Is it true that DVB-H offers only a limited frame rate compared to other systems?
Frame rate is a function of the coding technology you choose and the parameters you choose at your encoder. These choices are based on the content you are trying to encode, the size of your target receiver screen, and how much processing power/memory is available in the receiver. For example, you are naturally going to choose a different set of parameters for HDTV on a 50″ plasma display than those you would use for a small mobile phone screen. One of the factors that should be taken into account, particularly for low-definition small-screened displays, is frame-rate. It will clearly take less processing power to decode a sequence at 15fps (frames per second) than it does an equivalent sequence at 25fps. Other parameters you can play with are resolution, audio compression, etc. It should be noted that video frame rate has nothing to do with the transmission technology you use, for example DVB-H or T-DMB. In many of the trials conducted so far using DVB-H, the receiver used was a Nokia
