The service works by receiving a specialised digital TV broadcast signal from the air in much the same way as televisions at home will do in future. Channel guides will also be broadcast allowing users to keep abreast of the latest programs on air. It is not the same as a streaming video service over 3G or GPRS, but one which is optimised for longer period TV viewing by large numbers of simultaneous users with high picture quality and low battery power consumption.

  • Internationalization of the Japanese Digital Terrestrial Television Broadcasting System, ISDB-T from Development of the Transmission System to Its Adoption in Brazil
    Internationalization of the Japanese Digital Terrestrial Television Broadcasting System, ISDB-T From development of the transmission system to its adoption in Brazil On June 29, 2006, the Brazilian government announced that it had chosen to use a digital terrestrial television broadcasting system based on Japanese Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting - Terrestrial (ISDB-T). This is the first time that the ISDB-T system had been chosen for Digital Terrestrial Television outside of Japan. The Brazilian government cited several reasons for choosing ISDB-T, including technical superiority, system flexibility, and promotional activities. This paper describes the development and standardization of ISDB-T in Japan and in ITU-R, as well as activities to promote the system internationally. We had thought that a multipath-proof technique would be necessary, from experience with terrestrial digital transmissions such as TELETEXT and FM multiplex broadcasting. Hence, we began studying orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) at the end of 1980's. This effort led to BST-OFDM (Band Segmented Transmission - OFDM), which is a major feature of ISDB-T. Since 1997, NHK Labs. and DTV-Lab. Co. had been studying a transmission system for digital terrestrial television broadcasting (DTTB). We jointly proposed the transmission system as a DTTB system to ARIB. The system was approved as the Japanese DTTB system in May, 1999. NHK Labs has also been working on setting international standards in ITU-R. Since 1992, we have contributed documents for DTTB to ITU-R. ISDB-T was approved as an ITU-R recommended system for DTTB in 2000. The Digital Broadcasting Experts Group (DiBEG) was established in 1997 as an organization for international promotion of ISDB-T.

  • ISDB-T Standards
    Memorandum Circular No. 02-03-2016 Subject: Sale and Labeling of ISDB'T Receivers Annex A ISDB-T Standards Receiver While most of all the technical parameters related to receivers shall be in accordance with ABNT NBR15604, there are some modifications required. The main points to be modified are shown here-below. See Annex 6 for the details. - In order to adopt the BML for data broadcasting, some items that are based on Ginga such as the remote control key and the demodulator for data broadcasting shall be modified. - As the analog video format of the Philippines is of NTSC-M, those items of PAL-M format shall be replaced to NTSC-M. - As for the RF INPUT-TERMINAL of the receivers for the Philippines, it is enough that the interface with the Ftype terminal (lEC 61169-24) can be finally established. So, bundled adaptor for "F" type terminal is also acceptable. - The priority parameters of the receiver unit of Annex A are described as the operational guidelines, thus it should be subject to ISDB-T Harmonization Document PART 1: Hardware. - Since there is no detailed specification of "Accessibility resources (Audio locution)" in ABNT, it is preferable to remove it. - Since "Accessibility resources (LIBRAS window)" is a specification unique only to Brazil, it is desirable to remove it. - Annex B is the information related to GINGA; and it is not necessary to keep it. - Silicon-Tuner is mostly adopted in the recentTV-Front-End products, making outputs of Low-lF below 10MHz. Thus Low-lF below 1OMHz shall also be acceptable.
