Basic Principles of Digital Television Transmission

  • Paul Dambacher

Abstract

This section explains the basic principles of terrestrial digital television transmission. It is divided into a first part which deals with the video and audio encoding and the MPEG-2 transport stream. This part also applies to the other technical media of satellite (for direct reception) and cable and will certainly also apply completely to other future paths (e.g. ADSL — Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line and MMDS — Microwave Multipoint Distribution System).
