DVB-H

Acronym for Digital Video Broadcasting – Handheld, which is a terrestrial digital TV standard for bringing broadcast services to handheld receivers, such as mobile phones, PDAs, etc. It adapts DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting – Terrestrial) system for digital terrestrial television to the specific requirements of handheld, battery-powered receivers. DVB-H allows the receiving device to move freely even at high speed, while receiving the transmission. To reduce the power consumption, it employs time slicing technology, which allows the handheld device to be switched on only at particular intervals.
