_DVB-H Trials Planned for Australia

26/08/2004

At an ABE/Free TV Engineering Conference this month in Sydney, plans
were announced for trials of the DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting -
Handheld) transmission standard. Subject to Australian Broadcasting
Authority approval, the trials will commence in December. They will be
conducted by Broadcast Australia subsidiary The Bridge Networks and
partners under a scientific transmission licence. Trial transmissions
will be broadcast on UHF Channel 29 from Sydney's Gore Hill to handsets
employing the Symbian Operating System. Transmission testing will be
carried out with equipment from German manufacturer AdCoCom.
