An introduction for engineers, technicians, students and electronics buffs, covering the latest digital systems, hardware, transmission methods, and government involvement. As the Federal Communications Commission prepares to choose a standard high-definition television system for the US market, HDTV continues to advance both technologically and legislatively towards full acceptance in North America. The book gives users an inside look at the technical aspects of this revolutionary video technology. The only journalistic member of the FCC's panel of experts testing HDTV systems, Stan Prentiss is able to bring to this new edition the most current information possible on transmission and receiving systems, their advantages and disadvantages, and the methods being used to produce them. A supplement to, rather than an update of, the first edition, "HDTV", 2nd edition will help communications specialists and marketers profit from the new age of video communications.
