"The study's objective is to compare the capital and operating costs of alternative methods of delivering extended television and radio service to all of the population of Canada, using DBS as a basic technology. Of specific interest is the power at which DBS will operate and the impact this power level will have on ground segment costs for two categories of potential DBS subscribers: individual households that will be equipped with a direct to home terminal (DTH subscribers); and small communities that could be serviced by a "low cost" passive cable system, similar in design to MATV systems in large apartment buildings - subscribers in such communities have been designated as "Indirect Passive Cable" (IPC) subscribers"--Executive summary, page x. gccst Satellites gccst Television gccst Radio Savard, Benoit, author.
