  • Why-Send-HD-Over-Coax.Pdf
    1 Why Send HD Over Coax? HD Video Distribution Is In Demand Prices for HDTVs are plummeting, while HD sources are multiplying. To keep up with technology, most businesses are upgrading to HD; in fact, many franchisees for restaurants and bars are required by corporate brand standards to upgrade to HD. If they don’t, their businesses risk being marginalized as outdated or lacking innovation, and customers will head down the block for dinner or drinks instead. What’s more, the explosive growth of digital signage has driven demand for HD video distribution systems. Bars and restaurants are all looking for effi cient ways to upgrade to HD, making HD video distribution a rapid growth opportunity for integrators. Existing Solutions Existing HD video distribution solutions are often labor intensive, requiring new cabling to each display. To share an HD source with 3 HDTVs in remote locations, you might pull new component cables to each HDTV, or CAT5 cabling (with baluns to provide the appropriate connection at each end), or perhaps HDMI cabling. Each represents substantial installation effort, and the expense of a hub of some sort. A New (Old) Way In contrast, distributing HD over coaxial cabling often allows the use of existing cabling, substantially reducing labor. This is accomplished using RF modulation of the source - a technique that’s been around for some time, but has now made the leap to HD. ZeeVee - White Paper - Why Send HD Over Coax 2 HD Encoder/ RF Modulator RF Modulator Basics An RF modulator turns an AV source into a TV channel, which is then broadcast over coaxial cabling within a building.

The transmitter architecture replaces high dynamic range analog circuits with high speed digital circuits and a passive LC bandpass filter, saving power and area compared to conventional IQ modulators for wideband systems. A prototype transmitter IC built in 0.13 pm CMOS demonstrates a data rate of 1.2 Gb/s using OFDM modulation in a bandwidth of 200 MHz centered at 5.25 GHz. The modulator consumes 187 mW and occupies a die area of 0.72 mm2 .

Printed by LiU-Tryck, Linköping, Sweden 2017 To my mother, father, and uncle (mamoo), Abstract The market for wireless portable devices has grown significantly over the recent years. Wireless devices with ever-increased functionality require high rate data transmission and reduced costs. High data rate is achieved through communi- cation standards such as LTE and WLAN, which generate signals with high peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR), hence requiring a power amplifier (PA) that can handle a large dynamic range signal. To keep the costs low, modern CMOS processes allow the integration of the digital, analog and radio functions on to a single chip. However, the design of PAs with large dynamic range and high efficiency is challenging due to the low voltage headroom. To prolong the battery life, the PAs have to be power-efficient as they consume a sizable percentage of the total power. For LTE and WLAN, traditional transmitters operate the PA at back-off power, below their peak efficiency, whereas pulse-width modulation (PWM) transmitters use the PA at their peak power, resulting in a higher efficiency.

  • Conditioning A/V Signals for RF Modulation
    Maxim > Design Support > Technical Documents > Application Notes > Video Circuits > APP 3551 Keywords: condition A/V signals, RF modulation, max4382, max4383 APPLICATION NOTE 3551 Conditioning A/V Signals for RF Modulation Jun 23, 2005 Abstract: Even as display devices move toward digital video, they retain the legacy of an RF-modulated analog TV output. That output is specified in the US by the National Television Standards Committee (NTSC), and utilized in security applications and in the Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) Project as specified by the European TV standard phase alternation line (PAL). All modulators, whether simple analog types or single-chip synthesizers, require properly conditioned audio and video input signals. Despite the need for an integrated circuit, the ubiquitous interface between the modulator and audio/video (A/V) signals has not yet been reduced to an IC. The main reasons for that deficiency are the difficulty of such a design, the variations required for different standards, and the variable levels required by the modulator itself. The alternative to an IC interface is a discrete design. The signal-conditioning requirements include lowpass and notch filtering of the video, group-delay compensation for the video, preemphasis for the audio, and (to adjust the modulation level) level controls for both audio and video. Because many cable and satellite receivers, VCRs, DVDs, and TVs do not fully comply with these signal-conditioning requirements, the modulated signals of channels 3 and 4 have poorer quality than that of the baseband composite (Cvbs). The following discussion explains the interface requirements and how to meet them using standard op amps and discrete components.
