Download or read book Digital Television written by Hervé Benoit and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2002 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing for readers with a background in electronics, some knowledge of analog television, and a basic digital background, Benoit (Philips Semiconductors, France) intends this book as a summary and starting point rather than a handbook for experts. He describes the complex problems that had to be solved in order to define reliable standards for broadcasting digital pictures, and he explains the solutions chosen for the European digital video broadcasting (DVB) system based on the international MPEG-2 compression standard. The book ends with a description of a digital integrated receiver decoder, or set-top box, and a discussion of future prospects. Adapted and translated by the author from a 1996 work published in French (Paris: Dunod). The second edition adds a chapter on software interoperability.

Download or read book Digital Terrestrial Television in Europe written by Allan Brown and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-09-22 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital technology for the production, transmission, and reception of television is expected to replace analogue transmission throughout the world. The timetable for this transition is uncertain and different projections have been made for virtually every country in the world. This book gives the exhaustive details of the issues of this changeover in Europe and elsewhere. The details are placed within the context of the massive changes, which the television industry has been subjected to over the past 25 years. The rollout of digital terrestrial television (DTTV) in Europe is a significant issue for every country included in this survey. It is of such importance because DTTV is the centerpiece of many governments' policies toward making Europe the world leader in new information and communication technologies. These same governments are all wrestling with the issues of how to use the technology in ways that create both commercial and non-commercial value. European perspectives on the social, cultural, and political nature of broadcasting vary significantly from those in other parts of the world and require that the introduction of DTTV should be handled differently to its introduction elsewhere. There are enormous technical, political, and economic aspects to be considered and these vary from country to country in Europe. The two editors bring a perspective to this study as media economists who come to the European scene from other parts of the world. The book covers DTTV in depth, and it also includes discussions of cable, satellite, broadband, and Internet technology for comparison.

Download or read book Digital Terrestrial Television Broadcasting written by Paul Dambacher and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decades, traditional television broadcasting has been an autonomous field which was largely independent of the world of telecommunications and computers. The analog television standards PAL, SECAM and NTSC have remained almost untouched with regard to their picture information. Whatever development took place was essentially in support of programming and was based on the existence of a certain redundancy in the representation of the signal in the time and fre quency domain. In the 70S, for example, the teletext system was introduced throughout Europe. A further supplementary digital service in television, intro duced in the early 80S, was the Video Programme System (VPS) which utilizes part of the TV data line and ensures that programmes can be recorded with the correct timing on video recorders even when the programmes are delayed. There is no doubt that as far as the transmission from the studio to the view er is concerned, the future belongs to digital video broadcasting (DVB) which is about to be implemented in the satellite, cable and terrestrial radio transmission media. The European DVB Project finalized its specification for channel coding and modulation for the digital broadband transmission channels at the begin ning of 1996.

Download or read book Digital Television written by Lennard G. Kruger and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital television (DTV) is a new television service representing the most significant development in television technology since the advent of color television in the 1950s. DTV can provide sharper pictures, a wider screen, CD-quality sound, better color rendition, and other new services currently being developed. A successful deployment of DTV requires: the development by content providers of compelling digital programming; the delivery of digital signals to consumers by broadcast television stations, as well as cable and satellite television systems; and the widespread purchase and adoption by consumers of digital television equipment. A key issue in the Congressional debate over the digital transition has been addressing the millions of American over-the-air households whose existing analog televisions will require converter boxes in order to receive digital signals when the analog signal is turned off.
