(Best Media Info): Prasar Bharati tests say D2M broadcast won’t heat phones or hurt 4G, 5G networks
IIT Kanpur–Tejas Networks lab study on a 40W D2M transmitter in 470–582 MHz finds no harmful interference on key mobile bands and only a marginal rise in handset temperature, but wider trials still needed.
Public broadcaster Prasar Bharati has released lab test results indicating that proposed Direct-to-Mobile (D2M) services in the 470–582 MHz band do not overheat phones or interfere with 4G/5G networks under the tested conditions.
The tests were conducted by IIT Kanpur and its partner, Tejas Networks, at Aracion Technology, a NABL-accredited and TEC-designated laboratory in Bengaluru. They used a 40W D2M Broadcast Radio Head based on ATSC 3.0 and a D2M-enabled smartphone that also supports multiple LTE and 5G bands.
