Digital multimedia broadcasting is available in more and more countries with various forms. One of the most successful forms is Digital Video Broadcasting for Terrestrial (DVB-T), which has been deployed in most countries of the world for years. In order to bring the digital multimedia broadcasting services to battery-powered handheld receivers in a mobile environment, Digital Video Broadcasting for Handheld (DVB-H) has been formally adopted by ETSI. More advanced and complex digital multimedia broadcasting systems are under development, for example, the next generation of DVB-T, a.k.a. DVB-T2. Current commercial DVB-T/H receivers are usually built upon dedicated application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs). However, ASICs are not flexible for incoming evolved standards and less overall-area efficient since they cannot be efficiently reused and shared among different radio standards, when we integrate a DVB-T/H receiver into a mobile phone. This paper presents an example implementation of a DVB-T/H receiver on the prototype of Infineon Technologies' Software-Defined Radio (SDR) platform called MuSIC (Multiple SIMD Cores), which is a DSP-centered and accelerator-assisted architecture and aims at battery-powered mass-market handheld terminals.

Background: In the new era of wireless communications new challenges emerge including the provision of various services over the digital television network. In particular, such services become more important when referring to the tele-medical applications through terrestrial Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB). Objective: One of the most significant aspects of video broadcasting is the quality and information content of data. Towards that end several algorithms have been proposed for image processing in order to achieve the most convenient data compression. Methods: Given that medical video and data are highly demanding in terms of resources it is imperative to find methods and algorithms that will facilitate medical data transmission with ordinary infrastructure such as DVB. Results: In the present work we have utilized a quantization algorithm for data compression and we have attempted to transform video signal in such a way that would transmit information and data with a minimum loss in quality and succeed a near maximum End-user approval. Conclusions: Such approaches are proven to be of great significance in emergency handling situations, which also include health care and emergency care applications.
