SEMINAR REPORT ON
DIGITAL TV

INTRODUCTION
What is DTV?
The DTV standard is a very flexible television system that will
allow broadcasters to provide new and higher quality services. First,
DTV will permit transmission of television programming in new wide
screen, high resolution formats known as high definition television
(HDTV). In addition, the new DTV television system allows
transmissions in standard definition television (SDTV) formats that
provide picture resolution similar to existing television service. Both
the HDTV and SDTV formats will have significantly better color than
the existing analog television system. DTV also will provide improved
audio quality, similar to that of compact discs. Additional features and
functions such as color, stereo sound, remote control, cable channels
and others have been added.
According to Allied Business Intelligence there would be 242
million TVs will be digital by 2005 from 40 million in 2000. The
number of global TV installations as of today is exceeding 1 billion in
number.
The salient features of digital TV are, Channel compression
(400% compression), Dolby Audio (5.1), High resolution viewing
(1080 X 1920), 16:9 aspect ratio (wide picture).
In US all the commercial broadcasting will be digital by
2003. By 2006 there won’t be any along transmission.
Digital TV Vs Analog TV
Analog TV has a resolution of 486 X 720
pixels, two-channel stereo and 4:3 aspect ratio
of the screen compressed in a bandwidth of 6
MHz. The Analog signal is susceptible to noise,
multi reflections resulting in quality degradation.
Analog TV uses Amplitude modulation for video
and frequency modulation for audio.
Digital TV has a resolution starting from
486 X 720 to 1080 X 1290 pixels, 5.1 Dolby
audio (two-channel stereo, two-channel
surrounding, center channel and woofer
channel) and 16:9 aspect ratio of screen.
The features of digital TV
Channel compression (400% compression)
Dolby Audio (5.1)
High resolution viewing (1080 X 1920)
16:9 aspect ratio (vide picture)
Clearer and sharper cinema-like pictures
Multi-channel (up to five channels/program)
Broadcasters have the ability to simultaneously transmit
multiple video programs using a single TV channel.
Multicasting: DTV signals are carried over a wider bandwidth
and can be split into sub-segments of an original channel but of
lower resolution programming.
There are two types of digital TV systems: standard definition
television (SDTV) and high definition television (HDTV). Both
HDTV and SDTV formats will have significantly better color
performance than the existing analog TV system.
The Benefits of the Digital TV are
 Due to channel compression, more channels
can be transmitted or utilization of entire channel
results in high quality video.
 Theatrical quality of sound due to 5.1 Dolby.

 Finer details of the picture with true color.


 Wider viewing due to improved aspect ratio.
