| Harris
broadcast communications president Tim Thorsteinson
says, "Harris is pleased to support Chinas
DMB-T standard for digital terrestrial television.
Harris has a long history of leadership in
transmission, and continues to design new
platforms and modify existing technology to
support digital TV standards internationally.
We look forward to supporting this unique
standard as China moves forward with its DTV
initiatives for both terrestrial and mobile
TV broadcasting."
The
DMB-T standard has been designed to provide
the best possible reception quality, even
in large metropolitan areas with difficult
reception conditions. The standard has been
engineered to provide a very high level
of spectral efficiency. This provides the
capability to transmit multiple programs
of video, audio and data within the same
channel that was previously occupied by
a single analog signal. The standard is
also designed to allow both terrestrial
TV sets and mobile handheld devices to use
the same spectrum.
The
medium-to-high power liquid-cooled design
of Harris DMB-T transmitters is specifically
for broadcasters seeking an efficient, high-power
density transmitter, resulting in greatly
reduced room air-conditioning requirements
and overall electricity costs.
The
new Harris DMB-T transmitter series also
shares the compact footprint of the Atlas
transmitter design for broadcasters with
limited space in the transmission facility.
