  • UHF-Band TV Transmitter for TV White Space Video Streaming Applications Hyunchol Shin1,* · Hyukjun Oh2
    JOURNAL OF ELECTROMAGNETIC ENGINEERING AND SCIENCE, VOL. 19, NO. 4, 227~233, OCT. 2019 https://doi.org/10.26866/jees.2019.19.4.227 ISSN 2671-7263 (Online) ∙ ISSN 2671-7255 (Print) UHF-Band TV Transmitter for TV White Space Video Streaming Applications Hyunchol Shin1,* · Hyukjun Oh2 Abstract This paper presents a television (TV) transmitter for wireless video streaming applications in TV white space band. The TV transmitter is composed of a digital TV (DTV) signal generator and a UHF-band RF transmitter. Compared to a conventional high-IF heterodyne structure, the RF transmitter employs a zero-IF quadrature direct up-conversion architecture to minimize hardware overhead and com- plexity. The RF transmitter features I/Q mismatch compensation circuitry using 12-bit digital-to-analog converters to significantly im- prove LO and image suppressions. The DTV signal generator produces an 8-vestigial sideband (VSB) modulated digital baseband signal fully compliant with the Advanced Television System Committee (ATSC) DTV signal specifications. By employing the proposed TV transmitter and a commercial TV receiver, over-the-air, real-time, high-definition video streaming has been successfully demonstrated across all UHF-band TV channels between 14 and 69. This work shows that a portable hand-held TV transmitter can be a useful TV- band device for wireless video streaming application in TV white space.

  • Frequency Standard Distribution Via a Microwave Communication System
    Frequency standard distribution via a microwave communication system A. Emersic (RTV Slovenija) In order to implement a precision frequency offset system in a television transmitter network, each radio-frequency carrier must be very stable and accurate.

  • Measurements on Radio and TV Transmitters
    Application Note Measurements on radio and TV transmitters Determining the field exposure level in the vicinity of transmitter stations The purpose of radio and television transmitter stations is to provide full coverage for television, radio, and multimedia broadcasting services. Long ranges are achieved through high-power transmissions, but the resulting high field strengths affect the environment. The move from analog to digital broadcasting methods does not result in any real change in this situation, although a tendency to lower field strengths has been reported [1]. This Application Note describes an example of the measurement of field emissions from radio and TV transmitters and their evaluation from the viewpoint of immission control and human safety. It looks particularly at the differences between analog and digital TV. While the overall emission levels can be determined and evaluated using a wideband measuring set, the individual contributions made by analog and digital transmitters can only be captured separately using a frequency-selective device. For this reason, the Selective Radiation Meter SRM-3006 was used to make the measurements.

At the request of the National Association of Broadcasters, the undersigned have prepared this engineering statement for consideration by the Commission in connection with its inquiry into available methods for measuring and predicting the ability of households to receive over-the-air digital television signals. The credentials and experience of the undersigned are set forth in the attached as Exhibit A. As detailed there, we have, among other things, conducted thousands of digital signal intensity tests in a variety oflocations around the United States; helped to design and test state-of-the-art digital receivers; and developed industry-standard computer-based analysis applications and specialized software concerning RF propagation. We attempt in this Engineering Statement to provide the Commission with the benefit of this experience. We begin with a short discussion of pertinent background facts, before addressing the specific issues raised by the Commission. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Analog Television and the Beginnings of the Digital Era 2. Black and white analog television, commonly referred to by reference to its origins with the National Television Systems Committee (NTSC), was adopted as the standard in the United States in 1941. The analog color TV system was adopted in December 1953. 1 3. In 1987,58 broadcast organizations petitioned the Commission to develop high definition television (HDTV) standards in the United States to remain competitive with new, emerging technologies.

  • TV TRANSMITTER and RECEIVER Block Diagram of Monochrome TV
    TOPIC : TV TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER Block diagram of monochrome TV transmitter OR An oversimplified block diagram of a monochrome television transmitter is shown in Fig. The luminance signal from the camera is amplified and synchronizing pulses added before feeding it to the modulating amplifier. Synchronizing pulses are transmitted to keep the camera and the picture tube beams in step. The allotted picture carrier frequency is generated by a crystal controlled oscillator. The continuous wave (CW) sine wave output is given large amplification before feeding to the power amplifier where its amplitude is made to vary (AM) in accordance with the modulating signal received from the modulating amplifier. The modulated output is combined (see Fig.) with the frequency modulated (FM) sound signal in the combining network and then fed to the transmitting antenna for radiation Block diagram of colour TV transmitter Explanation:- A colour TV transmitter consists of following three main sections. 1. Production of Luminance (Y) and Chrominance (U and V) signals 2. encoder 3. Video and Audio modulators and transmitting antenna Production of Luminance (Y) and Chrominance (U and V) signals: Colour camera tube produces R, G and B voltages pertaining to the intensity of red, green and blue colours respectively in pixels. The luminance signal Y is obtained by a resistive matrix, using grassman's law. Y=0.3R+0.59G+0.11B. For colour section Y is inverted colours R&B obtained from the colour camera tubes are added to it to get (R-Y) and (B-Y) colour difference signal. These signals are weighted by two resistive matrix network which gives U & V signals as U=0.493 (B-Y) & V=0.877(R-Y) Encoder: Phase Alternating Line (PAL) switch which operates electronically at 7812.5Hz with the help of bistable multivibrator and feeds the subcarrier to balanced modulator with phase difference of +90 degree on one line and -90 degree on the next line.
