Mobile TV interactive in DVB-T broadcast network hybrid with WiFi

Digital television (TV) has been replacing analog TV in many countries. Content broadcasting applications therefore are developed widely including on the smart phone as the non-DVB enabler device. This paper aims at developing an application on the smart phone that receives program and transmits a request to the server as DVB-T transmitter. The target is to develop an application that allows smart phone interactively connected to DVB-T transmitter. As the first target we develop an android-based smart phone. We use DVB-T signal for downlink transmission and wifi for the uplink connection. This interactivity may include file sharing, polling, etc. using non-DVB enabler devices. Therefore the development of a system that can convert DVB signal into WiFi-IP based protocol signal is big challenge in this work.
