Dr. Richard Chernock, the chief science officer of Triveni Digital, will succeed James Kutzner as head of the Technology Group 3 working on developing ATSC 3.0 broadcast TV standards.
Michael Dolan, an industry consultant for The Nielsen Co. and founder and president of the Television Broadcast Technology consulting group, assumes his new role Jan. 1. ATSC 2.0 is the stepping stone to ATSC 3.0, the next-generation standard, and will let broadcasters offer content in non-real-time, premium content using conditional access and improved service guides. Audience measurement is also expected to improve under the new standard.
