ETSI approves Digital Multimedia Broadcasting standards
Jul 25, 2005 9:51 AM, ENG Update e-newsletter
The European Telecommunications Standard Institute (ETSI) has approved
the
Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) standards for the delivery of
multimedia
content and services on the move.
DMB has its roots in DAB, the technology that is taking radio digital
around the
world. DMB was specifically developed for mobile reception. It is
designed to
broadcast television and video to mobile handsets, in parallel with
existing
DAB services, both audio and data, and can be integrated where DAB
infrastructure already exists. A DAB network is already available to
80 percent
of Europe and there are more than 800 DAB services reaching 475
million people
in 40 countries around the world.
The DMB standard is one of the applications made possible by using DAB
as a
transport medium for audio, video and multimedia streaming. WorldDAB
is also
working towards developing further standards based on this DAB
capability via
IP-based solutions.
DAB has evolved from being a digital replacement of analog radio to a
full-fledged multi-service, multimedia broadcast system incorporating
recent
audio and video coding technologies. DAB networks will be able to
serve any
kind of receiver in any reception environment with any type of
distributive
content and service.
