This report proposes an international benchmark for DTT rollout and Analogue Switch-Off (ASO) practices
and also presents guidelines for the ASO.
It addresses the issues and prospects of the (Second) Digital Dividend and details business models for the
overall process of transition to digital, including three country cases in the low- to mid-GDP/pop range.
What are the key standards and technologies used in DTT, mobile TV, digital radio and mobile
broadband? What are the trends, internationally?
Where do we stand in terms of DTT rollout and ASO processes in the world? What are the key
driving factors?
Following the ASO in Europe, what are the lessons learnt? What are the best practices and key
milestones for a smooth transition?
Is there any room for cooperation between the worlds of telecoms and TV in the spectrum split?
Towards a Second Digital Dividend in EMEA?
What is the business case for the digital transition in low- to mid-GDP/pop countries? What
investments and costs are necessary? Who is funding the transition? What role should
Public-Private partnerships be playing?
