Abstract: This article summarizes plans for direct broadcasting by satellite (DBS) in the 12-GHz band in Europe. Services using the MAC-packet transmission standard adopted in Europe will commence this year. Though it had been thought that implementation of high-definition television was some distance in the future, this highly competitive program environment will spur the introduction of a higher-definition television service suitable for large, wide aspect-ratio screens with stereo sound. An important feature of this evolution, namely the capability of the MAC-packet system to deliver this new form of television while providing conventional pictures to existing receivers, is identified.
