting technologies were explained in detail, for example a splendid description of the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coding that is the basis of all past and present TV compression systems, as well as a very instructive chapter on signal power summation. Most of that content are not repeated in this new Handbook on Digital Terrestrial Television Broadcasting Networks and Systems Implementation. Therefore, the version 1.01, which was published by ITU in the year 2002, has not lost value and should still be consulted.
