Tiivistelmä
Digital migration was agreed in the year 2006 by all the member nations of the ITU to ensure that all member countries switched from the analogue to the modern digital mode. The modern digital mode would take advantage of the latest technological advancements in telecommunication to provide more value with more content, more reliable content and multiple channels for customers to choose. The aim of this thesis is to assess the status of digital migration and policy implications.
Nigeria is one of the countries that is a signatory to the ITU and which has been in the process of moving from analog broadcasting to the digital broadcasting. Many challenges have been faced. Various service providers from different international companies have taken advantage of these policies and standards to expand their market share and to act as an option for the customers in Nigeria. This thesis discusses the digital migration, identifying the various challenges and opportunities that arise and also discussing the new broadcasting model that will come out of it.
