Digital Video Broadcasting
DVB




Initiated in 1991 for digital TV
More than 260 broadcasters, manufacturers, network operators in over
35 countries
Currently more than 150 million DVB receivers are in use
Traditional broadcasting (TV Channels) over different media types
• DVB-C (able)
• DVB-S (atellite)
• DVB-T (errestrial)

DVB-H is based on DVB-T standard but designed for small,
portable devices like Mobile Phones.
• Optimized reception in mobile environments through new
modulation and error correction mechanisms (better signal quality)
• By the use of time-slices is perfect suited for small, batterypowered devices

DVB-H

Mobile TV with DVB-H has been tested in more
than 40 countries
• 7 countries launched commercial services
• Finland, Italy, India, Albania, Philippines, Vietnam, Nigeria
• Other countries are planning initial services for 2008
(Germany, Russia, Spain, USA, UK…)

Example United Kingdom (Arqiva - Oxford) :
• 85% satisfied customers, 72% willing to pay for the service within 12
months
• 37% of usage while commuting to and from work
• An average of 24 minutes of view per session / 4 hours per week
• Traditional TV programs more attractive than made-for-mobile content
• Customized and interactive services are demanded such as video

IP Datacast

DVB was initially designed for Digital TV reception
• One-to-many unidirectional connections
 No Interactivity, passive TV watchers
• MPEG2 streams
 No IP, no other service

IP Datacast
• Developed by the DVB CBMS (Convergence of Broadcast and Mobile
Services ) Working Group
• Enables traditional IP based services over DVB
• Defines service enabler for broadcast services
 Purchase, Service Description, schedule and acquisition…
• Supports the integration of cellular networks as service enablers
 Return Channel

The missing part

In the following years we will dominantly witness services
using hybrid networks
•
•
•
Devices capable of UMTS, DVB-H, WLAN… are already there
For a common user interface an interactive mobile TV standard
with a media independent Java API (JSR 272) is also there
Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) Mobile Broadcast Services Enabler
Suite (BCAST)
•

Supports DVB-H, 3GPP MBMS, 3GPP2 and mobile unicast streaming systems at the
application layer
Interaction with other technologies at the network and data
link layer is missing
•
IEEE 802.21 is currently the best candidate to fill in this gap!
Different than other networks: Hybrid Networks fundamentally need
cooperation among existing technologies hence need IEEE 802.21
more than others

DVB and Handover

Intra-technology handover for DVB is already defined

Inter-technology handover reasons given in the current
draft are also true for DVB deployments
•
QoS concerns, service availability, mobility, price, power
management, network selection…
 Some handover scenarios:
• Especially in suburban and intra-urban areas handover between
DVB and UMTS/WIMAX is needed
•
•
•
Automobiles equipped with DVB - UMTS- WIMAX already being tested by
some manufacturers
Price issues might foster use of WLAN when available
In case of service unavailability on a specific DVB network
choose UMTS or Wimax

How to Integrate

IEEE 802.21 assumes bidirectional connection
• Information can be exchanged between peer MIHF entities

This is not directly possible for DVB
• Needs an uplink channel for bidirectional connection
• Communication with own MIHF is possible in all cases
• Integrate unidirectional DVB

MIH Reference Model for DVB-H

Has two parts:
• MIH related information from DVB transmitter
• MIH related information from DVB interface

Integration approach
 A study
group should work on
• definitions of MIIS information elements for DVB
• MIES and MICS parameter mapping/definitions for DVB
• definition of MICS, MIES, MIIS interfaces between
drivers of DVB and IEEE 802.21
• recommendations for DVB driver implementations

Next Steps

Further discussions within IEEE and DVB

Formation of a study group (feasibility analysis)
• Analysis and evaluation of compatibility
 Unidirectional Connections
• Definition of parameters
• Definition of interfaces to MIES, MICS and MIIS
• Preparation of implementation recommendations
• Consider integrating bidirectional DVB-H




Definition of requirements
Definition of bidirectionality related parameters
Definition of new primitives and protocols if needed

Conclusion

Hybrid Broadcast/Mobile Networks composed of 3GPP and IEEE
technologies have significant financial advantages for all mobile
network operators
• Initial mobile TV services using hybrid networks in different
countries have shown that customer acceptance is very high
• We will witness more and more hybrid networks in the following
years

Hybrid Networks need more cooperation among different
technologies than vertical handovers do

IEEE 802.21 is the best candidate to provide with the required
cooperation

An amendment of IEEE 802.21 supporting vertical handovers with
DVB will have high impact on offered services, hence on the market
value of hybrid networks!

Advantages of Hybrid Networks

DVB-H network operators profit from:
•
•
•
Virtual bidirectional channel
AAA support
Enabling more services as a result of interactivity
•

Customized advertisements, Mobile TV, live polls, purchase banners,
interactive games, chat services, webcasting, file transfers…
3GPP/3GPP2, IEEE network operators profit from:
•
Market penetration with little investment
•
•
•
•
•
DVB-H supported by the EU commission as the mobile TV standard
20 billion € expected revenue in 2011 (2 million subscribers in 2006, 6 million
in 2007)
Use of existing broadcasting brands
New services as with DVB-H
Multicasting with much better quality, to a larger set of customers
with one transmitter

Step 2: DVB with virtual bidirectional link
No changes needed in the standard as long as L3 is used for
interaction with peer MIHF entities
 Handover with DVB in virtual bidirectional case includes

•
•

handover of the downlink channel
handover of the uplink channel (other technologies)
Task group should define required interfaces in order to:
•
•
•
•
•
determine the need for virtual bidirectional channel
manage the choice of the uplink channel for DVB
build virtual bidirectional channel for interactive services
manage handovers of the uplink channel (stable virtual bidirectional
link)
manage changes from virtual bidirectional to bidirectional or vice
versa
