Creating an Innovative Broadcasting with Technology and Standardization

Tadaaki Yokoo

Radio systems in broadcasting and telecommunications, as seen in digital broadcasting and smartphones have been increasingly advanced. Today, they are essential for our economic activities and social life. The Association of Radio Industries and Businesses (ARIB) devotes itself, as a standards development organization (SDO) to foster information and communication technology (ICT) society through contribution to radio systems. The paper describes ARIB's role and activities to enrich and enlarge broadcasting services and industries by introducing its study, research and development (R&D) and standardization work on various broadcasting technologies and systems. Among them, the work on ultra high definition television (UHDTV) systems is highlighted. Also, an issue on standards and essential industrial property rights is touched upon.
