Already underways, the pilot commenced in October in the Pittsburgh, PA, area, and aims to prove and test the feasibility of DVB-H technology and related service systems in the United States.
DVB-H is a standard specified by the DVB Organization specifically for the transmission of TV-like content and data to handheld devices, such as mobile phones, which have unique requirements in terms of power consumption, screen-size and mobility.
