2.3. Description of the Partnership

The partnership is gathering all the key regulatory authorities of the countries involved. Such authorities are institutionally in charge of the regulation and of the control/monitoring of the telecommunications and/or broadcasting in the respective countries. That implies that, in such a unique role, all of them are the responsible bodies for ensuring the television broadcasting in each country. The main challenge these bodies are currently facing is to ensure a smooth and effective Switchover to the digital broadcasting. In fact every partner developed a specific approach to address such an urgent and important role. These approaches, owing to the respective local conditions and the skills matured, will largely benefit of the setting up a common conceptual platform. In such a respect the Italian partners will bring in their multilevel peculiar approach and their capacity to act nationwide as well as at local level. In particular their experience concerning the legal implications and the awareness raising focus will be the added value they'll bring into the project. The Austrian case is particularly relevant, due to the federal structure of the Austrian state and their solutions in such a framework. The Hungarian and Slovene partners will contribute by bringing in the experience of countries that recently get used to deal with the EU regulatory framework and how to translate it into the national frameworks. IPA partners will get benefits from the project and at the same time bring their experience in addressing the (digital) divide/dividend in rural areas. At the end the principle of pulling efforts and finding new common solutions will ensure a more effective capacity to solve raising problems than it would be in the case of individual separate approach, which is neither economic nor rational in terms of actual achievement of the expected results.

AGCOM was established by Law n. 249/1997 and entrusted with regulatory and supervisory functions in the electronic communications and the media sectors. Independence and autonomy are its landmark aspects.AGCOM has been always committed to international cooperation. It has been an active member of the ERG since its establishment and ? since January 2010 ? of the BEREC, developing a wide experience in bilateral and multilateral exchanges of best practices. AGCOM has been running Twinning programs, to establ ish cooperation among institutions, created and fully funded by the EC. The first one, run with the Bosnian regulator CRA, started in 2005, lasted 14 months and involved around 80 experts. Its aim was to assist CRA in reforming the BiH audiovisual and electronic communications sector to allow it to tackle issues as the launch of DTT and the convergence process. AGCOM analyzed the BiH communications sector, drafted regulations to assist CRA approximate the EU Acquis and supported it in establishing the Bosnian DTT Forum, to harmonize the transition from analogue to DTT and to foster a valid switch off strategy. The second Twinning Project run with CRA started in 2007 and lasted 8 months. Its goal was to work further on the transition to DTT, in particular on the update of the frequency allocation table, the Frequency Utilization Plan and on staff training. In July 2008, AGCOM was awarded, as main partner in a consortium with BNetzA, a Twinning Project with the Egyptian NTRA. This Project, lasting 24 months, worth ? 1.500.000, started in November 2008 and covered all tlc-related regulatory areas, aiming to approximate the Egyptian regulatory framework to the Acquis. Finally AGCOM has been awarded, in a consortium with BNetzA and CMT, a Twinning with the Ministry of

The role of RTR is highly important due to the status of A/D switchover process in Austria. Considering the fact that Austria finished its Switchover already (only small gap-fillers need to be switched-off), RTR holds extensive experience in all processes escorting the digitalization process. RTR will contribute to the project in following areas which are determined taking into consideration its experience and competences: - WP1: participating in managing the project (PSC and PEB) - WP2: contribution to communication activities (organizing one national seminar/workshop and actively participating on transnational conferences) - WP4: Technical framework is the most important work package for RTR due to the lack of analysis and firm conclusions about future exploitation of the broadcasting spectrum, taking acount of the digital

dividend. RTR will therefore lead A1 dedicated in assessing existing technical framework. In addition and based on results under A1, RTR will contribute to development of the SEE Strategic Roadmap (A2) mainly interested in migration from DVB-T to DVB-T2 transmission standard. WP5: Contribution to the Analysis of A/D switchover strategies (A1) and further developments to more efficient technologies. WP6: Contribution to the Regional information campaign guidelines (A1), sharing the experience with Austrian model of information campaign. RTR will benefit from the project mainly in WP4 (Technical framework) where all open questions related to switch-over activities (e.g. analogue-to-digital, DVB-T to DVB-T2) will be performed.


Between 2004 and 2006 Austria took part in the DICE Project (Digital Innovation through Cooperation in Europe), which was partly funded by the European Union Interreg IIIC initiative. The other participating countries and regions were United Kingdom, Sweden, Lithuania, Poland and Hungary. From Austria several organisations (RTR, ORF, Siemens, Telekom Austria, Technical University of Graz, ...) took part. RTR took over a leading role in the Steering committee and participated in various working groups in the area of social acceptance, business models, frequency policy and regulation, technical platforms and interactive services. In the framework of the DICE Project a trial for DTTV was launched in Austria. RTR organized one main Conference and some working group meetings in Vienna. The results as well as the information and experience of the DICE project led to the Austrian DTTV Strategy, which resulted in the launch of regular services in 2006. A lot of case studies conclusions and recommendations which were published in the final report gave a valuable source of information and background material for the participants of the Project.

3. Project description

3.1. Project background

The aim of the project SEE Digi.TV is the harmonization of the activities in the target SEE region related to the introduction of the Digital Broadcasting services, in order to: (a) speed-up the overall process of analog switch-off in the region, (b) maximize the harmonization of the legislative and technical frameworks with the EU digitalization process, (c) avoid policy, technology and market fragmentation, (d) develop regional strategy for optimal use of freed frequency spectrum for new ICT broadband services and (e) efficiently manage digital dividend. The switchover from analogue to digital broadcasting in SEE Digi.TV region is by far more complex process than in other European countries, due to highly distinct infrastructural, legal, technological, e conomic, social and institutional disparities and diversities. Digitalization will open the doors to versatility of ICT services, which will significantly contribute to the sustainable development of the region and will lessen the digital divide.

3.2. Problem or challenge to be addressed

Problems: 1.Gap between EU countries and IPA countries in executing Analog to Digital (A/D) switchover process is



36/143

evident (only few countries in the region has started the process) and is limiting the possibility to fully exploit benefits of digitalization and digital dividend. 2.The region is characterized by highly distinct infrastructural, legal, technological, economic, social and institutional disparities and diversities, which may directly or indirectly affect the process of A/D switchover. As a result, the timeframes of digitalization significantly differs from country to country. 3.If inappropriately managed, the failure of A/D switchover process may have critical negative social and economic implications. 4.Un-coordinated digitalization of DVB-T services in the region may result in a technology fragmentation, resulting in an inability of the people in different parts of the region to access to more diversified, new audiovisual media as well as information society services. Challenges: 1.To develop regional policies and strategies and provide harmonized and timely-synchronized process of digitalization of broadcasting services in the region. The set of activities will consist of joint development of legislative, normative, economic and public awareness frameworks for the A/D switchover process which shall be harmonized with EU frameworks. 2.To maximize the exchange of knowledge, experience and best practice that will raise the chances for successful process in the region. 3. The analog switch-off shall release the spectrum, which can be used for broadcasting and broadband ICT services especially for rural parts, which will lead to diminishing the digital divide. Development of the regional strategy for the use of the spectrum and its transnational coordination is a challenge currently not addressed by other initiatives in the region.

3.3. Objectives of the project

SEE Digi.TV overall objective is to execute integrated and coordinated territorial development linke d to the A/D switchover process and prevent potential negative social,economic and technical implications in case of process failure at national and regional level. Specific objectives of the project are following: 1. To lessen digital divide by fostering development and implementation of new interactive services on highly penetrated DVB-T technology platform and coordinating digital dividend after analogue switch-off 2. To prevent possible negative social and economic implications of A/D Switchover process by providing a transnational platform based on knowledge transfer and providing coordinated activities and approaches 3. To reduce legal, technological and administrative disparities in the field of A/D Switchover process by providing harmonized legal, technical economic and information campaign approaches and actions 4. To facilitate the increase of quality and availability of digital TV infrastructures and access to services in the particular country and the region, by assuring fast and effective execution of A/D Switchover process 5. To close a gap between EU countries and project region in the area of digital TV broadcasting 6. To harmonize the technology used and standardization applied for DVB-T in the region 7. To reduce environmental pollution, since DVB-T needs approximately 5 times less power then analogue transmission system 8. To foster development and implementation of new services for people with disabilities and elderly people

3.4. Methodological approach

The methodology adopted for the Project is conceived so to facilitate establishing, testing and eventually providing a common ''functional platform'' for an effective and coordinated passage to digital broadcasting



37/143

technologies. It is therefore aimed at building up common knowledge, based on pulling and sharing of individual partner experience and know-how, at developing new common solutions to make A/D Switchover easier and more profitable, pursued through the establishment effective cooperation among all partner experts in different thematic areas of interest, at supporting IPA countries to speed up the adoption of EU digital standards, expected to be achieved by means of expertise circulation and sharing, and eventually to tackle possible A/D switchover issues (i.e.: frequencies' cross-border overlapping), thanks to a better and integrated communication and operational community to be established among all partners. In order to be effective 4 thematic frameworks have been identified to be components of the common platform: legal, technical, economic and public awareness frameworks have been defined so to allow addressing all project activities according to a clear and streamlined focus. A common methodological scheme has been conceived so to ensure the cons istency of the four frameworks under a common concept: 1. partners direct and active involvement in each of the frameworks (corresponding to a specific WP); 2. accurate project information and communication platform; 3. guidelines for each WP defined according to a collaborative approach (active involvement of the partners in guidelines development); 4. pulling of efforts, capitalization, best competence sharing and new solutions joint development (each partner will activate the best available knowledge in place); 5. wide public involvement, dissemination and permanent acquisition of project outcomes to ensure sustainability of results (combined approach to project communication and to awarenes raising inputs).

3.5. Transnational approach

The A/D Switchover in SEE Digi.TV region is by far more complex than in other European countries and regions. The region is characterized by highly distinct infrastructural, legal, technological, economic, social and institutional disparities and diversities, which are all increasing the (digital) divide not only on national level but also on regional level. The second problem related to the topic addressed is lack of experts and other resources in each particular country, which could turn the national A/D Switchover process resulting with negative implications. In order to avoid these problems and to endorse the development of new ICT infrastructures and services, regulators and their experts needs to be brought together and build -up a transnational platform. This approach was confirmed to be the most effective way of cooperation in the case of project "Principles to be used within Adriatic group (ITA, SLO, CRO, MNE, SM and ALB) in order to faciliate the transition from analogue to digital broadcasting in UHF bands IV and V".

3.6. Expected outcomes and durability

The project will have a massive impact on the region by assuring a coordinated, effective and efficient A/D switchover process. On the other hand, the project results will assure extensive leverage effects especially on the basis of: 1. developing a sound and progressive legal framework, which will be used as a foundation for the implementation of new technologies and services, which will minimize digital divide, 2. developing a conformity assessment service for the region, which is going to be used as a Type Approval Laboratory, 3. developing consortia and associate settings which will be a prerequisite for larger business development initiatives, 4. developing a communication, education and measuring tools facilities, which will be used for any kind of future communication.

3.7. Target groups/ stakeholders involvement

SEE Digi.TV project outputs and results will open up new opportunities for stakeholders adressed by the project. Especially for consumers (users of digital TV and new ICT services) and content providers but also for business and governments (digital dividend). Results from the project will be important for following stakeholders:



38/143

* Consumers/end-users will be acquainted with development related to A/D switchover and will have access to the new services and experience equal possibilities wherever they are located * Content providers and network operators will be provided with a legislative framework and technical and economic analyses which will help them to develop new businesses and services * Governments will be provided with a legislative framework which will support efficient and timely A/D switchover * Customer premises equipment (CPE) manufacturers and retailers will be supported with guidelines for conformity assessment in order to be able to provide qualified end-user equipment within the whole (unfragmented) region All above mentioned stakeholders will be addressed directly through the establishment of national digital broadcasting platforms conducted by regulatory agencies in each involved country and will benefit from the communication activities conducted by the project consortium. In order to maximize the utilization of project outputs and results and assure coordination and sustainability of the project, the project consortium will establish the transnational digital broadcasting platform with the Advisory board, which will consist of stakeholders contributing to the broadcasting sector. The Advisory board will be able to influence decision making process either by acting as advisors or giving their consent on decisions directly influencing the group of stakeholders they are representing.

3.8. Capitalisation of results

The previous project "Principles to be used within Adriatic group in order to faciliate the transition from analogue to digital broadcasting in UHF bands IV and V" has been focused in the frequency planning coordination work conducted by regulators from partner states. The project was only partially addressing the complexity of the Switchover process, since topics like the design of legislative framework, technology selection and deployment, public awareness program, economic and social impact assessment, have been untouched. SEE Digi.TV is opening a new opportunity window for the broadcasting sector to implement their solutions and technologies faster and efficiently on the basis of exchange of experience, best practices and mutual strategy development and planning. The innovative character of this project is in the fact that the digitalization process was never before implemented on a regional scale, taking into consideration all important areas of intervention proposed by this project.

3.9. Possible internal or external constraints during and after project implementation and solutions

foreseen

Conflict resolution: As in any multi-member project and organization, Digi.TV will face conflicts in the course of its development and partnership. In the event of controversies that may involve financial, technical, ethical or intellectual property rights, the following procedures will be adopted: - The partner are required to submit request in written text to the Project director; - A Steering Committee (correspondence) meeting will be held accordingly to discuss the issue. In the discussion, a mediator will be appointed for the best interest of both parties to resolve the controversies according to the Partnership Agreement; - If the dispute cannot be resolved, the Project director will notify the responsible Project Officer at the Programme level for discussion and put forward a further proposal to resolve the issue. Risk management: In order to minimize risks of not achieving the objectives and to assist project management in implementing actions and consortium related processes, risk management method and tools will be incorporated in a project management. This will systematically identify, analyze and asses risks and develop contingency plans for handling them and allocate responsibilities to the partner best placed to manage particular risks. Initial risk log was already prepared in order to identify factors which could endanger the implementation



39/143

of the project. Summary of risk factors and activities to minimize them is following: - internal conflicts which would endanger execution of some activities; establish and execute appropriate internal communication follow rules of conflict resolution - delays in execution of activities/providing deliveries; apply project management methods and tools, realocate resources if needed, re-plan - resources are being underestimated; realocate activities and resources within the consortium if possible on a level of Executive Board - organizational or other changes reflected decreased involvement; raise issue on PSC

3.10. Contribution to the Community Cohesion Policy and the Programme's overall objective/strategy

''To promote the harmonious, balanced and sustainable development of the Community [...] reducing the economic, social and territorial disparities'' (from Art 3 of EC Reg. 1083/2006): in the project territorial context - i.e. the area where future enlargement will take place - such a general objective gains a very peculiar and strong meaning. There are no doubts on the fact that communication plays a mayor role in pursuing such objective and will do so even more in the near future. The challenge that digitalization implies in television broadcasting is a corner stone for future communication and media in the project area as well as in whole Europe. Moreover ICT is widely perceived in EU cohesion policy as a crucial factor for the future development and competitiveness of European territories. Digi.TV is aimed at pursuing objectives that are contributing substantially to such challenges and objectives since it tries to fight off specific territorial disparities in the project areas and it fosters social cohesion throughout the western Balkan areas. Direct benefits are expected to be achieved: exploiting the positive potential that is stemming from the terrestrial digital TV, improving coordination among authoritie s of different countries and regions on a very sensitive and complex issue (different regulations, widespread cross-border areas, rural-urban divide, etc.). Further indirect benefits, in line with the EC cohesion policy, are eventually expected from the project: economic development (from the digital dividend), social and democratic consolidation (from the wide and equal access to television and media). As far as the SEE programme objectives and strategy are concerned the Project, by addressing communication digital platforms issues to be faced by means of an effective transnational partnership, will work on a basic constituent of democracy and citizenship, i.e. improving information and media, strategic matter for cohesion, stability and competitiveness.

3.11. Contribution to the specific objective of the Programme's selected Priority and AoI

Digi.TV project concept is basically aimed at overriding the constraints imposed by variable technological solutions adopted in the area and by national barriers on such a specific and highly sensitive matter that is TV broadcasting and to address its evolution to the digital. That means developing common transnational actions for ensuring a smooth shift to the terrestrial digital broadcasting and for maximising the potential such a change offers from the social, institutional and economic point of view. In particular the project, as far as the digitalization of television broadcasting is concerned throughout the project partner area, is oriented to take advantage of the change and take the opportunity to lessen the 'digital divide' among territories, local communities and regions especially in weaker or marginal areas. In fact the project envisages concrete and direct actions which will contribute to the accessibility of territories, information and services via ICT. The partners, i.e. the key actors of the communication development and of guaranteeing equal access to communication media and broadcasting, are front line players in such a matter, and are committed to ensure impact and sustainability in the actions undertaken in the project.

3.12. Environmental sustainability



40/143

Environmental

sustainability

Positive

SEE Digi.TV activities have influence to the environment when considering that the broadcasting itself is poluting the environment with electromagnetic field. One of the 8 project objectives is therefore to reduce environmental pollution with 5 times lower transmission power when Digital broadcasting will be introduced. Due to the advanced technology, Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) is using 5 times lower power to cover the same area in comparison with existing Analogue technologies. In addition, implementation of DVB networks means also lower energy consumption for operating the network. In order to evaluate how much energy will be saved, let us take for example the middle size country where in average 8MW of energy can be saved for two multiplexes carying 16 (DVB-T) to 24 (DVB-T2) programs.

3.13. Equal opportunities

Equal opportunities Positive

Un-coordinated digitalization of DVB-T services in the region may result in a technology fragmentation, resulting in an inability of the people in different parts of the region to access to more diversified, new audiovisual media as well as information society services. Digital broadcasting is predominantly free-to-air technology with a unique characteristic that it is available to all population, because its coverage goes to every corner of the nation, without any discrimination on the use of services. The objective of the project is to foster and coordinate activities which will result in distribution services to everyone in SEE region no matter of their gender or ethnicity. The analog switch-off will release the spectrum, which can be used for broadcasting and broadband ICT services (as a result of using digital dividend) especially for rural parts, which will lead to diminishing the digital divide and providing equal oportunities for the population.

3.14. Level of joint cooperation

The potential beneficiaries will cooperate in at least two of the following ways:

Joint development of the project’s idea Yes

SEE Digi.TV is being developed jointly by all

project partners. Moreover, all partners have

been showing very high motivation to prepare

and execute this project due to their need for

coordinated approach for executing Analogue

to Digital Switchover process as well as to

coordinate digital dividend in the region.

Joint implementation of the activities Yes

Every partner is playing a very important and

active role in the project implementation and

coordination. Planned activities are distributed

among partners according to their expertise

and area of responsibilities they have in each

particular country. In order to assure the



41/143

highest possible involvement and possibility to

coordinate the project execution, every partner

will have one seat in Project Steering

Committee and one seat in Project Executive

Board.

Joint staffing Yes

The project will have joint staffing on following

levels:

- Project Steering Committee and Project

Executive Board, where every partner will have

one seat for coordinating and managing the

project;

- All project activities are based on high level of

mutual cooperation and exchange of

knowledge and expertise;

- Lead partner will appoint Project director and

Project manager providing independent project

management of the project.

Joint financing Yes

The project is jointly financed by the project

partners, whereas every partner in the

consortium shows financial commitment to the

project. Overall the project is well balanced.

3.15. Innovative character

The project activities are based on and are dealing with a turnaround innovation in the television broadcasting all over Europe: the digitalization of the overall system. That implies working on the capacity of the partners, and of the public at large, to get the maximum benefit from such an innovation and at the same time to minimise the potential risks and possible drawbacks. The concept of the project and the partnership are just being designed to that purpose. The way the cooperation among the partners has been conceived and the integrated approach proposed in the project, are a further innovation element: national public authorities and agencies, responsible for communication surveillance and control, are expected to work according to a synergic approach that should enable exploiting mutually the existing experiences and competences and facilitating the adoption of good practices. The fact that the representatives of the official bodies in charge in each country are direct Digi.TV partners, is expected to enable experimenting new forms of cooperation between EU member states representatives and accessing countries officers. Moreover on such project platform innovative solutions and new ideas are due to be developed on legal, technical, economic as well as public awareness frameworks. The final result of such an innovation process should be the possibility to count on a consistent platform among the communication agencies of the programme territory so to pursue a more consistent and



42/143

coordinated television digital broadcasting system, speeding up the switch-over process in the areas that currently behind schedule, if compared with the EU relevant agenda.

3.16. Synergies with other policies, programmes and projects

Digital switchover is a part of eEurope 2005 action plan, published under EC ''switchover Communications'' COM (2003) 541 which addresses the market situation (technical, economic), policy options and spectrum implications. It emphasizes following: ''The supporting role of Member States, whose policy interventions should be transparent, justified and proportionate and timely to minimize the risk of market distortion''. The ''Communication on accelerating the transition from A/D broadcasting'' COM (2005) 204 addresses in particular the economic benefit of additional spectrum released by terminating analogue terrestrial television (switch-off). This offers a unique opportunity for the re-use of premium part of the radio frequency spectrum for the provision of new types of services, above all, new cross border and pan European electronic communications services. Following EU regulation and abovementioned communications all European countries need to prepare A/D switchover plans which are in line with EU and national policies and networks.

3.17. Consistency with the local, regional and national policies of the involved partners

The partners are key players in the A/D Switchover and digital dividend coordination processes on a national, regional and EU level and as such, proposed activities are consistent with national, regional and EU policies related to digitalization process. This is especially valid for following two policies published by the EC: ''policy switchover Communications'' COM (2003) 541 and ''Communication on accelerating the transition from A/D broadcasting'' COM (2005) 204, which have been adopted on a national level by all countries involved by adopting national A/D Switchover strategies and plans. Moreover, project partners are active in working groups such as: - EPRA (European Platform of Regulatory Authorities), aims at providing a forum for informal discussion and exchange of views between regulatory authorities in the broadcasting field, for exchange of information about common issues of national and European broadcasting regulation and for discussion of practical solutions to legal problems regarding the interpretation and application of broadcasting regulation; - TVWF Contact Committee, Dir 97/36/EC established the Contact Committee to monitor the implementation of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive and the developments in the sector and as a forum for the exchange of views; - CBISS (sub-group of COCOM), the Communications Broadcast Issues Subgroup operates as a sub-group of the Communications Committee (COCOM). The sub-group is a forum for examination of more complex broadcasting issues falling under the new regulatory framework for electronic communications, prior to discussion in COCOM. The output of the sub-group is intended to provision debate in COCOM and prepare the ground for consistent interpretation and ''best practice'' across Member States; - other working groups organized within the EC and on a national level.

Title Legal framework

Responsible Partner ERDF PP2 - AGCOM



4.3.2. Description



58/143

Work will focus on the elaboration of regional normative specifications for digitalization that will be aligned with EU legislation and its implementation into national frameworks. Normative documents will define the rules for spectrum use of the digital dividend in the region and guidelines for deployment of new broadcasting/broadband services which will lessen the digital divide. Activities under this WP will be focused into: - analysis of existing legal framework in the region which will provide good foundation for further development of legislative framework; - preparing Regional guidelines for further development of legislative framework, which will take into consideration all diversities in the region as well as lack of legal framework in each particu lar country; - implementation of regional guidelines on national level by promoting and introducing best practice, experience and knowledge from the whole region; - considering the fact that efficient use of the digital dividend is the final goal of the di gitalization, regional guidelines will be developed alligned between all partners in order to prevent defragmentation of the region and enable faster development implementation of new services; - as funding and co-financing models are very often used to eliminate severe obstacles for a successfull switchover and prevent important stakeholders in the digitalization process to become reluctant to changes, these will be analysed and proposed in order to help national authorities with implementation.

Title Analysis of existing legal framework

Timeframe 01/01/2011 - 31/05/2011


Description of the activity Analysis of existing legal framework will be prepared for the countries of the entire project area. Existing legal framework wihich is regulating the area of digitalization in respective countries is by far not harmonized or alligned. In addition, the problem of proportional development of digitalization in the project area is very evident, resulting in big differences among participating countries. The goal of this task is to analyse existing legal framework in all participating countries and providing a solid background for elaboration of regional guidelines, which will help countries to develop their legal framework efficiently. AGCOM will act as responsible partner for preparing the analysis for ERDF countries and be responsible for communication with all IPA partners in order to get input from them. The final analysis will be focused predominantly to the countries of weekly developed legal framework.

Title Elaboration of funding framework guidelines

Timeframe 01/04/2011 - 30/11/2011


Description of the activity Funding or co-financing models are very often used to eliminate some of the obstacles for a successful switchover. On of the most obvious is linked to the end users and their readiness to purchase appropriate receiver (STB or iDTV). In addition, there are many more possibilities for easing financial burden of digitalization, by providing financial support for broadcasters, netowrk operators and other stakeholders in the process. When providing such a support, strict regulations and general rules shall be applied in order to avoid irregularities and possible failure of this kind of action. In order to help countries developing their system of co-financing, Guidelines on how to develop funding framework will be prepared. Special attention will be paid to identifying the range and structure of the most vulnerable groups (pensioners, low-income households, households with members who are persons with disability ?) and variety of available funding schemes. IPA partners will contribute to elaboration of funding guidlines by providing information and its experience (for example on Croatian subsidizing model used for supporting end users by digital receivers in technological neutral manner).

Title Technical framework

Responsible Partner ERDF PP1 - SINTESIO



4.4.2. Description

Work will focus on technical aspects of the digitalization and use of digital dividend. Impacts of the use of different broadcasting technologies and coding schemes will be assessed with respect to capacity/service planning (program allocation, services types), switch-off timeline, future upgrades and end-user service acceptance in order to avoid technical fragmentation of the digital broadcasting in the region. A set of technical recommendations for the use of broadcasting network equipment and user equipment will be developed. Considering the fact of technology development being very fast in broadcasting and due to different implementation timelines throughout the region, assesment of the existing Technical framework will be performed twice (at the beginning and end of the project). The assesment will form a solid foundation for further development of implementation activities in the region. These assesments will be used for elaborating Strategic roadmap, which will not be important only for the region and its countries but also wider, for the whole Europe. The last important technical issue to be tackled when considering Analogue to Digital switchover and use of digital dividend is the question of interoperability between network equipment and user equipment which can, if inapproprietly handled, lead to market distortion and cause huge problems to involved stakeholders and especially end users. In order to avoid this, receiver specifications need to be adopted as soon as possible. Specifications shall be prepared respecting implemented technologies and shall be as much as possible alligned within the region. Assuring that the receivers on the market are according to the specification is guaranteed through conformance test procedures, for which guidelines will be prepared within the project.

Title Assesment of the Technical framework

Timeframe 01/01/2011 - 28/02/2013


Description of the activity We have been facing extensive development of technology in recent years, where several decisions had to be reached while executing digitalization process. There were a lot of discussions going on whether to use MPEG2 or MPEG4 coding standard and recently, whether to use DVB-T or DVB-T2 transmission standard. All these, and many more technical decisions have to be in place much before the digitalization process actually starts, but also when the ASO is already finished (as this is the case in Austria). Within this activity, State-of-technology will be assessed in the project arean, Constraints in GE06 for analogue und digital broadcasting usage of different standards (MPEG2/MPEG4, DVB-T/DVB-T2) their advantages and disadvantages ,



69/143

frequency sharing with other services like radio microphones re-arangement activities of GE06 Plan and similar. After a succesfull execution of Analogue to Digital switchover in each particular country, the process of digitalization is not ended, but continues with activities related to use of digital dividend. Assesment of technical framework will therefore cover technical possibilities to use digital dividend, therefore its execution will be streched throughout almost complete project duration. The Output of this activity will be the Assesment report on existing technical frameworks in the region in two issues. One will be prepared in the beginning of the project, focusing on use of technologies for executing ASO process and the other one at the end, focusing on use of technologies after analogue switch-off. Both issues of report will contain overview of technologies for use of digital dividend.

Title Developing regional receiver specifications and conformance test specifications

Timeframe 01/07/2011 - 31/01/2012


Description of the activity When executing ASO process, availability of receiver specifications and conformance test specifications is essential in order to prevent non-conformancies between new digital networks and receivers which are bought on the market by end-users.



70/143

The project goal is therefore to prepare receiver specifications and conformance test specifications in the form of guidelines, on the basis of which every national authority could develop their own specifications in a very short time. Preparation of specifications will be based on the outputs of activity 4.1 and 4.2.

Within this activity, State-of-technology will be assessed in the project area, Constraints in GE06 for analogue und digital broadcasting usage of different standards (MPEG2/MPEG4, DVB-T/DVB-T2) their advantages and disadvantages , frequency sharing with other services like radio microphones re-arangement activities of GE06 Plan and similar. After a succesfull execution of Analogue to Digital switchover in each particular country, the process of digitalization is not ended, but continues with activities related to use of digital dividend. Assesment of technical framework will therefore cover technical

possibilities to use digital dividend, therefore its execution will be streched throughout almost complete project duration. The Output of this activity will be the Assesment report on existing technical frameworks in the region in two issues. One will be prepared in the beginning of the project, focusing on use of technologies for executing ASO process and the other one at the end, focusing on use of technologies after analogue switch-off. Both issues of report will contain overview of technologies for use of digital dividend.

Role of each IPA partner - CROATIA IPA FLP will contribute to preparation of the assesment report on existing Technical framework in the region (1PM).

Title Economic framework




4.5.2. Description

Economic aspects of A/D switchover process and use of digital dividend are essential when executing other work packages, such as Legislative framework and Technical framework. One needs to provide important decisions respecting the market and its possibili ties to develop, implement and market new and existing services. One of the most important stakeholders in this process are service providers and network operators which all seek for the opportunity to develop their businesses and be prevented by any obstruction of existing business. Economic survey targeting the impact to the digitalization to the stakeholders and economic benefits of the exploitation of the digital dividend will be in focus of this work package. Current economic features of stakeholders involved in the A/D switchover process and its economic impact will be assessed as well. In addition, focus will be given on the design of viable solutions for SMEs to cope with the impact of the digitalization.
