In the ever-evolving landscape of broadcast technology, adaptation is key. As content consumption patterns shift and the demand for premium, high-definition content grows, broadcasters are faced with the challenge of modernising their systems whilst preserving the integrity of free-to-air (FTA) offerings. Two emerging standards, ATSC-3 and DVB-NIP, are at the forefront of this transformation.
ATSC-3 Leading the Charge Towards Next-Generation Broadcasting
ATSC-3 is the new North American standard poised to replace its predecessor ATSC-1, has already made significant strides, with deployments in South Korea and various states across North America. Its adoption as a broadcast solution in Brazil further solidifies its position as a leading contender in the realm of broadcast technology.
DVB-NIP The Rising Star in Broadcast Technology
DVB-NIP is based on a recently released software standard from the DVB group and represents a parallel evolution. While still in its early development stage and less mature compared to ATSC-3, DVB-NIP is steadily gaining interest worldwide, signalling its potential to become a significant player in the broadcasting space.
