TV UT; *Two Way Televi ion ABSTRACT Under an experimental license issu din 1978, KSL-TV in Salt Lake City, Utah, provided 126pages of tel text information to its viewers. In choosing thissystem, the stati n had to decide between it and a videotext system. Althoughvideotext systems permit two-way communication, usuallyover telephone UT, teletext broadcast technology is much cheaper.The Cost fo a decoder, a critical factor in the consumer's'accoptance of e ther system, is ,expected to decline for both technologies.In tel text, access cost is zero, while in videotext theinformation provi er has the option of charging users. It'is possiblethat videotext' interactive capability and superior graphics willincrease rt penetration into paying households. Although teletextand videotext provide similar mass market services, videotext has substantiallymore flexibility and speed. Since systems currently beingused in different countries are incompatible, establishing,technical standards inthe areas of data format, transmission,a d display is of key importance. Current trends and the growing home co1iptermarket favor the growth of videotext, but KSL-TV's experiment howed the value of teletextas an interim information system. -

3 Characterization of Communication Signals and Systems
63 3 Characterization of Communication Signals and Systems 3.1 Representation of Bandpass Signals and Systems Narrowband communication signals are often transmitted using some type of carrier modulation. The resulting transmit signal s(t) has passband character, i.e., the bandwidth B of its spectrum S(f) = s(t) is much smaller F{ } than the carrier frequency fc. S(f) B f f f − c c We are interested in a representation for s(t) that is independent of the carrier frequency fc. This will lead us to the so–called equiv- alent (complex) baseband representation of signals and systems. Schober: Signal Detection and Estimation 64 3.1.1 Equivalent Complex Baseband Representation of Band- pass Signals Given: Real–valued bandpass signal s(t) with spectrum S(f) = s(t) F{ } Analytic Signal s+(t) In our quest to find the equivalent baseband representation of s(t), we first suppress all negative frequencies in S(f), since S(f) = S( f) is valid. − The spectrum S+(f) of the resulting so–called analytic signal s+(t) is defined as S (f) = s (t) =2 u(f)S(f), + F{ + } where u(f) is the unit step function 0, f < 0 u(f) = 1/2, f =0 . 1, f > 0 u(f) 1 1/2 f Schober: Signal Detection and Estimation 65 The analytic signal can be expressed as 1 s+(t) = − S+(f) F 1{ } = − 2 u(f)S(f) F 1{ } 1 = − 2 u(f) − S(f) F { } ∗ F { } 1 The inverse Fourier transform of − 2 u(f) is given by F { } 1 j − 2 u(f) = δ(t) + . -
Radio Frequency Interference Analysis of Spectra from the Big Blade Antenna at the LWDA Site
Radio Frequency Interference Analysis of Spectra from the Big Blade Antenna at the LWDA Site Robert Duffin (GMU/NRL) and Paul S. Ray (NRL) March 23, 2007 Introduction The LWA analog receiver will be required to amplify and digitize RF signals over the full bandwidth of at least 20–80 MHz. This frequency range is populated with a number of strong sources of radio frequency interference (RFI), including several TV stations, HF broadcast transmissions, ham radio, and is adjacent to the FM band. Although filtering can be used to attenuate signals outside the band, the receiver must be designed with sufficient linearity and dynamic range to observe cosmic sources in the unoccupied regions between the, typically narrowband, RFI signals. A receiver of insufficient linearity will generate inter-modulation products at frequencies in the observing bands that will make it difficult or impossible to accomplish the science objectives. On the other hand, over-designing the receiver is undesirable because any excess cost or power usage will be multiplied by the 26,000 channels in the full design and may make the project unfeasible. Since the sky background is low level and broadband, the linearity requirements primarily depend on the RFI signals presented to the receiver. Consequently, a detailed study of the RFI environment at candidate LWA sites is essential. Often RFI surveys are done using antennas optimized for RFI detection such as discone antennas. However, such data are of limited usefulness for setting the receiver requirements because what is relevant is what signals are passed to the receiver when it is connected to the actual LWA antenna. -
Microwave Frequency Demodulation Using Two Coupled Optical Resonators with Modulated Refractive Index
PHYSICAL REVIEW APPLIED 15, 034056 (2021) Microwave Frequency Demodulation Using two Coupled Optical Resonators with Modulated Refractive Index Adam Mock * School of Engineering and Technology, Central Michigan University, Mount Pleasant, Michigan 48859, USA (Received 16 October 2020; revised 1 February 2021; accepted 10 February 2021; published 18 March 2021) Traditional electronic frequency demodulation of a microwave frequency voltage is challenging because it requires complicated phase-locked loops, narrowband filters with fixed passbands, or large footprint local oscillators and mixers. Herein, a different frequency demodulation concept is proposed based on refractive index modulation of two coupled microcavities excited by an optical wave. A frequency- modulated microwave frequency voltage is applied to two photonic crystal microcavities in a spatially odd configuration. The spatially odd perturbation causes coupling between the even and odd supermodes of the coupled-cavity system. It is shown theoretically and verified by finite-difference time-domain sim- ulations how careful choice of the modulation amplitude and frequency can switch the optical output from on to off. As the modulating frequency is detuned from its off value, the optical output switches from off to on. Ultimately, the optical output amplitude is proportional to the frequency deviation of the applied voltage making this device a frequency-modulated-voltage to amplitude-modulated-optical- wave converter. The optical output can be immediately detected and converted to a voltage that would result in a frequency-demodulated voltage signal. Or the optical output can be fed into a larger radio- over-fiber optical network. In this case the device presents a compact, low power, and tunable route for multiplexing frequency-modulated voltages with amplitude-modulated optical communication systems. -

The Transition to Digital Television*
DIGITAL TELEVISION 1 The Transition to Digital Television* Jérôme Addaa and Marco Ottavianib University College London; London Business School This paper studies the role of economic policy for the transition from analogue to digital television, with particular attention to the switch off of the analogue terrestrial signal. The analogue signal cannot be credibly switched off until almost all viewers have migrated to digital, due to universality of access to television. But before switch off, only part of the population can be reached with the digital signal. In addition, those who are reached need to spend more to upgrade their reception equipment than after switch off, because the capacity to increase the power of the digital signal will be made available only then. After reviewing the competitive structure and the role of government intervention in television markets, we present the early experience of a number of industrialised countries in the transition to digital television. We then formulate a micro-econometric model of digital television adoption by individual viewers. The model is calibrated to UK data and simulated to predict the impact of government policies on the take up of digital television. Policy makers can affect the speed of take up of digital television by: (i) controlling the quality of the signals and the content of public service broadcasters; (ii) intervening in the market for digital equipment with subsidies; and (iii) publicising the conditions and date of switch off of the analogue signal. We find that if the analogue terrestrial signal is switched off conditionally on aggregate adoption, strategic delays possibly arise and expectations affect the success of the switch off policy. -
