Loudspeaker FM and AM Distortion an 10
Loudspeaker FM and AM Distortion AN 10 Application Note to the KLIPPEL R&D SYSTEM The amplitude modulation of a high frequency tone f1 (voice tone) and a low frequency tone f2 (bass tone) is measured by using the 3D Distortion Measurement module (DIS) of the KLIPPEL R&D SYSTEM. The maximal variation of the envelope of the voice tone f1 is represented by the top and bottom value referred to the averaged envelope. The amplitude modulation distortion (AMD) is the ratio between the rms value of the variation referred to the averaged value and is comparable to the modulation distortion Ld2 and Ld3 of the IEC standard 60268 provided that the loudspeaker generates pure amplitude modulation of second- or third-order. The measurement of amplitude modulation distortion (AMD) allows assessment of the effects of Bl(x) and Le(x) nonlinearity and radiation distortion due to pure amplitude modulation without Doppler effect.

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) + . -

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. With over 29 years of teaching and research experience, he has published eight technical books and more than 200 scientific papers. He is Founder and President of the Institute for Advanced Studies in Communications (Iecom) and has consulted for several companies and R&D agencies. -
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. -
Research on the Safe Broadcasting of Television Program
MATEC Web of Conferences 63, 04002 (2016) DOI: 10.1051/matecconf/20166304002 MMME 2016 Research on the Safe Broadcasting of Television Program Jin Bao SONG1,a, Jin Hong SONG2 and Jian Ping CHAI1 1Information Engineering School, Communication University of China, Beijing, China 2Shandong Gold Mining Jiaojia Gold Mine (Laizhou) co.,LTD Abstract. The existing way of broadcasting and television monitoring has a lot of problems in China. On the basis of the signal technical indicators monitoring in the present broadcasting and television monitoring system, this paper further extends the function of the monitoring network in order to broaden the services of monitoring business and improve the effect and efficiency of monitoring work. The problem of identifying video content and channel in television and related electronic media is conquered at a low cost implementation way and the flexible technology mechanism. The coverage for video content and identification of the channel is expanded. The informative broadcast entries are generated after a series of video processing. The value of the numerous broadcast data is deeply excavated by using big data processing in order to realize a comprehensive, objective and accurate information monitoring for the safe broadcasting of television program. 1 Introduction paper is the development of cheap monitoring hardware devices which can be widely deployed to the village, so The existing way of broadcasting and television the actual situation of the user terminal broadcasting can monitoring has a lot of problems in China. Firstly, the be monitored by the administration of radio, film and existing way of monitoring is the front-end monitoring television.
