other environmental impacts of broadcasting facilities can lead to optimal outputs. What is important is that going green provides operational efficiency at lower costs while helping the environment. The BA Mt. Owen renewable- supported transmission facility is an excellent example of harnessing Green Technology which uses a hybrid (wind, solar and generator) power system to generate the required energy.
Operational efficiencies for Broadcast Infrastructures
Maurice Snell of Snell discussed the technical challenges of using a combination of generic protocols such as SNMP, and vendor-specific protocols, to provide cost-effective user configurable end-to-end control and monitoring systems. A key requirement of monitoring is to give operators tools to help rapidly identify and resolve issues that arise. A wide range of products from Snell include cost effective, integrated and easy to use GUI’s giving intuitive access to monitor and control all underlying equipment.

Quality of Experience (QOE) for next generation video network
Klaven Siow of Tektronix presented this workshop which looked into quality assurance using QOE monitoring from content acquisition to delivery. QOE can be used as a technique to isolate and identify problems within the video stream giving a comprehensive set of possibilities for the cause of a problem. It does this with deep inspection of every packet across the channels frame by frame comparing each to the video and audio quality matrices. In addition, optimisation of compression bitrate can also be performed reliably.

are impacting the way radio is experienced by the listener. The current trend is to provide radio content over internet in the form of podcasts, or else provide more information via web pages for more interactivity. Radio broadcasters are using all platforms for delivery of content and while the method is platform specific, the content genres, their formats and duration are quite different. Some real life examples were highlighted as the content creation issues that broadcasters have to face and overcome in the future.
DRM – Practical Considerations for a Successful Service and Network Roll-out
Dr Albert Waal and Alexander Zink of DRM presented the DRM Disaster & Emergency Warning System, Data Contribution & Multiplex Distribution Network and Automated Service Monitoring. They focused on considerations and network setup for a successful service launch, as several countries are in that process.

Co-Existence between DVB-T/T2 and LTE: Case study in Norway
Pascal Gelugne of ATDI touched on the co-existence between DVB-T/T2 and Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks set up by telcos. The digital dividend is bringing new technologies and other wireless delivery systems closer to the broadcasting channels. Through a case study in Norway, the potential impact of Wireless Broadband Access on digital TV network was assessed and recommendations to overcoming issues highlighted.
