+Central frequency of the channel.
+
+For ISDB-T the channels are usally transmitted with an offset of 143kHz. E.g. a
+valid frequncy could be 474143 kHz. The stepping is bound to the bandwidth of
+the channel which is 6MHz.
+
+As in ISDB-Tsb the channel consists of only one or three segments the
+frequency step is 428kHz, 3*428 respectively. As for ISDB-T the
+central frequency of the channel is expected.

+b) DTV_BANDWIDTH_HZ
+
+Help the front-end, for example, to set up base-band-filters correctly.
Possible values:
For ISDB-T it should be always 6000000Hz (6MHz)
For ISDB-Tsb it can vary depending on the number of connected segments
