Digital terrestrial television in Indonesia (DVB-T2) began in 2010 and, in most areas, operates alongside the analog TV system. The first phase of the nationwide analog shutdown took place in 166 regencies and cities, including Dumai, Banda Aceh, Batam, Tanjungpinang, Serang, Bali, Samarinda, Tanjung Selor, Tarakan, Makassar, and Jayapura, starting on 30 April 2022. Dumai was the first to shut down, with the rest of phase one following before phase two began. The shutdown process was simplified into three stages, originally scheduled for 17 August 2021 but postponed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and concerns about public readiness.[1]
An analog broadcasting station in Jakarta, along with non-terrestrial services in 173 regencies/cities, was officially shut down on 2 November 2022 at midnight,[2][3] except for ANTV, RCTI, MNCTV, GTV, and iNews, which completed the shutdown on 3 November 2022 at midnight.[4]Batam, Bandung, Semarang, Surakarta, and Yogyakarta followed suit on 2 December 2022, Surabaya on 20 December 2022, Banjarmasin on 20 March 2023, Bali and Palembang on 31 March 2023, Makassar on 20 June 2023, and Medan on 30 July 2023.[5] On 15 July 2023, Trans Media (Trans TV and Trans7) and Emtek/SCM (SCTV and Indosiar) officially completed their analog shutdown. On 31 July 2023, at midnight, Viva Group, RTV, and NET TV officially completed the nationwide analog shutdown,[6] followed by MNC Group on 1 August 2023 at midnight.[7][8] On 12 August 2023, Indonesia's digital terrestrial television fully transitioned to high definition across all thirteen local free-to-air terrestrial television stations.[9][10]
History
On 20 May 2009, two television broadcasting consortiums completed a trial run for digital television.[11]
On 5 March 2015, the State Administrative Court (PTUN) of Jakarta repealed Ministry of Communication and Informatics Regulation No. 22 of 2011, which had previously been canceled by the Supreme Court.[14]
The first analog broadcasting television station was officially turned off on 30 April 2022, followed by three additional phases of analog shutdowns in Indonesia. Analog broadcasts in Jakarta, along with non-terrestrial services in 173 regencies/cities, were completely shut down on 2 November 2022.[15] Only ANTV, RCTI, MNCTV, GTV, and iNews continued airing analog broadcasts in Jakarta until they were shut down on 3 November 2022 at midnight.[4]
On 12 August 2023, Indonesia's digital terrestrial television fully transitioned to high definition across all thirteen local free-to-air terrestrial television stations.[9][10]
Frequency usage
Indonesia's telecom services share bandwidth as follows:
Analogue System: 478MHz to 806MHz
Digital System: 478MHz to 694MHz
Mobile Broadband: 694MHz to 806MHz
Regulation
Communication and Information Ministry Regulation No. 32 includes provisions covering terrestrial and broadcast technologies:[17]
Digital Broadcast through the Terrestrial System is provided by LPP TVRI, local LPPs, LPS, and LPK.
Multiplexing Broadcast through the Terrestrial System is provided by LPP TVRI and LPS. These services must adhere to open access and non-discriminatory principles.
Other LPS and LPS with analog broadcasts may rent bandwidth from LPS at the discretion of the Minister of Communication and Information.
Local LPPs and LPKs with analog broadcasts must cooperate with LPP TVRI.
Note: LPP or Lembaga Penyiaran Publik (Public Broadcaster), LPS or Lembaga Penyiaran Swasta (Private Broadcaster), and LPK or Lembaga Penyiaran Komunitas (Community Broadcaster).
The only significant change between the old and new regulations was the elimination of the analog switch-off. The term "zonal" was replaced with "provinces," which also sets the new initial time for digital broadcasts. Zones and provinces are now the same, as well as the licensing requirements.
The Indonesian Local Television Association (Asosiasi TV Lokal Indonesia - ATVLI) intended to appeal to the Supreme Court again if the new regulation, particularly the multiplexing license selection, remains burdensome for local television broadcasters.[18]
Digital area
The digital transition under Communication and Information Ministry Regulation Number 32 divided Indonesia into five regions:[17]
Less Developed Economy Area 5: Includes Papua, with the transition beginning in Q1 2015.
The new regulation stated that both analog and digital broadcasts could continue without any set time limit. As of mid-2014, no broadcaster had definitively transitioned to digital broadcasts.
Broadcasters
As of August 2012, TVRI was the sole broadcaster providing digital television in Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, and Batam. TVRI had 376 analog transmitters, 30 of which were ready to transition to digital.[19]
At the end of September 2012, Metro TV began its initial digital television broadcasts in the following locations:[20]
Jakarta
Bandung
Semarang
Surabaya
Malingping, Padeglang, Anyer, and Cilegon in Banten Province
Distribution
The plan was to distribute 6 million free set-top boxes to low-income families before the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Vendors offered set-top boxes capable of receiving signals from DVB-T2 through UHF, making it unnecessary to replace analog antennas.[21][22] However, the plan was not successful. The first set-top box distributions were carried out by Banten Sinar Dunia Televisi (BSTV), which held a Zone 4 license covering Jakarta and Banten. These set-top boxes were distributed in Malingping, Banten, in conjunction with Proclamation Day on 17 August 2014.[23]
Some brands released LED TVs with built-in DVB-T2 tuners.[24]
