PROCEDURE FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF SUITABLE DIGITAL TERRESTRIAL TELEVISION RECEIVERS IN REPUBLIC OF SLOVENIA

Uspešen prehod iz analogne na digitalno radiodifuzijo je v veliki meri odvisen od razpoložljivosti DVB-T sprejemnih naprav skladnih s posameznimi nacionalnimi zahtevami. Za sprejem signala DVB-T je potrebno uporabiti ustrezen TV sprejemnik ali posebno zunanjo enoto, ki bo omogočala sprejem digitalnega signala. Sprejemnik mora biti sposoben dekodirati signal kodiran po postopku, ki ga je izbrala in predpisala posamezna država. V primeru Republike Slovenije mora sprejemnik dekodirati signal za televizijo standardne razločljivosti kodiran v MPEG-4, kar postavlja za sprejemnike nekoliko drugačne zahteve od sosednjih držav. Za zagotavljanje delovanja sprejemnikov skladno z nacionalnimi zahtevami in omogočanje lažjega prehoda na digitalno radiodifuzijo je koristno pripraviti nacionalne zahteve za sprejemnike signala DVB-T. Na podlagi nastalih zahtev za sprejemnike in postopkov za testiranje je možno izvesti tudi testiranje skladnosti sprejemnikov z zahtevami.Successful transition from analog to digital terrestrial TV broadcasting is crucially dependent from availability of appropriate DVB-T receivers according to the national requirements. In order to receive DVB-T signal appropriate TV sets or external receivers are required. The receiver has to be capable of decoding signal coded in the standard, specified by the country. In case of Republic of Slovenia the receiver has to be capable of decoding signal for standard definition television coded in MPEG-4, which is representing different requirement as chosen by most neibhouring countries. In order to ensure operation of receivers compliant to national requirements and to allow faster transition to digital broadcasting it is useful to prepare national requirements for DVB-T receivers. Based on requirements for receivers and testing procedures it is possible to perform testing of receivers according to requirements
