Siemens commits further to the DVB-H market


On August 23rd Siemens announced that it would provide a live DVB-H service at IFA2005 in Berlin.
To demonstrate “Mobile TV”, Siemens will for the first time use its new DVB-H test system comprising server platform for mobile television and a handset prototype capable of receiving DVB-H services. The equipment enables mobile operators to conduct DVB-H trials with relatively little effort, for example to test the level of acceptance for Mobile TV among consumers a spokesman said.
