What is mobile TV?
| It describes a service to subscribers via mobile telecommunications networks, most probably the cellular phone carriers. There are several competing implementations vying to become standards: digital video broadcast-handheld (DVB-H), digital multimedia broadcasting (DMB), TDtv (based on TD-CDMA technology from [IPWireless]), 1seg (based on Japan's ISDB-T) and MediaFLO. All have drawbacks of one kind or another: spectral frequencies used or needed, signal strength required, new antennas and towers, network capacity required, or business model. |
