  • Abstract
    In this paper, we describe how the transmission technologies developed for over-the-air digital television broadcasting could be used to offer interactive television and Internet multimedia service. We propose to use the ATSC-DTV system for the downlink and DVB-RCT standard to implement a wireless return channel. This paper will also present some technical aspects of the system implementation.
