DVB-H
DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting-Handheld) : The latest development within the set of DVB transmission standards, which can be used by mobile operators to multicast digital television signals to mobile handsets. DVB-H technology adapts the DVB system for transmission of digital television to handheld, battery-powered receivers. Commercial launches of DVB-H services are expected in 2006 in Italy, and the Crown Castle International’s Modeo is building a U.S. overlay network based on DVB-H that it hopes to sell to mobile operators. Nokia, Intel and Motorola have formed an alliance to promote the standard.
