Digital Television Technology and Standards

Аннотация

This book describes the technology and standards behind digital television. It introduces the basic techniques used in video coding, audio coding, and systems, which provide for the multiplexing of these services and other ancillary data into a single bit stream. The description of standards covers the north-American Advanced Television System Committee (ATSC) and the European Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB). Aspects relating to these standards are described independently, allowing the reader to cover only those parts relevant to one system if desired.
