Abstract

This paper analyses the possibility of receiving high data rate multimedia services in the non-stationary urban mobile scenario using the digital video broadcast standard DVB-T2. The work focuses on the complex urban mobile environment and presents a comparison between the different configuration parameters and the data rates associated to different video services. The study is based on the experience operating an experimental DVB-T2 network in urban environments, where portable and vehicular reception scenarios have been tested. The results show the system performance and the feasible video quality. The paper explores the coverage for various video services, including HDTV and 3DTV options, and proposes some scenarios for the deployment of broadcasting networks transmitting multimedia services to mobile receivers.

► The capability of DVB-T2 to delivery video to mobile receivers is analyzed. ► An experimental network is used to perform field measurements. ► The results are analyzed for two reception scenarios: Pedestrian and Mobile. ► The capacity requirements for different services (3D, HD, SD, etc.) are calculated.
