Summary
Digital television is about re-invention of the television industry
via digital technology, just like digital computer re-invented the
computing and documenting industries. This course is about Analog and
Digital TV basics and relevant signal processing. The course covers
the fundamental technology that lies at the heart of compression -
particularly MPEG - and high definition television (HDTV), and Digital
TV in general. It is recommended as an introductory course for the
MPEG-2 or DTV course.
Course
Objectives
At the completion of this course, students will have a basic
understanding of how analog video is digitalized, carried, and tested.
Students will gain an understanding of the processes involved in video
encoding and decoding. They will be familiar with the color space and
colorimetry, gamma processing, etc. Students will learn to identify
common problems with digital video quality, their causes, and
solutions. In addition, students will learn basic analog and digital
video standards, principles standards are based on and terminology.
