Synopsis "digital television: technology and standards"
this book is written as an academic textbook aimed at final year undergraduate or postgraduate engineers. the book will cover all aspects of digital video broadcasting and will be divided into three main sections: video the amount of data required to represent an analog video signal in digital form is enormous. this section will describe the signal processing tools which are used to compress this data to a more manageable amount. this will lead to a detailed description of the moving picture experts ` group (mpeg) standard mpeg-2 which is at the heart of all digital video broadcasting services. audio the volume of data when analog audio is digitized is also very large. here again signal processing techniques can be used to significantly reduce the total volume of data. the signal processing tools which achieve this will be described as will the two major standards (mpeg-2 advanced audio coding and dolby ac-3) which will be used internationally in digital video broadcasting systems. systems considered here are the systems aspects of digital video broadcasting. this included the systems layer proposed by mpeg, modulation and transmission, forward error correction, datacasting, conditional access and digital storage media command and control. the various chapters in the book will be supported by appropriate examples given in matlab. as well as problems at the end of each chapter, a number of exercises will be presented to allow students to implement the various techniques using matlab. this approach ensures that students obtain a deep understanding of the topics covered.
