Definition of Brussels Satellite Convention
The Brussels Satellite Convention is a treaty that was established in 1974 to standardize the regulation of broadcasting and cable retransmission using satellites. It is also known as the Convention Relating to the Distribution of Program-Carrying Signals Transmitted by Satellite.
The Convention focuses on the regulation of the signal rather than copyright or neighboring rights. This means that what is transmitted is protected even if the content is not protected by any intellectual-property right.
For example, if a television program is transmitted via satellite, the signal is protected by the Brussels Satellite Convention even if the content of the program is not protected by copyright or any other intellectual-property right.
The United States ratified the Brussels Satellite Convention in 1984.
