The Pengzu Fuyang Festival in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province is a local food festival spontaneously formed according to the local food tradition of "Futian eating Fuyang" that has been popular for thousands of years since ancient times, and the fire collection and transmission has always been the highlight of the festival. This year's 20th China (Xuzhou) Pengzu Fu Sheep Festival Tinder Collection and Relay was held on June 28, the collection ceremony was held in Pengzu Garden, and the relay route passed through a number of famous attractions in Xuzhou City, with a total of 50 torchbearers participating in the relay.
Xuzhou Radio and Television Media Group undertook the live broadcast task of the event, to this end, Xuzhou TV set up a core live broadcast team composed of more than 60 people, and formulated various live broadcast business plans such as operation, testing and guarantee.
In this relay event, along a route of nearly 25 kilometers, the live broadcast team set up a total of 20 fixed and mobile slots. Due to the large number of live broadcast points and wide coverage, and the need to carry out mobile broadcasts, how to ensure stable signal backhaul has become the biggest challenge. According to the summary of Xuzhou TV's previous live broadcast experience, they decided to use the 5G version of TVU One live broadcast backpack to be responsible for the signal acquisition and backhaul tasks of all mobile slots, UAV slots and fixed positions at key points.
