AM 라디오방송은 통상 수십~수백 KW 급의 대출력으로 송신을 하여 타 지상파 방송 매체에 비해 많은 전력을 필요로 하며, 이는 방송사의 재정적 부담을 안겨주고 있다. 본 연구에서는 AM 라디오 방송의 전력은 낮추고 음질과 서비스 커버리지는 동일하게 유지할 수 있는 송출효율을 높여 방송하는 방법들에 대해 고찰하고 적용 가능성을 검토하였다. 연구 결과 국내 AM 방송에 고효율방식의 송출이 기술적으로 가능하며, 이런 방식을 적용할 경우 송출 전력을 30% 이상 절감할 수 있을 것으로 예측되었으나, 현행 AM 라디오 방송에 관한 국내 기술기준으로는 적용이 불가하여 이의 개정이 전제되어야 함을 알 수 있었다. AM 라디오방송에 고효율송출방식을 적용할 경우 송출전력을 대폭 낮추어 방송사의 송출 전력요금 부담을 경감하고 유사 시 국민들을 위한 재난경보매체로서 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

오늘날의 TV 시청형태는 TV를 통해 본방송을 시청하기도 하지만 인터넷을 통해 TV 프로그램을 다운로드해서 보는 비율도 점차 높아지고 있다. 이제는 많이 알려진 IPTV나 스마트TV도 TV 프로그램을 언제든 손쉽게 접근해서 보는 기능이 우선시 되고 있다. 이런 측면에서 지상파 방송사도 방송과 인터넷을 하나로 묶어 온디맨드 콘텐츠 서비스는 물론 TV 프로그램 관련 정보를 제공하는 하이브리드 TV 서비스를 미룰수 없는 실정이다. 본고에서는 국내 하이브리드 TV 서비스인 OHTV(Open Hybrid TV) 서비스와 표준 기술에 대해 알아보고, 서비스를 확장하는데 필요한 기술들의 발전 방향을 전망해 보고자 한다.

현대문명의 얼굴인 텔레비전방송에 30여년 전 컬러텔레비전의 등장이래 가장 큰 혁신의 바람이 불기 시작했다. 세계 최대의 TV보유국가인 미국의 주요 방송사들은 1998년 10월부터 디지털방송을 개시하는가하면 일본은 2000년의 시험방송을 거쳐 2001년부터 디지털TV 본방송을 게시할 예정이다. 유럽도 1998년에 디지털 TV 시험방송을 시작한다. 영국의 BBC방송은 이미 1995년부터 디지털 라디오방송을 내보내고 있다. 우리나라도 2001년부터 10년간 단계적으로 모든 지상파 TV와 FM라디오방송을 디지털식으로 전환한다. 세계는 마침내 본격적인 디지털시대로 들어가고 있다.

KBS를 비롯한 지상파방송 3사는 실시간 UHD방송과 VOD 온라인 동영상 서비스가 결합된 세계 최초의 지상파 양방향 UHD 플랫폼인 Tiviva(이하 티비바) 서비스를 2017년 11월 오픈하였다. 티비바는 별도의 셋톱박스 없이 UHD TV에 직접수신 안테나와 인터넷을 연결하여 지상파 방송사의 실시간 방송 채널 외에 다양한 UHD VOD와 클립을 이용할 수 있고, 스포츠와 드라마, 종편(JTBC, MBN), 영화 등 50여 개의 IP채널을 추가로 볼 수 있는 서비스이다. 이후 2018년 1월에는 이용자 편리성과 자동추천 기능 등 UI/UX를 크게 개선한 티비바 2.0을 업데이트 하였고, 평창올림픽 기간에는 전 경기 실시간 스트리밍 및 올림픽특별관을 운영하였다. 2018년 6월 러시아 월드컵 기간에는 축구 경기 UHD HDR 방송 중계와 함께 티비바를 통한 HDR VOD를 최초로 서비스하여 스포츠 경기를 즐기는 또다른 즐거움을 선사하였다. 본 논문에서는 러시아 월드컵 HDR VOD 서비스를 준비하고 시행하기 위한 시스템 설계 및 진행과정, 기술 이슈 등에 대해서 기술하려고 한다.

This study attempts to evaluate the Korean terrestrial television networks‘ internet site effectiveness, specifically in addressing user motivations and user evaluations and in gauging the broadcasters' feedback. The result shows that the primary motive for using a broadcaster's internet homepage was to obtain information. Overall, the users tended to be dissatisfied with the services, especially with regards to its navigational structure and design and with the insufficient number of appropriate content items. The reason cited highest for dissatisfaction was the fee-based services. Among the three networks, Seoul Broadcasting System, the sole commercial network, received the most complaints from the respondents in this respect. The study results reveal that broadcasters' feedback systems to users were deemed responsive and timely, but a true interactivity between the broadcasters and the viewers was lacking. In conclusion, network televisions' internet sites and increased content access through them have provided a platform for increased communication with their viewers, however, these sites are not yet being fully utilized as effective interactive communication feedback channels but more as a unidirectional information source. In addition, the network television services seem to be lacking in providing users with efficient navigational structure, good design, or adequate content level and quality. Thus, to better serve the public, it is recommended that they improve internet homepage usability by assessing and applying qualitative researches regarding the users.

This paper purposes to identify who is/are in charge of KBS broadcasting programming in view of freedom of broadcasting and interest of audience under the circumstance that Blue House put pressure on KBS to refrain from reporting Sewol Ferry disaster. For this purpose this study has reviewed prior theses, books, journals, laws, and cases, etc. It is analyzed that principal agents in charge of freedom of broadcasting journalism and programming are KBS employees in charge of producing broadcasting programs and KBS chief programming officer, who is appointed by KBS CEO. KBS CEO, who can easily be influenced by governmental pressure in terms of KBS structure, should avoid interfering with programming and producing directly or indirectly for freedom of the press and public interests.

This study tried to examine the validity of the technical and institutional method to perform the purpose of public interest in terrestrial broadcasting. For this purpose, this study concentrated to the rate of direct reception of the terrestrial broadcasting that government and broadcasting company have offered since the digital transition. Results of analysis, it appeared that have not possibility of realization to set the direct receiving antenna and built-in Antenna for enhanced reception of the signal of the terrestrial broadcasting. Second, the MMS, if not enhanced the direct reception, was expected that repeated the retransmission through the pay broadcasting as the time of digital transition. Finally, the disaster broadcast was revealed that reduce the effectiveness of the UHD TV policy because of the mutual interference between frequencies and the incomplete solution of shadow area. According to these results, it is expected to be difficult for a while to perform the purpose of public interest in UHD TV.

The dual-stream based stereoscopic 3D broadcasting standard was developed in 2011. EBS broadcasted 3DTV experimental service according to this standard in April 2012. Dual-stream based 3DTV broadcasting is service-compatible and backward-compatible, so viewers who have legacy 2D HDTV can watch the broadcasting content as 2D. And 3DTV viewers can select watching 2D or 3D. Since 3D content production is not usual yet for terrestrial broadcasters, only some particular programs in specific periods will be broadcasted as 3D at the initiatory stage. For it, stable viewing condition is strongly required for both 2D viewers and 3D viewers. This paper suggests broadcasting transmission system structure and effective switching scheme for stable 2D and 3D viewing conditions in the case of dual-stream based terrestrial 3DTV broadcasting.

This study explores the factor which effects user's viewing on online in the situation of increasing viewing via OTT. After analyzing how the amount of news coverage and viewing rate affects user's active viewing, higher the number of views, In case of groundwave programs, if number of news coverage is high, hits of view and the number of comments is also high. While viewing rate, the number of views, the number of comments are independent of each other. In case of TV channels of comprehensive programming and cable TV, there is a interaction effect of viewing rate and the amount of news coverage. This study highlights the importance of the amount of news coverage when viewers is watching video on web.

The current study attempted to review the standards of retransmisison consent and arbitration for the terrestrial broadcasting signal. The standards are based upon the principles encouraged by the MIAC(Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications). It has been criticized that the standards of judgement for the retransimission consent and arbitration are ambiguous and arbitrary in Japan. In 2009, MIAC announced five decisions regarding the retransmission of over-the-air. The result of the current study found that the regulations of compulsory over-the-air signal retransmission have been sustained until now. The retransmission policy of the Japan government based upon three principles; localism, proper cause and copyright act. The judgment is dependent on the intrepretation of MIAC's standard about these three principles.
