DVB-H architecture for mobile communications systems

The availability of new low-power, small form-factor digital video broadcast hand-held (DVB-H) demodulator and silicon tuner solutions now enable the reception of digital TV signals on hand-held devices where small displays and limited battery power are a fact of life. The requirement for improved video display functionality and support for multimedia applications makes DVB-H[1] an attractive complementary technology to existing 3G in-band solutions.
