4 New possibilities to the viewers: Why digital? for Regulators : Efficient use of Spectrum Additional number of programs Additional reception modes Improved quality of image and sound Additional type of services: interactivity, Electronic Program Guides, etc. Fair competition: To develop a terrestrial platform competitive with the other platforms Efficiency of spectrum (1 frequency for multiple programs) Possibility to free a part of the Band for other usage TV operators/content providers: Good for the environment Significant decrease in transmission costs comparing to analogue: Power costs: DTT requires less energy to ensure the same coverage as for the analogue, Investment and transmission cost: One transmitter to broadcast multiple channels/programs. Development of new services without spectrum constraints. Offering of new innovative services (mobile TV, data, games, interactivity, VoD,...).

6 ITU recommendations Recommendation ITU-R BS : System for digital sound broadcasting in the broadcasting bands below 30 MHz. Recommendation ITU-R BS : Systems for terrestrial digital sound broadcasting to vehicular, portable and fixed receivers in the frequency range MHz. Recommendation ITU-R BS.774-3: Service requirements for digital sound broadcasting to vehicular, portable and fixed receivers using terrestrial transmitters in the VHF/UHF bands. 6

7 Digital Sound standards See ITU-R Recommendation BS DRM Digital Radio Mondiale ISDB-TSB Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting- Terrestrial Sound Broadcasting T-DAB/T-DMB Terrestrial Digital Audio Broadcasting/ Multimedia Broadcasting HD Radio proprietary standard from ibiquity IBOC In-band onchannel DRM30: Designed to operate on 150kHz to30 MHz DRM+: in VHF Bands I, II, and III Allows to broadcast up to 4 different services in an ITU channel (9 or 10 khz). consists of one or three OFDMsegments; The bandwidth of the system is approximately 500 khz or 1.5 MHz DAB/DAB+: operates at any frequency up to MHz DMB: Suitable for mobile radio and TV as it supports MPEG 4 AVC. (designed to be carried on a DAB subchannel. The only standard approved by the FCC for AM/FM in the US. 200 khz-wide channels. uses a codec based upon the MPEG-4 HE-AAC standard. < 3MHz Described in Annex 4; 7

Mode B will generally be the first choice for sky-wave services. Where propagation conditions are more severe, such as for long paths with multiple hops, or near vertical incidence, where several very strong reflections may occur, Mode C or Mode D may need to be employed. Finally, Mode E is used for the VHF frequency bands from 30 MHz up to Band III (DRM+). Source: 8

10 Introduction and implementation of terrestrial DSB in planned Bands Introduction of digital sound broadcasting in various relevant Regional Agreements: RJ81, GE-75; ST-61; GE-84; GE-89; GE-06 Introduction of digital sound broadcasting in nonplanned bands but regulated by a specific article of the RR (HFBC) 10

11 Introduction of digital sound- RJ81 Region 2 Frequency bands: khz The RJ81 Agreement do not provide for the possibility of introducing digital modulation in the bands concerned. Question ITU-R 120/6 (2006) Digital sound broadcasting in Region 2 has been adopted by Study Group 6E.

13 Introduction of Digital transmission ST61 Regions 1 & 3 Digital modulation systems can be used under RoP Part A2/ST61 paragraph 5 same coordination distances as analogue systems No submissions or notifications to date 13

14 Introduction of Digital transmission GE84 Regions 1 & MHz FM sound broadcasting band 100 khz channeling arrangement Digital modulation possible under: 3.1 of Chapter 3 of Annex 2 to GE84 Use of systems with different characteristics (e.g. digital modulation) Does not cause greater interference Nor require higher protection than reference system in the Plan Problematic to introduce new digital assignments in congested bands

15 Digital under GE89 Digital modulation systems can be used under provision 2.3 See Rule of Procedure Part A6/GE89 for a modification under Article 4 of the agreement 15
