Methods and systems are provided for local mobile content distribution. A satellite signal may be received and processed, to recover data carried in the satellite signal. A broadcast signal may then be generated and transmitted within a local coverage area. The broadcast signal carries at least a portion of the recovered data, and is configured in accordance with a particular wireless protocol, with the portion of recovered data being processed for transmission via the broadcast signal. The recovered data or portion thereof carried in the broadcast signal may be determined based on information provided by a satellite subscriber and/or demand for particular data in the local coverage area. Information required to facilitate the generating and/or transmission of the broadcast signal may be obtaining from central server associated with one or more service providers.

A mobile viewing method includes accessing location information indicative of a current location of a mobile device associated with a home market. A current market corresponding to the current location of the mobile device is identified. If the current market differs from the home market, the mobile device is granted access to a retransmission of at least one local channel of the current market. The location information may include GPS information indicative of GPS coordinates of the mobile device. The mobile device may include a mobile viewing application that displays a channel guide indicating local channels available in the current market and national channels. The mobile viewing application may include a summary of the current market and the summary may include weather, news headline, and local advertisement information.

A method and system for specifying content of interest using a digital radio broadcast receiver is described. A digital radio broadcast signal includes an alternate way of distributing content-rich Advertisements over the digital radio broadcast networks and rebroadcast these Advertisements over technologies like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and the like to smart devices. A digital out-of-home network system will act as a bridge to relay the received Advertisements to smart devices.
