Qualcomm's MediaFLO mobile TV technology is to undergo technical trials in Taiwan as part of an agreement between Qualcomm and China Network Systems (CNS), the largest MSO (multi-system operator) of cable TV in Taiwan, and Taiwan Television Enterprise (TTV), a leading terrestrial TV broadcaster. The trials are set to go ahead later in March according to CNS and TTV.

Four CNS live content items and up to three TTV live content items will be assigned for the trial. Both companies want to test the technology for possibly delivering mobile TV services in the territory. Qualcomm's Internet Services & MediaFLO Technologies president Peggy Johnson, said the trial will be a field demonstration of MediaFLO to other markets in Asia and even around the world.
