    This page intentionally left blank Digital Television Systems Digital television is a multibillion-dollar industry with commercial systems now being deployed worldwide. In this concise yet detailed guide, you will learn about the standards that apply to fixed-line and mobile digital television, as well as the underlying principles involved, such as signal analysis, modulation techniques, and source and channel coding. The digital television standards, including the MPEG family, ATSC, DVB, ISDTV, DTMB, and ISDB, are presented toaid understanding ofnew systems in the market and reveal the variations between different systems used throughout the world. Discussions of source and channel coding then provide the essential knowledge needed for designing reliable new systems.Throughout the book the theory is supported by over 200 figures and tables, whilst an extensive glossary defines practical terminology.Additional background features, including Fourier analysis, probability and stochastic processes, tables of Fourier and Hilbert transforms, and radiofrequency tables, are presented in the book’s useful appendices. This is an ideal reference for practitioners in the field of digital television. It will alsoappeal tograduate students and researchers in electrical engineering and computer science, and can be used as a textbook for graduate courses on digital television systems. Marcelo S. Alencar is Chair Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Federal University of Campina Grande, Brazil.

  • Lecture 11 : Discrete Cosine Transform Moving Into the Frequency Domain
    Lecture 11 : Discrete Cosine Transform Moving into the Frequency Domain Frequency domains can be obtained through the transformation from one (time or spatial) domain to the other (frequency) via Fourier Transform (FT) (see Lecture 3) — MPEG Audio. Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) (new ) — Heart of JPEG and MPEG Video, MPEG Audio. Note : We mention some image (and video) examples in this section with DCT (in particular) but also the FT is commonly applied to filter multimedia data. External Link: MIT OCW 8.03 Lecture 11 Fourier Analysis Video Recap: Fourier Transform The tool which converts a spatial (real space) description of audio/image data into one in terms of its frequency components is called the Fourier transform. The new version is usually referred to as the Fourier space description of the data. We then essentially process the data: E.g . for filtering basically this means attenuating or setting certain frequencies to zero We then need to convert data back to real audio/imagery to use in our applications. The corresponding inverse transformation which turns a Fourier space description back into a real space one is called the inverse Fourier transform. What do Frequencies Mean in an Image? Large values at high frequency components mean the data is changing rapidly on a short distance scale. E.g .: a page of small font text, brick wall, vegetation. Large low frequency components then the large scale features of the picture are more important. E.g . a single fairly simple object which occupies most of the image. The Road to Compression How do we achieve compression? Low pass filter — ignore high frequency noise components Only store lower frequency components High pass filter — spot gradual changes If changes are too low/slow — eye does not respond so ignore? Low Pass Image Compression Example MATLAB demo, dctdemo.m, (uses DCT) to Load an image Low pass filter in frequency (DCT) space Tune compression via a single slider value n to select coefficients Inverse DCT, subtract input and filtered image to see compression artefacts.

  • The 1-Bit Instrument: the Fundamentals of 1-Bit Synthesis
    BLAKE TROISE The 1-Bit Instrument The Fundamentals of 1-Bit Synthesis, Their Implementational Implications, and Instrumental Possibilities ABSTRACT The 1-bit sonic environment (perhaps most famously musically employed on the ZX Spectrum) is defined by extreme limitation. Yet, belying these restrictions, there is a surprisingly expressive instrumental versatility. This article explores the theory behind the primary, idiosyncratically 1-bit techniques available to the composer-programmer, those that are essential when designing “instruments” in 1-bit environments. These techniques include pulse width modulation for timbral manipulation and means of generating virtual polyph- ony in software, such as the pin pulse and pulse interleaving techniques. These methodologies are considered in respect to their compositional implications and instrumental applications. KEYWORDS chiptune, 1-bit, one-bit, ZX Spectrum, pulse pin method, pulse interleaving, timbre, polyphony, history 2020 18 May on guest by http://online.ucpress.edu/jsmg/article-pdf/1/1/44/378624/jsmg_1_1_44.pdf from Downloaded INTRODUCTION As unquestionably evident from the chipmusic scene, it is an understatement to say that there is a lot one can do with simple square waves. One-bit music, generally considered a subdivision of chipmusic,1 takes this one step further: it is the music of a single square wave. The only operation possible in a -bit environment is the variation of amplitude over time, where amplitude is quantized to two states: high or low, on or off. As such, it may seem in- tuitively impossible to achieve traditionally simple musical operations such as polyphony and dynamic control within a -bit environment. Despite these restrictions, the unique tech- niques and auditory tricks of contemporary -bit practice exploit the limits of human per- ception.

  • Reception Performance Improvement of AM/FM Tuner by Digital Signal Processing Technology
    Reception performance improvement of AM/FM tuner by digital signal processing technology Akira Hatakeyama Osamu Keishima Kiyotaka Nakagawa Yoshiaki Inoue Takehiro Sakai Hirokazu Matsunaga Abstract With developments in digital technology, CDs, MDs, DVDs, HDDs and digital media have become the mainstream of car AV products. In terms of broadcasting media, various types of digital broadcasting have begun in countries all over the world. Thus, there is a demand for smaller and thinner products, in order to enhance radio performance and to achieve consolidation with the above-mentioned digital media in limited space. Due to these circumstances, we are attaining such performance enhancement through digital signal processing for AM/FM IF and beyond, and both tuner miniaturization and lighter products have been realized. The digital signal processing tuner which we will introduce was developed with Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. for the 2005 line model. In this paper, we explain regarding the function outline, characteristics, and main tech- nology involved. 22 Reception performance improvement of AM/FM tuner by digital signal processing technology Introduction1.
