Mobile TV
Mobile TV is heating up, with trials and limited services cropping up in Europe, Asia and the US. Turns out there are a lot of competing standards. Qualcomm is in the mix with TDtv and MediaFLO. DVB-H and two flavors of DMB are competing standards.
I need to read more, but my first impression is that H.264 is common across these different standards as the video layer. What varies is the transport layers (i.e. spectral band, modulation, etc.)
