SAVANT Project:

Broadcast + Broadband Convergence enables the simultaneous

transmission of contents via cable broadcast, terrestrial broadcast and broadband telecommunications networks.

广播网 (DVB) 和 宽带网 (xDSL)结合可以多媒体内容 得同步传输

SAVANT Project:

Scaleable Services Allow TV content to be consumed flexibly using

different devices in different situations: For example, a Set-Top-Box (Home Gateway) can

be connected to PDA and Tablet PC with WLAN. Contents on the portable devices can be used when they are not connected to the STB.

人们可以使用无线连接 也可以通过用无线网络连接的个人数字助理 (PDA), 平板电脑(TablePC) 和机顶盒 , 以在线或离线观看电视节目

SAVANT Project:

Additional Information Delivery The DVB standard (MPEG2-TS) allows

content in addition to a TV picture to be broadcast. For example, extra video clips (MPEG-4) showing sign language, extra audio tracks, web information (HTML), and subtitles

INSTINCT Project:

Multiple convergenceConvergent networks 结合的集中网- Networks exploiting the same scalable content

Convergent services 结合的集中服务 - Services designed to exploit cooperation between broadcast and telecommunications networks.- Use scalable content

The aim of INSTINCT 主要目的 A carrier-grade fully specified and open final platform for the delivery of convergent services in collaborating wireless communications and terrestrial broadcast networks.

INSTINCT is planned in three phases over six years.

Each project phases will last 2 yearsPhase 1: Jan 2004 - Dec 2005

INSTINCT Project: A key target

INSTINCT Project:INSTINCT will deliver1. Service creation tools for hybrid (cooperating)

broadcast/cellular networks.2. A system architecture including management

functions.3. API extensions enabling inter-working between

DTV and Cellular platforms.4. Prototype broadcast front-ends that will be

suited for mobility requirements (low-power, low volume, low cost).

5. Training material and curriculum to teach operational actors

Brazilian involvement in INSTINCT:

A model for Chinese involvement in FP6 The first two-year phase of INSTINCT started on 1 January 2004 with 9.6 million euros of funding by the European Commission in the Framework Programme 6. Of this funding 1.5 million euros is going to the five Brazilian partners.

Brazilian partners work is completely integrated into the project and in many cases contributes directly to the work of non-Brazilians partners.

在 INSTINCT中，巴西的加入

Brazilian involvement in INSTINCT:

Participation in INSTINCT enables Brazil to- Enter a phase of active cooperation and transfer of knowledge in view of a growing awareness of DVB technologies in Brazil

- Develop general and specific partnerships for the next generation of technologies and standards

在 INSTINCT中，巴西的加入

Brazilian involvement in INSTINCT:

Phase 2 of INSTINCT It is anticipated that Brazilian partners will participatefully in Phase 2 of INSTINCT. The focus of phase 2 will be on content and service creation (and related tools), although equipment aspects and network aspects will still be addressed. The introduction of new partners will be considered for phase 2 in order to match the proposed objectives.
