Digital videoinformational systems (VIS)
In crowded places of cities (the squares, railway stations,
stadiums, streets, the airports, underground and etc.) are
used traditional, basically static ways of representation of
the visual information in the form of posters, bills, a panel,
and etc. Today it is already clear, that in near perspective
basically they will be replaced with the displays working
day and night, in any weather, in different climatic
conditions. The slightest nuances in transmitted images
will be visible. All this will provide interactive VIS.
Fig. 15
In creation of programs for VIS, in integration of
broadcasting and VIS the telebroadcasting companies,
content companies, computer services, and also the
numerous telecommunication companies in connection
with increase in their traffic are interested. Changes in
advertising activity regarding use of "home" and "outdoor"
TV screens are possible.

Use of loud-speaking means in most cases extremely is not
effective because of the limited zone of collective reception
and an opportunity of transmission only one channel of a
sound accompaniment. Significant advantages will be
provided with autonomous service of viewers by means of
standard terminals of mobile communication. Such
approach offered by Russia, became lawful in a kind of
their escalating distribution (the general number in the
world already today makes at least 4 billion at the
population of the Earth about 6,7 billion).

The sphere of digital TV broadcasting extends, it
overgrow in one of dominating a component of an
information society, considering, that the eye delivers to
the person more than 80 % of all received information.
Communication and many mass media are more and more
involved in it. The global approach offered by Russia, will
help to solve new problems, including creation VIS.

The steps of creation the digital dividend
Barring of widening
of TV and HDTV
standard radio
channels by
approval of the 6-78 Concept, which
preserves the
existing channels
and frequency plans
refusing requests for
new frequency
bands allocations.
Release of
analogue TV radio
channels by
implementation of
the multiprogram
TV 6-7-8 Concept,
which has
provided the
transmission of
several TV
programs within
one radio channel.
The Magazine Policy Tracker in March 2008 published that
FCC’s 700 MHz auction in 698-806 MHz band could be called
the largest spectrum auction in US history – bids totaled nearly
US$19.5 billion.
Release of a part of
digital TV radio
channels due to the
progress of video
compression, new
methods of formation
of TV images
transmission and
emission of their
signals, which will
allow to increase
considerably the
number of TV
programs transmitted
within one radio
channel and also due
to the introduction of
VIS.
