ISG MBC mission statement

The group will develop use cases and commercial requirements enabling future wireless networks to deliver more efficiently mass market broadcast services to mobile devices. Delivering both linear and non-linear media over converged networks will create appealing services and be very beneficial to existing standardisation work ongoing in the area of eMBMS in 3GPP as well as future 5G standards.

A comprehensive report will be produced exploring the deployment and business models of converged networks encompassing all industry views.

The ISG will take into account the potential benefits and challenges from the commercial, regulatory and technical perspectives of all interested parties.

We would like to encourage the involvement of all wireless network operators, broadcasters, content owners/providers, terrestrial and satellite broadcast network operators, network infrastructure vendors, manufacturers of consumer equipment, fixed line broadband operators.
