Until a few years ago, you should have seen anyone who stretched the antenna on the train and watched a 1Seg TV on a smartphone.However, few people now use smartphones on the train to watch 1Seg.This was because the smartphone was no longer equipped with a one -segment function, which had a major impact on a trial about the NHK receiving contract.

NHK reception contract for smartphone with 1Seg

One -segment is a newly provided mechanism when terrestrial television is digitized (terrestrial digitalization), and is sent to smartphones and car navigation systems using a part of the channel broadcast by terrestrial digital stations.The name 1Seg is an abbreviation from using one of the time when the terrestrial digital channel is divided into 13 "segments".

After the start of terrestrial digital broadcasting in 2006, the one -segment function of the mobile phone could be called for each company.Even in the smartphone era, the one -segment function has been installed in many models, but in the past two years, the model with one -segment function has been drastically reduced.Currently, smartphones that can receive 1Seg are limited to only a part, such as seniors.

The reason why the one -segment function was cut from the smartphone is that "TV specifications are different in each country, so it is difficult to handle global models", "an antenna is needed outside the main unit and the screen is disadvantageous".However, a more great influence was that the trial was determined in the case that one -segment devices also needed an NHK reception contract.
