Some integrated Digital TV sets (iDTV) are available in the market having an in-built set-top box or DVB-T2 tuner. Only an antenna to be connected to the TV set for watching DTT (DVB-T2) channels.

DVB-T2 (DTT) signals are typically broadcasted by big TV towers (like TV towers for analog reception) on VHF or UHF frequencies over the air. DVB-T2 signals can be part of the VHF or UHF spectrum. So many countries are moving to this new technology due to its high-quality digital picture quality and digital sound.
