  • Digital Television: an Overview

    Digital Television: an Overview

    Order Code RL31260 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Digital Television: An Overview Updated June 22, 2005 Lennard G. Kruger Specialist in Science and Technology Resources, Science, and Industry Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress Digital Television: An Overview Summary Digital television (DTV) is a new television service representing the most significant development in television technology since the advent of color television in the 1950s. DTV can provide sharper pictures, a wider screen, CD-quality sound, better color rendition, and other new services currently being developed. The nationwide deployment of digital television is a complex and multifaceted enterprise. A successful deployment requires: the development by content providers of compelling digital programming; the delivery of digital signals to consumers by broadcast television stations, as well as cable and satellite television systems; and the widespread purchase and adoption by consumers of digital television equipment. The Telecommunications Act of 1996 (P.L. 104-104) provided that initial eligibility for any DTV licenses issued by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) should be limited to existing broadcasters. Because DTV signals cannot be received through the existing analog television broadcasting system, the FCC decided to phase in DTV over a period of years, so that consumers would not have to immediately purchase new digital television sets or converters. Thus, broadcasters were given new spectrum for digital signals, while retaining their existing spectrum for analog transmission so that they can simultaneously transmit analog and digital signals to their broadcasting market areas. Congress and the FCC set a target date of December 31, 2006 for broadcasters to cease broadcasting their analog signals and return their existing analog television spectrum to be auctioned for commercial services (such as broadband) or used for public safety communications.

  • Introduction to Broadcast Media

    Introduction to Broadcast Media

    Introduction to Broadcast Media Tutorial Cutting to the chase: Broadcast media is radio and television. Even amidst the pop culture dominance of the internet, broadcast media still commands the largest share of the advertising pie nationwide. Put the audio and visual media to work for you as your company earns larger market share, stronger branding, and increased sales. If you are looking for cost-efficient lead generation, you need to be looking at radio and television advertising. Not only are radio and television the main media for advertising today, they are continually developing new ways to reach their audience. The SyFy cable network launched a show (“Defiance”) that combines interactions on a video game with the plot of a series show. Radio stations are supplementing on-air campaigns with digital media to provide on-air and on-screen promotions to those who stream the station through their computer. Multiple studies have shown that combining radio and television can help advertisers reach audiences not achievable with only one medium or the other. Broadcast Media Broadcast television Cable television On-demand television TV/web integration Local, network, and national radio On-air endorsements Long-form programming Multi-language programming The Power of Radio Radio reaches more Americans than any other advertising media. As an example, let’s look at Los Angeles, CA. It is the #1 radio revenue market in the world and generates more than $1 billion dollars in sales each year. In that market alone, more than 9 million people listen to radio each week. People are loyal to radio and love listening to their favorite DJ or talk show host.

Handbook on Digital Terrestrial Television Broadcasting Networks and Systems Implementation iii Editors’ Foreword In 2002, ITU published its first Handbook on digital terrestrial television under the title Digital terrestrial television broadcasting in the VHF/UHF bands1 as guidance to engineers responsible for the implementation of digital terrestrial television broadcasting (DTTB). In this Handbook, new digital broadcasting technologies were explained in detail, for example a splendid description of the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coding that is the basis of all past and present TV compression systems, as well as a very instructive chapter on signal power summation. Most of that content are not repeated in this new Handbook on Digital Terrestrial Television Broadcasting Networks and Systems Implementation.

    GLOSSARY 319 GLOSSARY 180-degree rule (or crossing the line): Keeping camera angles on one side of an imaginary line running through the set. Crossing the line can cause confusing discontinuity. 4:4:2 (and 4:4:4): Chroma sampling rates. 4:4:4 means that the color and luminance components of the picture are sampled at the same rate, as is performed in cinematic post-production. With 4:2:2, the two chroma components are sampled at half the rate of the luminance component; this reduces bandwidth by one-third with little or no visible difference. 4K: High-definition formats that can process screen resolu- tions up to 4,096 pixels. Ultra-high definition (UHD) 4K is 3,840 wide, while DCI 4K is 4,096. It has four times as many pixels as current 1080p HDTV. 8K: High-definition format capable of resolutions up to 7,680 pix- els wide. Called Super Hi-Vision in Japan, it has 16 times as many pixels as current 1080p HDTV. Adaptive bit rate streaming: Encoding a single video at multiple bit rates. The process detects the bandwidth and CPU capac- ity of the viewer’s computer in real time and adjusts the bit rate accordingly. After Effects: An Adobe software application for motion graphics and compositing. AFTRA: American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. Alpha compositing: The process of combining an image with a background to create the appearance of partial transparency. An alpha channel is used extensively when combining computer- rendered image elements with live footage. Analog: Standard audio/video recording.
