DTV channels 2. Methods of receiving a digital signal. What channels are available for viewing

With the advent of the digital terrestrial television era, many cable and satellite subscribers are increasingly thinking about connecting free broadcasting... Indeed, according to the FTP, on the development of the digital broadcasting network, in open access will appear more than twenty television channels in excellent quality absolutely free. Which includes mandatory federal television channels.

The question arises - how to connect digital terrestrial television at home?

This is not difficult. To receive digital terrestrial television, you will need any subscriber equipment of the standard DVB-T2 / MPEG-4 with mode support Multiple PLP and decimeter antenna ( UHF) range. The antenna can be either collective (installed on the house, it is also called common in the house) or individual, installed directly in your house or apartment. Depending on the distance to the transmitting center, the correct antenna must be selected. They are divided into active (with an amplifier) \u200b\u200band passive. When buying an antenna, you can first check the power of the transmitting equipment installed in your area and the distance to the transmitting center. Based on the data received, select an antenna.

Approximate coverage radius of transmitting stations:
10 watts - about 3 km;
50 watts - about 5 km;
100 watts - about 15 km;
500 watts - about 25 km;
1 kW - about 30-35 km;
2 kW - about 35-40 km;
5 kW - about 40-50 km.

Let's go directly to the equipment for receiving. Three main groups can be distinguished: TVs with a built-in DVB-T2 tuner, set-top boxes of the same standard and digital computer DVB-T2 tuners. Their setup is similar, if not the same.

Check if your TV can receive DVB-T2 signal

Video: how to set up digital terrestrial television DVB-T2

It is best to connect a digital terrestrial set-top box according to the manufacturer's instructions, it is almost impossible to make a mistake there. Also, you can watch the official video from RTRS:

Several recommendations, also from RTRS:
connect the antenna cable plug and, if necessary, digital set-top box to the TV;
connect autosearch of channels - the TV will tune to the corresponding digital terrestrial channel, when tuning to a channel in manual mode you must specify the frequency of the channel (for example, 35 TV channel, 685 MHz);
most digital TVs (and set-top boxes) have a built-in signal level and quality indicator, which will optimally tune your antenna to receive digital broadcast signal (see the operating instructions for the TV).

On TVs with a built-in DVB-T2 tuner, all manipulations are carried out through the TV menu. Difficulties should not arise there either.

We recommend updating the software of your subscriber equipment to the most current one. This can be done in specialized services, or yourself (if you are confident in your abilities). Software can usually be downloaded from the manufacturer's official websites.

Free digital channels are becoming the new norm, delivering services that are unique in quality. DTV strides confidently across the country, covering not only Moscow, but also many other large regions. And all because the age of modern technologies implies the most rational and competent use of innovative technical means. Such as transmission of image-sound using digital signal programming at specific digital frequencies. In this case, the quality is transferred to the highest levelabsolutely not being subjected to all kinds of interference. In connection with the expansion of bandwidth, it is possible to view more programs of a wide variety of topics. The exact lists are being specified for each individual region covered by the federal broadcasting of TsETV, but now you can connect to the most advanced television, which improves its services every season.

To watch free terrestrial channels on the territory of the Moscow Region, you will need to purchase and install an individual UHF antenna. Your home TV must be equipped with a DVB-T2 digital tuner (digital TV standard). For older models, you need to buy a set-top box that supports MPEG 4 video compression, as well as the Multiple PLP mode. After that, it is enough to professionally connect the equipment and configure the terrestrial DVB-T2 channels that are broadcast from the Ostankino TV tower. The coverage area today is almost 95% of the Moscow region.

The ordered list of TV channel frequencies is designed to make setup as easy as possible, including older non-HD TVs. Today, open digital channels are broadcast without subscription fee, in addition to the first, the second and third multiplexes were launched with the ability to view 10 programs in each, now there are already 20 of them. It is worth remembering that the equipment of the first generation of the DVB-T format is not capable of supporting new standard, it was officially disabled in early 2015. Having at its disposal terrestrial antenna and a DVB-T2 tuner, you can easily connect a large package of news, entertainment, sports, music programs.

Article 37. Erotic publications

Law of the Russian Federation of 27.12.1991 N 2124-1 (as amended on 13.07.2015)
"About the mass media"

The distribution of specialized radio and television programs of an erotic nature without signal coding is allowed only from 11 pm to 4 pm local time, unless otherwise established by the local administration.

For the purposes of this Law, a mass media specializing in messages and materials of an erotic nature means a periodical or program that, in general and systematically, exploits an interest in sex.

Retail sale of mass media products specializing in messages and materials of an erotic nature is allowed only in sealed transparent packages and in specially designed premises, the location of which is determined by the local administration.

The installation of a TV antenna available to all viewers makes it possible to receive digital television in Moscow, broadcasting is carried out in the dvb-t2 standard. The analogue broadcasting system is a thing of the past and will be completely disabled in the near future. The reason for this is the improvement of radio frequency technologies. If earlier there were no more than 18 programs from the Ostankino tower, then in 2016 there are already 30. The channels work digitally and are grouped by 10 at one frequency, such a package is called "Multiplex".

1. The first multiplex Ostankino TVK 30, frequency 546 MHz
2. Second multiplex Ostankino TVK 24, frequency 498 MHz
3. Test third multiplex Ostankino TVK 34, frequency 578 MHz

For local repeaters, the broadcast parameters may differ. The decree of the Government of the Russian Federation assumes the widespread launch of twenty federal, free channels... Towers under construction and operating in the Moscow region can be found in the right block of the current page.

Pros of terrestrial digital television

Reception digital television in Moscow is possible on any TVs, with the difference that older models will need a dvb-t2 receiver. This is a small attachment with a separate remote control through which control is carried out. The signal from the antenna is fed to the receiver, and you can connect it to the TV with a tulip or scart cord. How to set up the receiver is described in the user manual. The newer flat panel TV types already have a tuner built in, look for dvb-t2 in the specifications and try to find digital channels. If it does not work, check the cable connection and find out if you have a usual cable TV.

The main part of the set of equipment is the antenna, the quality of terrestrial television reception depends on its power. For Moscow, usually, an antenna with a medium gain is enough. In some cases, a more powerful option is required. This happens when a country cottage, private house or summer cottage is located in a lowland and surrounded by tall trees. The distance to the tower also plays an important role. Installation is desirable in the highest part of the house, installation is carried out on a small bracket or steel mast. The price of work will vary depending on the complexity, the exact cost is calculated by the master using the standard price list, taking into account current discounts and promotions. Connection is made to existing cabling using an amplifier and dividers. The master can arrive the next day after receiving the order.

The federal program provides for digital television coverage of the entire territory of Russia by 2015. Already today, many regions of our country can enjoy high definition television in HD format. But this pleasure is not available to everyone (everyone can watch it, but not everyone can see it))).

How to know if your area has DVB T2 signal coverage

Very simple! To do this, go to the official website of the federal project, in the "Network coverage map" section. You will be presented with an interactive map, where you can find your location or the nearest settlement by entering them into the search bar and choosing from the drop-down tips:

At first glance, nothing complicated, but also there are some nuances here ( did it on their knees and did not explain how to use it ) ... Pay attention to the right top corner digital TV cards, and see what there is.

By default, the checkbox " Broadcasting points"- in fact, these are TV towers that broadcast in DVB T2 format, and rTRS-1 TV channel package... These are the first ten information channels of digital television. To see if you get into the broadcasting area of \u200b\u200bthe TV tower, check the "Broadcasting zones" checkbox, as well as "TVK, frequency", the map will be painted in cheerful colors:

"Green" towers are workers. There is also the frequency and number of the channel on which the signal is transmitted

If your area is painted, and there is a "green" tower nearby, then everything is probably fine. You will definitely catch at least the first ten channels. The frequency of the towers will come in handy for you, so remember it, or better write it down, as well as the number of the channel on which your "digit" is broadcasting.

But that is not all.

The fact is that the first and second multiplex are transmitted by different towers and at different frequencies.

This means that, for example, the first ten channels may already work for you, but the second ten - the tower is just being built and it often happens. It is easy to check it, go to the "RTRS-2 channel package" tab:

Second multiplex - as we can see, there are much fewer green towers

We will again be shown the towers, while, most likely, not all of them will be green, as in the first case. Since the first towers were built for the first multiplex, they have been built long ago and broadcast the first ten channels. But the second multiplex is worse. However, if there are no "green" towers near you, do not despair, click on the gray ones, there will be information about the construction stage and approximate commissioning.

Of personal experience I will say that in the mother's region, the first multiplex arrives from the tower 10 km away, but the second one - from the neighboring region, 45 km away from her house. True, an external antenna "dryer" is used here, with an amplifier, on a high pillar. Naturally, without an amplifier, she catches nothing.

We receive detailed information on the tower. At least it has already been built, which means that it will launch soon!

From time to time they slip " friezes". However, judging by the map, a tower with a second multiplex is being built nearby, so everything will be fine soon.

I hope you now figured out how to determine the coverage area of \u200b\u200bdigital TV, and learned how to correctly interpret the digital TV map on the official website of the project. It's time to move on to the next step.
