Spectrum efficiency achieved by the implementation of DVB-T2 with H.264/AVC and H.265/HEVC

Abstract

This paper describes new requirements for the UHF spectrum set by wireless broadband services and their influence on broadcasting services. The new technological advances such as DVB-T2 standard, H.264/AVC and H.265/HEVC algorithm are analyzed in order to exam spectrum efficiency achieved by implementation of the new technology. Expectations for the services are taken into account and the amount of digital dividend in terms of broadcasting services and capacity is calculated for chosen type of broadcasting system and coding algorithm.
