Abstract: The paper investigates a unified architectural framework that integrates digital video broadcasting-second generation terrestrial (DVB-T2) with IP-based broadcasting to enhance hybrid TV service delivery, improve spectrum efficiency, and support adaptive multimedia distribution. Using a controlled testbed environment, DVB-T2 transmission parameters--including physical layer pipes (PLPs), constellations, and code rates--were combined with IP-based delivery mechanisms such as MPEG-DASH adaptive streaming, multicast IP transport, and broadband return channels. Scientific evaluations were conducted across multiple performance indicators, including spectral efficiency (bits/s/Hz), channel throughput, latency, and quality of experience (QoE) metrics. The study confirms that hybrid DVB-T2/IP systems provide superior resilience and adaptability in dynamic network environments, particularly in regions with fluctuating terrestrial signal quality. This unified approach offers broadcasters a scalable pathway to support interactive applications, customizable content delivery, and high-definition or ultra-HD multimedia services without additional spectrum consumption. Overall, the findings highlight the effectiveness of integrating broadcast and broadband technologies as a forward-looking strategy for next-generation hybrid TV ecosystems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
