CANADA​
Canada is exploring ATSC 3.0 convergence with 5G to make data delivery more efficient. The Humber College Broadcast-Broadband Convergence (B2C) Lab researches opportunities for ATSC 3.0 to be divided into multiple IP streams to carry television and non-television (data) services simultaneously to both businesses and consumers.
INDIA​
India has many citizens who watch TV primarily on mobile phones. To enhance India’s coming 5G network for massive video use, a unique plan will use ATSC 3.0 as a slice within it. The new service is called Direct to Mobile (D2M) which will enable India's 5G network to offload video to ATSC 3.0 to enhance the 5G network for video distribution and provide free live TV.​​
JAMAICA​
Jamaica brings its unique creative culture to their ATSC launch. This 60- second TV spot puts the ATSC 3.0 feature set to a reggae beat! On the practical side, Jamacia and several Caribbean countries are looking to ATSC 3.0 for emergency communications. Countries that experience frequent hurricanes are looking to ATSC 3.0 when hurricanes cause power and telecom outages.
