A dispute over price for retransmitting terrestrial channels between Terrestrial Television Systems and Cable TV System Operator(SO)s has been underway up to now since 2007 and expected to last unless there is a measure of extraordinary countermeasures. Thus, in this paper, we present a scheme for calculating the reasonable price on retransmitting terrestrial channels. Re-transmission price calculation scheme is presented in two ways. One is to calculate the price for the extent to which Terrestrial broadcasters and Cable broadcasters contribute, and the other is to calculate the price for terrestrial channels retransmitted by applying the method of Cable TV PP program fee basis. In addition, on profit-sharing scheme and criteria for program fee we present two ways of subscription, which are flat sum system and fixed rate system.
