Digital Television: Technology and Standards (Hardcover)

The only single, comprehensive textbook on all aspects of digital television

The next few years will see a major revolution in the technology used to deliver television services as the world moves from analog to digital television. Presently, all existing textbooks dealing with analog television standards (NTSC and PAL) are becoming obsolete as the prevalence of digital technology continues to become more widespread. Now, Digital Television: Technology and Standards fills the need for a single, authoritative textbook that covers all aspects of digital television technology.

Divided into three main sections, Digital Television explores:
*

Video: MPEG-2, which is at the heart of all digital video broadcasting services
*

Audio: MPEG-2 Advanced Audio Coding and Dolby AC-3, which will be used internationally in digital video broadcasting systems
*

Systems: MPEG, modulation transmission, forward error correction, datacasting, conditional access, and digital storage media command and control

Complete with tables, illustrations, and figures, this valuable textbook includes problems and laboratories at the end of each chapter and also offers a number of exercises that allow students to implement the various techniques discussed using MATLAB. The authors' coverage of implementation and theory makes this a practical reference for professionals, as well as an indispensable textbook for advanced undergraduates and graduate-level students in electrical engineering and computer science programs.

這是一本關於數位電視各個方面的唯一綜合教科書。

在未來幾年，隨著世界從類比電視轉向數位電視，電視服務所使用的技術將會發生重大革命。目前，所有處理類比電視標準（NTSC和PAL）的現有教科書都已經過時，因為數位技術的普及程度越來越廣泛。現在，《數位電視：技術與標準》填補了一本涵蓋數位電視技術各個方面的單一權威教科書的需求。

《數位電視》分為三個主要部分，探討以下內容：
* 影像：MPEG-2，它是所有數位視訊廣播服務的核心
* 音訊：MPEG-2高級音訊編碼和杜比AC-3，將在國際數位視訊廣播系統中使用
* 系統：MPEG、調變傳輸、前向錯誤修正、數據廣播、條件存取和數位儲存媒體指令和控制

這本寶貴的教科書附有表格、插圖和圖表，每章末尾都有問題和實驗室，並提供了一些練習題，讓學生可以使用MATLAB實施所討論的各種技術。作者對實施和理論的涵蓋使其成為專業人士的實用參考書，也是電機工程和計算機科學專業的高年級本科生和研究生不可或缺的教科書。
