  • Activity of Disseminating Japanese EWBS Technology - $15

    Date: April 26, 2020
    Topics: ,

    The Japanese digital terrestrial broadcasting system (ISDB-T) is adopted by 14 countries in Latin America. Japan provides technical cooperation to help the implementation of ISDB-T in those countries. EWBS (Emergency Warning Broadcasting System) is one of the particular features of ISDB-T and expected to be introduced as a national communication system in case of emergency. The ?EWBS Superimpose dissemination system? which is improved from the Japanese original by adapting to local requirements in Latin America has successfully developed in Japan. Taking advantage of the robustness of the ISDB-T ?One-seg? technology, making maximum use of the existing broadcasting network, this system realizes simple utilization and wide coverage with outstanding reliability. This system is already introduced to some Latin American countries and highly evaluated. Japan continues the technical cooperation so that EWBS can be contributed to disaster prevention and mitigation around the world.

  • Addressable TV Over ATSC 3.0: A Dream Come True! - $15

    Date: April 26, 2020
    Topics: ,

    While broadcasters are facing an increase in digital advertising, whose investments have surpassed those of TV advertising since 2017, TV remains the most powerful medium for brands. It is the only media able to reach millions of people simultaneously. Whether in short or long term, it generates the most profit at the greatest cost-efficiency with the lowest risk. All major advertising effectiveness studies, including those commissioned by competing media, agrees that TV outperforms all others. Before ATSC 3.0, Addressable TV was only possible on cable; now with Next Gen TV technology, it?s possible on Free-To-Air (FTA) TV.

    This paper will introduce fundamentals about ATSC 3.0 and highlight how broadcasters can enable targeted advertising and seamlessly address their linear FTA TV Video with their favorite Digital Ad Server, like in the digital world. With broadband connection, the broadcasters will be able to personalize advertisements and monitor audience and visibility in real time. Finally, we will show the new business opportunities for broadcasters thanks to Next Gen TV technology: A dream come true!

    This session will be rebroadcast on the?BEIT Express?channel?on May 13, 2020?at 10:45?p.m.?and May 14, 2020 at 6:45?a.m.?EDT (UTC -4).

  • Advanced FM HD Radio™ Service Modes WTLP Field Test Results - $15

    Date: April 14, 2023
    Topics: ,

    Xperi has developed a new set of Advanced FM service modes in response to emerging market demands and opportunities.  These new service modes offer broadcasters the ability to significantly enhance their digital capacity using both hybrid and all-digital waveforms.  Some of these advanced service modes are backward compatible with existing service modes, and some are not.  This presentation will review the results of recent field trials using Hubbard station WTLP in Braddock Heights, MD.  Specifically, it will compare performance of the new signals with their legacy counterparts, highlighting the critical tradeoff of robustness for capacity.  These test results demonstrate the ability of HD Radio broadcast technology to reliably deliver higher-throughput digital information over much of the existing coverage area.
