Abstract :
Digital television allows the transmission of data in addition to the television program. DTV indoor field test results can be used to predict the problems which can be experienced by multimedia reception. 8-VSB and various modes of DVB-T are used. The paper looks at two ways to improve ease of reception: trading the bit rate for signal robustness and using an on-channel repeater.
