TDtv

TDtv is another mobile TV solution that IPWireless developed and unveiled recently. TDtv operates in universal unpaired 3G spectrum bands that are available throughout Europe and Asia: 2010 MHz and 1900 MHz. The technology allows UMTS operators to use their existing spectrum and infrastructure to offer mobile TV services. Most of the other options do not rely fully on the carriers’ networks themselves to deliver mobile TV services and since many carriers’ intended to build out 3G services to enable a data-rich experience for the end user, TDtv has quickly gotten a lot of headlines. IPWireless claims operators can offer up to 50 channels for standard mobile phone screens or 15 QVGA quality channels. TDtv also leverages MBMS to allow greater scalability.
