Bargaining power of DTH operator with CPE supplier has increased due to supply. Transponder is provided by Astrix, ISRO hence dependency exists and due to no regulations in channel pricing, DTH operators are at mercy of Broadcasters. Bargaining Power of Buyer-High Consumer has the power to choose in this industry with variety. Unless players can differentiate against each other, the market shall remain mostly homogeneous. Customers will have high bargaining power and will be influenced by costs versus services. Threat of Substitutes- Medium DTH faces major competition from Terrestrial, Cable & IPTV. Doordarshan is world’s largest Terrestrial broadcaster with over 1400 transmitters and covering 88% of India geographical area. They offer Digital service in collaboration with BBC resources. This wide reach and low cost approach are offset by its lack of attractive content. Cable TV operates in 2 modes: CASwhich requires separate set top box and Non Addressable system.

...routing is one of the important tasks in this process. A detailed router connects pins of signal nets in a rectangular region under a set of routing constraints, such as the number of layers, the minimal space between the wires and the minimum wire width. The quality of this detailed routing has a strong influence on the performance and production costs of the circuit. The detailed routing in a rectangular region with pins exclusively located on the upper or lower boundary of the routing region is called “channel routing”. It is one of the most commonly occurring routing problems in VLSI circuits. The channel routing problem is NP-complete and, therefore, there is no deterministic algorithm to solve it in a fixed time frame and the problem of finding a globally optimized solution is still open. There have been plenty of results in this topic from the last few decades. ➢ The question that arises naturally is: What is a channel? A channel is a horizontal routing area with fixed pins on the top and bottom. There are no pins to the right or left, but certain nets may be designated as route-to-the-edge. Thus we say that there may be “floating pins” to the right or left. Each pin is designated by a number. All pins...

...its antecedents and consequences are asymmetric and non-linear. The basis for this research resides in the key idea that people are usually more sensitive to negative information than to positive information, and that losses loom larger than gains. Thus, negative events are not only more salient to customers, but they also have a disproportionately larger impact in the satisfaction judgment formation process, and the consequent consumer intentions and behaviors. Much of this research is summarized in an award winning paper by Professors Eugene Anderson and Vikas Mittal. The general findings, as summarized in their paper show: - Negative performance on an attribute has a larger impact on overall satisfaction than positive performance. Thus, the deleterious impact of failing expectations is proportionately much stronger than the beneficial impact of exceeding expectations by the same amount. This finding has been widely confirmed for many different industries and customer types. - The association between overall satisfaction and repurchase intentions as well as behaviors is also non linear. CHAPTER 1.2 INDUSTRY PROFILE Telecommunication: Telecommunication occurs when the exchange of information between two entities (communication) includes the use of technology. Communication technology uses channels to transmit information (as electrical signals), either over a physical medium (such as signal cables), or in the form of electromagnetic waves.

...Rural Marketing Quite clearly, large Indian companies have begun looking at rural markets seriously. Some of them are even developing exclusive marketing strategies to tap this huge mass of consumers. Of India's one billion plus population, nearly 70 per cent live in non-urban or rural areas. According to a National Council for Applied Economic Research (NCAER) study, there are as many "middle income and above" households in rural areas as there are in urban areas. There are almost twice as many "lower middle income" households in rural areas as in urban. According to NCAER's projections, the number of middle and high-income households in rural India is expected to grow from 80 million to 111 million by 2007. In Urban India, the same is expected to grow from 46 million to 59 million. Hence the absolute size of middle and high income households in Rural India is expected to be nearly double that of Urban India. Percentage Distribution of household population and income | |Households |Population |Income | |Rural |73.6 |74.6 |55.6 | |Urban |27.4 |25.4 |44.4 | |All India |100 |100 |100 | Thus we see that Rural India contributes almost 56% to the National Income as against 44% contributed by Urban India.

...CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION The ultimate aim of every organization is to sell the products, which the company manufactures and to make profit. A successful product or service means nothing unless the benefit of such a service can be communicated clearly to the target market. Today’s world is full of competition. And manufacturing the product is not enough, the same product needs to be communicated or the consumers should be made known about the availability of the product.

...CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1: ABOUT LCD TV: A liquid crystal display (LCD) is a thin, flat electronic visual display that uses the light modulating properties of liquid crystals (LCs). LCs does not emit light directly. They are used in a wide range of applications, including computer monitors, television, instrument panels, aircraft cockpit displays, signage etc. They are common in consumer devices such as video players, gaming devices, clocks, displays in most applications. They are usually more compact, lightweight, portable, less expensive, more reliable, and easier on the eyes. They are available in a wider range of screen sizes than CRT and plasma displays, and since they do not use phosphorus, they cannot suffer image burn-in. LCDs are more energy efficient and offer safer disposal than CRTs. Its low electrical power consumption enables it to be used in battery-powered electronic equipment. It is an electronically-modulated optical device made up of any number of pixels filled with liquid crystals and arrayed in front of a light (backlight) or reflector to produce images in colour in 1983. By 2011, worldwide sales of televisions with LCD screens had surpassed the sale of CRT units or monochrome. The earliest commercially made LCD TV was the Casio TV-10 made watches, calculators, and telephones.
