Digital Television Systems
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.

All this changed in 1948 with the publication of “A Mathematical Theory of Communication”—Shannon’s landmark work Shannon’s Sampling theorem A continuous signal xt( ) with frequencies no higher than fmax can be reconstructed exactly from its samples xn[ ]= xn [Ts ], if the samples are taken at a rate ffs ³ 2,max where fTss= 1 This simple theorem is one of the theoretical Pillars of digital communications, control and signal processing Shannon’s Sampling theorem, • States that reconstruction from the samples is possible, but it doesn’t specify any algorithm for reconstruction • It gives a minimum sampling rate that is dependent only on the frequency content of the continuous signal x(t) • The minimum sampling rate of 2fmax is called the “Nyquist rate” Example1: Sampling theorem-Nyquist rate x( t )= 2cos(20p t ), find the Nyquist frequency ? xt( )= 2cos(2p (10) t ) The only frequency in the continuous- time signal is 10 Hz \ fHzmax =10 Nyquist sampling rate Sampling rate, ffsnyq ==2max 20 Hz Continuous-time sinusoid of frequency 10Hz Fig:7.2 Sampled at Nyquist rate, so, the theorem states that 2 samples are enough per period. -

This output signal is generated from the digital signal supplied by the DPHarp sensor using a 15BitD/A signal converter with 0.004% resolution. The transmitters are designed to drive output slightly greater than the 4 to 20 mA “Base” signal.

Acquiring an Analog Signal: Bandwidth, Nyquist Sampling Theorem, and Aliasing
Acquiring an Analog Signal: Bandwidth, Nyquist Sampling Theorem, and Aliasing Overview Learn about acquiring an analog signal, including topics such as bandwidth, amplitude error, rise time, sample rate, the Nyquist Sampling Theorem, aliasing, and resolution.

Scientists and engineers often use a digitizer to capture analog data in the real world and convert it into digital signals for analysis. A digitizer is any device used to convert analog signals into digital signals. One of the most common digitizers is a cell phone, which converts a voice, an analog signal, into a digital signal to send to another phone. However, in test and measurement applications, a digitizer most often refers to an oscilloscope or a digital multimeter (DMM). This article focuses on oscilloscopes, but most topics are also applicable to other digitizers. Regardless of the type, the digitizer is vital for the system to accurately reconstruct a waveform. To ensure you select the correct oscilloscope for your application, consider the bandwidth, sampling rate, and resolution of the oscilloscope. Bandwidth The front end of an oscilloscope consists of two components: an analog input path and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The analog input path attenuates, amplifies, filters, and/or couples the signal to optimize it in preparation for digitization by the ADC. -

High performance oscilloscopes are also widely used in university research labs to accurately characterize high-speed digital devices and systems, as well as to perform high energy physics experiments such as pulsed laser testing. In addition, general-purpose oscilloscopes are used extensively by Electrical Engineering students in their various EE analog and digital circuits lab courses. The two key banner specifications that affect an oscilloscope’s signal integrity measurement accuracy are bandwidth and sample rate. -
Enhancing ADC Resolution by Oversampling
AVR121: Enhancing ADC resolution by oversampling 8-bit Features Microcontrollers • Increasing the resolution by oversampling • Averaging and decimation • Noise reduction by averaging samples Application Note 1 Introduction Atmel’s AVR controller offers an Analog to Digital Converter with 10-bit resolution. In most cases 10-bit resolution is sufficient, but in some cases higher accuracy is desired. Special signal processing techniques can be used to improve the resolution of the measurement. By using a method called ‘Oversampling and Decimation’ higher resolution might be achieved, without using an external ADC. This Application Note explains the method, and which conditions need to be fulfilled to make this method work properly. Figure 1-1. Enhancing the resolution. A/D A/D A/D 10-bit 11-bit 12-bit t t t Rev. 8003A-AVR-09/05 2 Theory of operation Before reading the rest of this Application Note, the reader is encouraged to read Application Note AVR120 - ‘Calibration of the ADC’, and the ADC section in the AVR datasheet. The following examples and numbers are calculated for Single Ended Input in a Free Running Mode. ADC Noise Reduction Mode is not used. This method is also valid in the other modes, though the numbers in the following examples will be different. The ADCs reference voltage and the ADCs resolution define the ADC step size. The ADC’s reference voltage, VREF, may be selected to AVCC, an internal 2.56V / 1.1V reference, or a reference voltage at the AREF pin. A lower VREF provides a higher voltage precision but minimizes the dynamic range of the input signal. -

Digital Television: Has the Revolution Stalled?
iBRIEF / Media & Communications Cite as 2001 Duke L. & Tech. Rev. 0014 3/26/2001 April 26, 2001 DIGITAL TELEVISION: HAS THE REVOLUTION STALLED? When digital television technology first hit the scene it garnered great excitement, with its promise of movie theater picture and sound on a fraction of the bandwidth of analog. A plan was implemented to transition from the current analog broadcasting system to a digital system effective December 23, 2006. As we reach the half point of this plan, the furor begins to die as the realities of the difficult change sink in. The History of Digital Television ¶1 The technological possibilities of digital television are immense.1 It could provide the broadcast of theater quality sound and picture via cable, antenna or satellite; multicasting which enables the transmission of multiple programs within one digital signal; and signals for data communications that could potentially bring to the TV the capabilities of web pages and interactive compact discs.2 ¶2 The motivation behind the development of digital television technologies can be traced back to the history of analog broadcasting. As television became a viable medium in the United States at the start of the Second World War, the establishment of technical standards in transmission and reception equipment was of vital importance. In 1940, the National Television Systems Committee (NTSC) met to determine guidelines for the transmission and reception of television signals. With the US leading the charge into early broadcasting in the late 1940s, the technology available at the time became entrenched and remains a part of our lives today, with the familiar 525-line low-resolution screens that bring us the evening news. -

MULTIRATE SIGNAL PROCESSING Multirate Signal Processing
MULTIRATE SIGNAL PROCESSING Multirate Signal Processing • Definition: Signal processing which uses more than one sampling rate to perform operations • Upsampling increases the sampling rate • Downsampling reduces the sampling rate • Reference: Digital Signal Processing, DeFatta, Lucas, and Hodgkiss B. Baas, EEC 281 431 Multirate Signal Processing • Advantages of lower sample rates –May require less processing –Likely to reduce power dissipation, P = CV2 f, where f is frequently directly proportional to the sample rate –Likely to require less storage • Advantages of higher sample rates –May simplify computation –May simplify surrounding analog and RF circuitry • Remember that information up to a frequency f requires a sampling rate of at least 2f. This is the Nyquist sampling rate. –Or we can equivalently say the Nyquist sampling rate is ½ the sampling frequency, fs B. Baas, EEC 281 432 Upsampling Upsampling or Interpolation •For an upsampling by a factor of I, add I‐1 zeros between samples in the original sequence •An upsampling by a factor I is commonly written I For example, upsampling by two: 2 • Obviously the number of samples will approximately double after 2 •Note that if the sampling frequency doubles after an upsampling by two, that t the original sample sequence will occur at the same points in time t B. Baas, EEC 281 434 Original Signal Spectrum •Example signal with most energy near DC •Notice 5 spectral “bumps” between large signal “bumps” B. Baas, EEC 281 π 2π435 Upsampled Signal (Time) •One zero is inserted between the original samples for 2x upsampling B. Baas, EEC 281 436 Upsampled Signal Spectrum (Frequency) • Spectrum of 2x upsampled signal •Notice the location of the (now somewhat compressed) five “bumps” on each side of π B.
