MVDS

MVDS is an acronym for terrestrial "Multipoint Video Distribution System."

MVDS currently is a part of broader MWS (Multimedia Wireless System) standards. In European Union MWS works in 10.7 - 13.5 and 40.5 - 43.5 GHz frequency bands.

Research for 42 GHz frequency has been done under the European Commition EMBRACE (Efficient Millimetre Broadband Radio Access for Convergence and Evolution) initiative.
