Digital video and audio broadcasting technology: a practical engineering guide

‘Digital Video and Audio Broadcasting Technology – A Practical Engineering Guide’ deals with all the most important digital television, sound radio and multimedia standards such as MPEG, DVB, DVD, DAB, ATSC, T-DMB, DMB-T, DRM and ISDB-T. The book provides an in-depth look at these subjects in terms of practical experience. In addition it contains chapters on the basics of technologies such as analog television, digital modulation, COFDM or mathematical transformations between time and frequency domains. The attention in the respective field under discussion is focussed on aspects of measuring techniques and of measuring practice, in each case consolidating the knowledge imparted with numerouspractical examples. This book is directed primarily at the specialist workingin the field, on transmitters and transmission equipment, network planning, studio technology, playout centers and multiplex center technology and in the development departments for entertainment electronics or TV test engineering. Application-oriented book on one of the hottest topics in telecommunications. Special emphasis is on measurement techniques. Written by an industrial expert with years of experience in training engineers in this technology INDICE: From the contents Introduction.- Analog Television.- The MPEG DataStream.- Digital Video Signal According to ITU-BT.R.601 (CCIR 601).- High Definition Television – HDTV.- Transforms to and from the Frequency Domain.- MPEG-2 Video Coding.- Compression of Audio Signals to MPEG and Dolby Digital.- Teletext, Subtitles and VPS for DVB.- A Comparison of Digital Video Standards.- Measurements on the MPEG-2 Transport Stream.- Picture Quality Analysis of Digital TV Signals.- Basics Principles of Digital Modulation.- Transmitting DigitalTelevision Signals by Satellite – DVB-S/S2.- DVB-S Measuring Technology.- Broadband Cable Transmission According to DVB-C.- Broadband Cable Transmission According to ITU-T J83B.- Measuring Digital TV Signals in the Broadcast Cable.- Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Mulitplex.- Terrestrial Transmission of Digital Television Signals.- Measuring DBV-T Signals.- DVB – Digital Video Broadcasting for Handhelds.- Digital Terrestrial TV to North American ATSC Standard.
