What is ATSC 3.0?

With ATSC 3.0’s increasing adoption, this new standard is the future
of over-the-air TV, using existing antenna technologies and adding
IP delivery to end devices. Broadcasters can provide IP video to their
users without building new infrastructure and deliver high-density
content using minimal bandwidth.

Broadcasters can take advantage of this new format to:

  • Launch newer video technologies such as HEVC
  • Support new devices like phones, tablets, and vehicle devices
  • Deliver 4K/UHD content and new Dolby AC-4 Atmos audio

VMA-AT3 Receiver Module
 

WISI has launched a new Inca IP Video Platform module to receive ATSC 3.0 broadcast signals.

As the broadcast industry embraces ATSC 3.0, Pay-TV operators need to ensure that they can receive these signals. While ATSC 3.0 is not yet a mandatory format for video operators in the United States, the new standard is the future of over-the-air TV and lays the foundation for a more engaging, immersive television experience. As broadcasters migrate from ATSC 1.0 to ATSC 3.0, operators will need the ability to receive ATSC 3.0 or risk being left behind.
