Direct-To-Mobile (D2M) Technology Services:
Indian telecom operators have asked the government to auction the spectrum that will be used for direct-to-mobile (D2M) technology services.
- D2M is similar to that of an FM radio, where a receiver within the device can tap into different radio frequencies.
- This new-age technology is a combination of broadband and broadcast that uses mobile phones to capture territorial digital TV signals.
- Using D2M, multimedia content, including live TV matches, can be streamed to phones directly without using the internet.
- D2M can ensure emergency alerts are delivered directly, reliably and without dependence on internet/cellular networks.
Disaster Management audio content is delivered directly and authentically in a targeted manner. - With D2M, governments can broadcast citizen-centric information.
- This approach benefits consumers by reducing their reliance on internet data consumption for staying informed and entertained.
