Glossary

DVB-H :
DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting - Handheld) is a technical specification for bringing broadcast services to handheld receivers. This technology adapts the successful DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting - Terrestrial) system for digital terrestrial television to the specific requirements of handheld, battery-powered receivers

HSDPA :
High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) is an evolutionary improvement for the UMTS standard. HSDPA achieves the increase in the data transfer speeds up to 10 times higher than 3G (UMTS) technology.

UMTS :
Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) is one of the 3rd generation mobile technologies. It supports up to 1,920 Mbit/s data transfer rates in theory although at the moment users in deployed networks can expect a performance up to 384 kbit/s. Nonetheless UMTS enables downloading of music and video content, as well as live TV or Video telephony.

The potential offered by new mobile technologies (UMTS, HSDPA, DVB-H, etc.) allows the launching of mobile TV offerings. We thus work on project definitions and the implementation of mobile TV offerings on behalf of channel owners wishing to invest in new image and growth relays.

These projects require a precise understanding of the technological constraints and associated costs, the behaviour and expectations of customers, the means of negotiating high added-value content, and the constraints and specific opportunities connected with mobile terminals.
