Evers, R.R.EversAnders, K.E.K.E.Anders2022-03-082022-03-081977https://publica.fraunhofer.de/handle/publica/312842For a laboratory model of an interactive CATV system services are presented and classified. The problem of predicting usage parameter for non-existing services in a non-existing network is discussed. An approach to gain a first preliminary set of data describing the distribution of demands and requirements of the various services is presented. It starts from the contents offered by means of a service and from the way these contents are offered at present and tries to estimate the extent to which they might be taken over into a CATV system. The approach is described in more detail by an exemplary service offering educational programmes.encable televisionnew serviceslaboratory modelinteractive catv systempredicting usage parameter621Predicting the way new services will be used in an interactive CATV systemconference paper
