A Guide to Digital TV
What is Digital Television?
Digital television (DTV) is a new way of transmitting high qtlality video and alldio to
yoln" TV set. Using DTV_bir_adcasters can transmit high definition TV (HDTV) images,
Do lby digital sln'rol md alldio, and new services sllch as mltlticasting (transmitting more
than one program on the same TV channel) and datacasting (providing electronic pro-
gram gllides and interactive television). Several of these services can be combined into a
single digital broadcast.
Digital Television Services
Digital Picture Quality
DTV programs are transmitted in two different formats. The first is Standard Definition
Television (SDTV) and the second is High Definition Television (HDTV).
SDTV program formats incl.de 480dine interlaced (480i) and 480-line progressive
(480p) video. 480i programs are essentially a digital version of olu" clu'rent analog TV
programs, while the 480p fi_rmat offers improved image detail over 480i. Some 480p
programs are broadcast in widescreen and are comparable to progressive-scan DVD
movies in image % lality
HDTV program fi)rmats inclHde 1080dine interlaced (1080i) and 720dine progressive
(720p). Both HDTV formats are always broadcast in widescreen, and offer milch higher
picn u'e % lality than SDTM
Dolby Surround Sound
With DTV_yo. can listen to a variety of Dolby digital a.dio formats fl'om Dolby
S.rro.nd 2.0 to Dolby Digital 5.1 s.rro.nd, Hsing yoHr home a.dio system. Many
HDTV programs are now broadcast with DD 5.1 so.ndtracks.
Interactive Communications and Datacasting
DTV will allow yo. to interact with yo.r television; choosing programs fi'om a detailed
program gl fide, ordering prodllcts on-line while watching TV_and accessing ancillary
data abo.t a program.
How to View Digital Television
There are three ways to watch DTV The first is to use an integrated digital TV; one with
a blJilt-in digital television timer. The second is to connect an external DTV set-top
receiver to a DTVlready television or monitor. This type of TV or monitor will have
wideband component video and stereo andio inpnts. Yon can also watch DTV signals
with personal complltei" (PC) tllner cards and complltei" monitors.
1. Integrated TVs versus DTV-ready TVs and monitors
The advantage of an integrated DTV set is that it can time both analog and digital TV
channels at the same time. All yon'll need to do is add an external antenna and yon are
ready to watch DTV
However, integrated DTV sets are not as common as DTVhready TVs and monitors.
If yon already own a DTV-ready TV with comt3onent video inputs, you can eI_joy DTV
broadcasts by simply adding a low-cost DTV set-top receiver and antenna.
2. Using a personal computer and monitor
There are phlg-in cards available that will receive and display DTV broadcasts on yollr
cornplltei" monitor. In addition, many complltei" monitors will display one or more of
the DTV program formats directly< The most compatible format is 480p, which is similar
to the VGA (640x480 pixel) compnter display standard. Yon may be able to watch DTV
broadcasts by connecting a completer monitor to the 15-pin jack on the rear of the set-
top DTV receiver.
NOTE
This television receiver supports the copy protection system regulated by DTLA (Digital
Transmission Licensing Administrator). It should be noted that copy protected content may
not be viewable depending on your particular connections.
Q&A
1. Is the antenna I use for existing TV reception good enough for DTV?
Over-the-air (OTA) digital TV broadcasting uses the same channels as analog TV and
works well with many existing TV antennas. However, DTV broadcast channel assign-
merits are different than analog channels. You should find out whether your local DTV
broadcasts are on VHF (channels 2-13) or UHF (channels 14-69) to see if'you need a
different antenna.
If yolu" DTV channels are on UHF and you ah'eady get good UHF reception, yolu" pre-
sent antenna may work fine. The same holds true for VHF DTV reception. Note that
in some markets, both VHF and UHF channels are used fbr DTV broadcasts.
You can find out the latest DTV channel assignments %r your area by browsing selected
Internet web sites such as www.titant_com, www. 10000watts.corn, and ww_tfi'c.go_
2. How difficult is it to receive DTV signals indoors?
This depends on whether your local DTV stations are running flfll power or not and
how close your location is to the transmission tower. DTV receivers do not require as
much signal as analog TV receivers to produce high-quality images and sound.
Once the DTV signal level exceeds a certain threshold at the receiver, the digital video
and audio data is decoded at the same q.ality it was originally encoded for broadcast.
This is a big artvantage fbr DTV over analog TV - there is no noise, ghosting, static, or
scratchy alldio.
3. How can I connect an antenna in my townhouse, co-operative
apartment, condominium, or apartment?
The Federal Comm.nications Commission's OTARD R.le (part of the
Telecommlu_ications Act of 1996) allows residents of condominilm_s, townhollse, or
members of neighborhood associations to put .p outside antennas for reception of
broadcast TV signals as long as those antennas are not located in common areas and
are no more than 12' in height.
Residents of rental units (apartments, etc) are not covered by the OTARD rules and
will have to use indoor antennas to receive DTV broadcasts. It is possible that the
landlord of an apartment complex can provide broadcast DTV signals via a master TV
antenna system to each at_artment.
4. Can I connect my DTV set-top receiver to my cable TV service?
Cable TV systems Hse a different method %r transmitting digital TV pit)grams that is
currently incompatible with broadcast DTV set-top receivers. So you will still need to
llse an olltdooi" or indoor antenna to receive OTA broadcast DTV t_I'ogI'ams.
The good news is that yoH won't have to pay a monthly or pei_program charge to
watch OTA DTV and HDTV programs. They're fl'ee, Hnlike sHbscription satellite TV or
premium cable TV All yo. need is an antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to et!joy
clear, sharp widescreen images and high-quality audio.
