Rohde & Schwarz in association with StreamSpark provides integrated DVB-T2 receiver compliance solution for NBTC. The combination of R&S BTC RF test automation system with StreamSpark PSI/SI test suite empowers NBTC to roll out DVB-T2 ahead of its counterparts in ASEAN region and enables smooth transmission of HD content over T2 networks.
“As the leading test and measurement solution provider, Rohde & Schwarz cooperates closely with broadcast authorities and the TV industry to design the most efficient compliance test system,” said Eric Li, Regional Manager for Rohde & Schwarz Broadcasting Solution. “The newly installed R&S BTC RF automation test system will save up to 70% of testing time compared to manual testing prior to deployment, thus enabling the authorities to meet the increasing demand for compliance test.”
According to NBTC, receiver testing is paramount to a successful digital TV switchover. As such, the Thai government provides coupon of THB690 (or 18 EUR) for receivers with NBTC logo and NBTC shall guarantee the quality and performance of each receiver model, ensuring smooth DVB-T2 roll out at consumers’ end. Upon implementation, all receiver products such as STB, iDTV, USB dongle, tablet and mobile phone with built-in T2 demodulator shall be tested against NBTC standard and granted with NBTC logo before sale. In addition, all Digital TV receiver imported to Thailand shall be certified by NBTC and entitled with NBTC receiver logo.
