This part of IEC 62216 specifies the baseline receiver for the DVB-T system.
It concerns:
? broadcasters, and
? receiver manufacturers.
The objective is to define:
? how to provide broadcasts that are understood by all receivers and enable receivers to
provide good facilities to their users;
? the behaviour required from receivers to work well with these broadcasts and to be
attractive to consumers.
To avoid doubt, the words “shall”, “should” etc. are used in the traditional way to distinguish
issues that are important versus those that are optional. The term “shall” is also used to
identify mandatory requirements that are inherited from other specifications that have greater
force.
This specification does not consider interactive applications and the data broadcasting that
would support them. Subtitling and teletext are considered to be components of TV services.
Standalone teletext services are not part of this standard.
This specification primarily addresses terrestrial delivery of digital transmissions.
This specification primarily addresses deployment in countries that use European Latin script
based languages.
