Bharti Telemedia, a subsidiary of Bharti Airtel Ltd, has chosen Ericsson Group’s Tandberg Television’s advanced IP head-end for the launch of a new Direct to Home (DTH) satellite TV service in India. Bharti Telemedia’s DTH system will use a range of solutions including the iSIS 8000 IP head-end and MPEG-4 AVC standard definition encoders. The system is one of the first satellite DTH platforms in the world to benefit from the compression efficiencies of standard definition MPEG-4 AVC, significantly increasing transponder capacity and potentially doubling the amount of available channels. The DTH services will be launched nationally across India, and Bharti is setting up an infrastructure near Gurgaon (Haryana) for uplinking and broadcast.
