Mobile broadcasting
• Today mobile streaming is a unicasting service -> not suitable for heavy mass communications (broadcasting)
• Two promising technologies exist:• DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting, Handheld)
– Specified by ETSI as an extension to DVB-T– DVB-T based single-frequence network, 5-12 mbps– Needs back-channel, e.g. GPRS for interaction– First terminal introduced: Nokia 7700
• MBMS (Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service)– to be specified in 3GPP Rel6 (Jan 2005)– Uses existing EDGE/UMTS infrastructure, 64-384 kbps

Summary
• For GPRS video, use the technology that suits best: streaming, downloading or scheduled downloading
• Video over GPRS is not a business but rather a piloting environment and market maker for 3G services
• W-CDMA enables high-quality streamed audio and music services
• DVB-H and MBMS are promising technologies for mobile broadcasting for 2006-2008
• For video services to succeed good terminals are not enough, we need also networks, applications and content
• TeliaSonera has launched many mobile video services
• Operators offering flexible content enabling services (streaming, DRM, billing, reporting, etc.) to content, application and service providers can accelerate the market
• Video services need enablers like DRM and content based billing
