Harris Broadcast is now shipping the broadcast industry's first comprehensive solution compliant to the new ATSC standards for transmitter synchronization, ensuring that broadcasters have an all-in-one terrestrial and mobile platform to improve over-the-air signal coverage and maximize viewing audiences.
The ATSC A/110: 2011 specification provides the standards-based solution for ATSC broadcasters to enable single-frequency networks.
