In June 2015, AsiaSat announced the plan to deploy Asia’s first dedicated Ultra HD (UHD) in the next few months. This has been great effort taken by us since 2014 to promote knowledge and awareness of Ultra HD in Asia. In January 2014, AsiaSat cooperated with Hong Kong Cyberport Management Company Limited to demo a live Ultra HD broadcast through AsiaSat satellite. AsiaSat also supported Ultra HD broadcast of international sporting events, for example, the first-ever live telecast of the 2014 FIFA World Cup matches held on 28 June (Round of 16), 4 July (Quarter-Final) and the Final on 13 July 2014 in Brazil.  

In this paper, we will touch some critical technical aspects of Ultra HD on the development and feasibility. And then we will walk you through the efforts that AsiaSat has been working on so far for this area.
