For digital terrestrial broadcasting systems, this implies that more efficient utilization of spectrum must be realized with the help of enhanced physical layer (PHY) techniques. On the other hand, in the domain of IPTV, service providers are looking forward to offer HDTV services through wireless broadband channels such as WiMAX, WiFi, UWB, and 3G/4G cell phone. In view of the high data throughput requirement of HDTV signals, innovative techniques that facilitate efficient delivery of HDTV services over wireless broadband channels must address issues such as capacity and real-time implementation. The purpose of this special issue is to report recent progress in enhanced physical layer and diversity techniques that would facilitate HDTV to be delivered over both terrestrial and wireless broadband channels. Of special concerns are innovative techniques that improve spectrum usage, channel capacity, bandwidth, coverage, and quality of services (QoS). Experts from both academia and industry are invited to submit high-quality manuscripts that describe the latest research results. Discussions on existing systems/standards are also welcomed if the results include objective comparison of different technical solutions and concrete suggestions on how to improve existing systems/standards to achieve significant performance enhancement. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Coding and modulation: Turbo codes/LDPC, COFDM, BST-OFDM, SOFDM, VSB - Transmit/receive diversity techniques: cyclic delay diversity (CDD), discontinue Doppler diversity (DDoD), equal gain combining (EGC), maximal ratio combining (MRC) - MIMO techniques, wideband MIMO channel models, channel estimation and equalization, and time and/or frequency synchronization Practical issues relevant to enhanced PHY: frequency utilization, dynamic bandwidth/robustness control, backward compatibility, coexistence receiving techniques, network planning, service coverage and on-channel repeater design consideration - Hardware prototyping, that is, system-on-chip and software-defined radio techniques, field testing and measurement campaign relevant to enhanced PHY Authors should follow the International Journal of Digital Multimedia Broadcasting manuscript format described at the journal site http://www.hindawi.com/journals/ijdmb/.
