Summary of Notice of Inquiry
1. In accordance with The Satellite
Home Viewer Extension and
Reauthorization Act of 2004 (SHVERA)
(Pub. L. 108–447, section 207, 118 Stat.
2809, 3393 (2004) (to be codified at 47
U.S.C. 325), 204(b)) the Commission
requests comment and information to
assist us in determining if existing
statutes and/or regulations that establish
a television signal strength standard for
identifying households that are
unserved by local network TV signals
are adequate for use in identifying
household unserved by digital
television broadcast signals (DTV).
Households that are unserved by a local
broadcast television station are eligible
to receive distant network signals from
satellite services. The Commission also
requests comment on whether statutes
and regulations need to be revised to
take into account the types of antennas
and receiving equipment that are
available to consumers for reception of
digital television signals. The record
obtained through this inquiry will be
used to prepare a report to Congress
describing the results of this study and
any changes that should be made to the
applicable Federal statutes or
regulations.
2. This Inquiry will review current
regulations that identify households that
are unserved by a local analog broadcast
television stations in order to determine
if the regulations may be accurately
applied to local digital broadcast
stations for the same purpose. The
Commission has been directed by
SHVERA to review six specific factors
related to determining if a household
will be classified as unserved
concerning the reception of digital
television signals.
3. We are requesting relevant
technical information to determine if a
new standard should account for the
fact that an antenna can be mounted on
a roof or placed in a home and whether
the antenna will be placed in a fixed
mounting or be capable of rotating.
Information about the cost and the ease
of deployment as well as the effects of
the use of a rotor with the antenna
should be included with comments.
4. We will consider whether 47 CFR
73.686(d) should be amended to create
different procedures for determining the
requisite digital signal strength at a
location. Portions of § 73.686(d) require
an individual conducting measurement
of the television signal available in a
specific location to utilize
characteristics of an analog television
18MYP1
 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 95 / Wednesday, May 18, 2005 / Proposed Rules
signal to complete the measurement. We
request information regarding amending
the rule so that it will be able to account
for the measurement of digital television
signals, such as where to tune and the
proper setting for the i.f. bandwidth of
the measurement equipment. The
Commission will also consider a
procedure for measuring signal intensity
indoors along with criteria that would
determine when an indoor or outdoor
measurement should be performed.
5. The Commission further asks if a
standard that does not require the
presence of a signal of a certain strength
to ensure that a household can receive
a high-quality picture using antennas of
reasonable cost and ease of installation
should be developed. Suggested
standards should include sufficient
information as to how the standard will
insure that reception of service will
occur and how the standard may be
affected by currently available or soon-
to-be available reception equipment.
6. The Commission also seeks
comment on whether to develop a
predictive methodology for determining
whether a household is unserved by an
adequate digital signal under 17 U.S.C.
119(d)(10). We seek to determine if the
modified Longley-Rice model, with
appropriate modifications, would
accurately predict digital signal
coverage at a specific location, or
whether there is some other predictive
model that would be more appropriate
for this purpose. Commenting parties
are asked to propose specific
modifications to the model and provide
detailed analysis as to how the changes
VerDate jul<14>2003 18:53 May 17, 2005 Jkt 205001
will result in a more accurate model
when accounting for environmental
features and possible signal
interference. If an alternative model is
suggested, we ask that it include
specific technical information
concerning its effectiveness in
predicting DTV service at a location as
well as information that will enable its
use by the Commission.
7. We request information as to
whether there is a wide variation in the
ability of reasonably priced consumer
digital television sets to receive over-
the-air signals, such that at a given
signal strength some may be able to
display high-quality pictures while
others cannot, whether such variation is
related to the price of the television set,
and whether such variation should be
factored into setting a standard for
determining if a household is unserved
by an adequate digital signal.
Commenting parties should provide
information regarding the sensitivity of
various receivers and their interference
rejection capability. We ask that these
comments be accompanied by price data
and analysis regarding the correlation
between performance and price. We also
ask if there are specific parameters that
we should measure when performing
our own analysis on the DTV receiving
equipment. We ask if significant
differences in digital receiver
performance quality exist, should those
differences be accounted for when
determining whether a household is
unserved by an adequate digital signal.
If the Commenting parties recommend
that digital receiver quality be a factor
PO 00000 Frm 00018 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 E:\FR\FM\18MYP1.SGM
28505
we ask that the parties provide detailed
analysis and explain how receiver
quality can be used in ascertaining
whether a household is unserved.
Finally, we ask how limitations in
receivers can be mitigated through the
use of higher performance antennas or
auxiliary devices.
8. Finally, we seek comment on
whether to account for factors such as
building loss, external interference
sources, or undesired signals from both
digital television and analog television
stations using either the same or
adjacent channels in nearby markets,
foliage, and man-made clutter. In
particular, interference from both co-
channel and adjacent channel TV
transmitters could cause interference to
the desired signal and we ask for
comment pertaining to this type of
interference. We request comment on
how well digital TV receivers and
satellite set-top-boxes with built-in off-
air receivers perform when contending
with interference and should
performance specifications be taken into
account by the Commission in order to
determine when a household is
unserved by an adequate digital signal?
Finally, what additional factors, if any,
should be included when determining
the availability of a DTV signal at an
individual location?
