This paper describes a database of measured terrestrial Digital Television (DTV) channels to be made available on the web to stimulate research in the improvement of future DTV receivers. Features that are likely to impact the capability and design of 8-VSB HDTV receivers are studies by processing the data. Frequency and time-domain channel models depicting these features are provided and their implications on the design of 8-VSB receivers is discussed.
