China sets multimedia broadcasting standard for mobile phone content - report
10.24.2006, 11:30 PM

BEIJING (XFN-ASIA) - China has issued a technical standard for broadcasting multimedia content such as television programs to mobile devices, the Wall Street Journal reported.

The newspaper quoted a statement by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television as saying the home-grown standard 'is very important for the growth of our indigenous industry and multimedia broadcasts for mobile devices.'

The statement did not give a name for the new standard, or provide further details, the newspaper said.

But an official with the agency told the newspaper that the standard applies broadly to mobile devices, including mobile phones.

The move comes as China tries to kick start the development of its own technologies, including third generation mobile-phone technology.

Chinese mobile carriers are waiting for the Ministry of Information Industry, which regulates the telecommunications industry, to issue licenses for 3G mobile-phone service, which allows users to surf the Web at high speeds and also watch TV shows on their mobile phones.
