Book Synopsis Preparations for digital switchover by : Great Britain: National Audit Office
Download or read book Preparations for digital switchover written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2008-02-27 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In September 2005 the Government, after consultation with the broadcasting industry and Ofcom, announced a programme to replace analogue television broadcasts with digital television, region by region, between 2008 and 2012 (digital switchover). This report considers how this objective is being pursued by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport and the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (the Departments), who have joint responsibility for delivering the policy objective. Switchover involves the conversion of more than a thousand television transmitter sites in order to ensure public service broadcasting is available to some 25 million households in digital instead of analogue form. Unless households have at least one television set capable of receiving digital television signals they will lose access to broadcast television after switchover. The Departments estimate it will cost the UK economy £4.6 billion, mostly borne by consumers through the cost of acquiring and installing digital receiving equipment. The Departments estimate the cost will be outweighed by benefits to consumers and business totalling £6.3 billion. The programme is progressing well, with main set conversion at 85 per cent and a successful switchover in the flagship area of Copeland. The complexity of the non-contractual delivery and governance arrangements poses inherent risks to the objectives. Public awareness of the switchover is high, though not in some sections of the population. The programme's communications and help scheme activities are funded through ring-fenced amounts within the licence fee spent by the BBC, and the BBC has started to set performance measures for the £800 million ring-fenced for switchover activities. Evidence from Copeland suggests that take-up of the help scheme might be significantly lower than that anticipated by the Departments in their cost model.

Book Synopsis Digital switchover of television and radio in the United Kingdom by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: Select Committee on Communications
Download or read book Digital switchover of television and radio in the United Kingdom written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Lords: Select Committee on Communications and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2010-03-29 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee warns of a major public reaction against radio digital switchover, scheduled for 2015, unless the Government make the case for switchover and keep the public informed about its impact. There is 'public confusion and industry uncertainty' over radio switchover and concern that due to the lack of public information people are still buying analogue radios which will be out of date in a few years time. Retailers gave evidence stating that they are not getting adequate information on switchover plans so are unable to offer consumers accurate guidance when making purchases. The report also points out that car manufacturers are still fitting analogue radios in new cars and digital radios will not be fitted as standard in all cars until 2013.The radio switchover is contrasted with the television switchover programme, finding that the benefits of TV switchover were well understood, in contrast surveys show that the public are generally happy with the present FM radio system and with the range of programmes that are provided.The Committee recommends urgent steps on a range of actions including: providing a detailed plan for universal digital radio coverage including how it is to be funded; developing a policy for the long term use of FM; devising a help scheme for radio switchover financed by general taxation rather than the BBC licence fee; ensuring new digital car radios are fitted with a multi-standard chip to enable their use overseas; encouraging radio manufacturers and retailers to devise a sensible scrappage scheme for redundant analogue radios. It is also noted that the BBC and Government disagree over whether the cost of universal digital coverage of their national stations can be met under the current licence fee. The report says that it is essential that a 'firm and unambiguous' plan for funding the completion of build-out of the digital radio service is put in place as soon as possible. The report concludes reversing current policy would be unproductive given the amount of investment in digital radio already and while the switchover in 2015 is ambitious a change of target date is not favoured at this stage.

Book Synopsis Preparations for Digital Switchover by : Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Committee of Public Accounts
Download or read book Preparations for Digital Switchover written by Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Committee of Public Accounts and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2008 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department for Culture, Media & Sport and the Department for Business, Enterprise & Regulatory Reform are jointly responsible for digital switchover, the programme to convert over 1,100 tv transmitters to ditigal and switch off analogue signals by 2012. The Departments have passed to the BBC responsibility for funding the public information campaign and delivering the help scheme, and set aside £803 million of licence fee money to pay for these activities. The BBC is accountable to the BBC Trust for the value for money with which it uses the licence fee, not the Departments. Therefore the Departments have no means of holding the BBC to account for this use of licence fee money. To data, take-up of the help scheme has been significantly lower than the Departments expected. If help scheme take-up rates experienced in Copeland, the first area to switch, were replicated across the country, there would be a £250 million surplus in the licence fee settlement. The Departments have not decided how any surplus would be handled and it is felt generally that the Departments have not taken effective action to protection consumer interests.

This book was released on 2009-06-16 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this document the Government sets out a programme of action designed to position the UK as a long-term leader in communications, creating an industrial framework that will fully harness digital technology. The UK's digital dividend will transform the way business operates, enhance the delivery of public services, stimulate communications infrastructure ready for next-generation distribution and preserve Britain's status as a global hub for media and entertainment. This approach seeks to maximise the digital opportunities for all citizens. The report contains: (1) an analysis of the levels of digital participation, skills and access needed for the digital future, with a plan for increasing participation, and more coherent public structures to deal with it; (2) an analysis of communications infrastructure capabilities; (3) plans for the future growth of creative industries, proposals for a legal and regulatory framework for intellectual property and proposals on skills and investment support and innovation; (4) a restatement of the need for specific market intervention in the UK content market, with implications and challenges for the BBC and C4 Corporation and other forms of independent and suitably funded news; (5) an analysis of the skills, research and training markets, and what supply side issues need addressing for a fully functioning digital economy; (6) a framework for digital security and digital safety at international and national levels and recognition that a world of high speed connectivity needs a digital framework not an analogue one; (7) a review of what all of this means for the Government and how digital governance in the information age demands new structures, new safeguards, and new data management, access and transparency rules.

Book Synopsis Switching to Digital Television by : Michael Starks
Download or read book Switching to Digital Television written by Michael Starks and published by Intellect Books. This book was released on 2007 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometime in the next four years, in a move that is bound to anger consumers and endanger the careers of politicians, the United Kingdom plans to turn off its analog, terrestrial television and switch fully to digital TV. Switching to Digital Television argues that, in order for the initiative to succeed, public policymakers need to carefully consider competitive market forces and collaborate with the broadcasting industry. This authoritative study of the government policy behind the switchover also draws on the United Kingdom's experience as a basis for comparative analysis of the United States, Japan, and western European nations, all of which will face similar questions in coming years. "The book provides an interesting and 'different' history of Digital Television, and if you want to know why and how the decisions were made, it deserves a place on your bookshelf."- Jim Slater, Image Technology Magazine "Michael Starks brilliantly describes the complex mix of Government and industry responses to technological change which have led to the digital switchover process in the UK."--Barry Cox, Chairman of Digital UK

Book Synopsis Algebraic Coding Theory (Revised Edition) by : Elwyn R Berlekamp
Download or read book Algebraic Coding Theory (Revised Edition) written by Elwyn R Berlekamp and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2015-03-26 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the revised edition of Berlekamp's famous book, 'Algebraic Coding Theory', originally published in 1968, wherein he introduced several algorithms which have subsequently dominated engineering practice in this field. One of these is an algorithm for decoding Reed-Solomon and Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem codes that subsequently became known as the Berlekamp-Massey Algorithm. Another is the Berlekamp algorithm for factoring polynomials over finite fields, whose later extensions and embellishments became widely used in symbolic manipulation systems. Other novel algorithms improved the basic methods for doing various arithmetic operations in finite fields of characteristic two. Other major research contributions in this book included a new class of Lee metric codes, and precise asymptotic results on the number of information symbols in long binary BCH codes.Selected chapters of the book became a standard graduate textbook.Both practicing engineers and scholars will find this book to be of great value.

Book Synopsis The Routledge Companion to Alternative and Community Media by : Chris Atton
Download or read book The Routledge Companion to Alternative and Community Media written by Chris Atton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-15 with total page 706 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Companion to Alternative and Community Media provides an authoritative and comprehensive examination of the diverse forms, practices and philosophies of alternative and community media across the world. The volume offers a multiplicity of perspectives to examine the reasons why alternative and community media arise, how they develop in particular ways and in particular places, and how they can enrich our understanding of the broader media landscape and its place in society. The 50 chapters present a range of theoretical and methodological positions, and arguments to demonstrate the dynamic, challenging and innovative thinking around the subject; locating media theory and practice within the broader concerns of democracy, citizenship, social exclusion, race, class and gender. In addition to research from the UK, the US, Canada, Europe and Australia, the Companion also includes studies from Colombia, Haiti, India, South Korea and Zimbabwe, enabling international comparisons to be made and also allowing for the problematisation of traditional - often Western - approaches to media studies. By considering media practices across a range of cultures and communities, this collection is an ideal companion to the key issues and debates within alternative and community media.
