Exciter Stages
Main Processes
A CIN Diplexer
Vision/sound exciter stages carry out the modulation on IF carriers Then IF is upconverted to RF using crystal stabilized local oscilllators RF vision & sound carriers are separately amplified. Amplified RF carriers are combined using a TV diplexer

Antenna Arrays
Horizontal Plane Radiation Pattern
Important Aspects
Beam Tilt
Signal degradation
Tilting the beam downwards to minimize power wastage Calculate it according to coverage area An array produces peaks and nulls Null filing should be done in both horizontal & vertical planes by phasing the antennas.

HDTV
Emerging Technologies
HDTV
(High Definition TV)
16 x 9 aspect ratio. Studio Standard: 1080/50i in 50Hz countries. Transmission standard: country-dependent. Picture information about 5 times that of conventional TV Needs critical camera focusing and attention to the wide aspect ratio. OB can use fewer cameras. Compatibility with 4x3 SDTV

Mobile TV
Broadcast to hand-sets (mobile phones, PDAs), notebook PCs, etc. Interactive and audio services. T-DMB (Terrestrial-DMB) Evolved from DAB. Allows video, audio and data to be transmitted to mobile devices. More efficient audio coding. Backward compatible with DAB audio (MUSICAM). DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting Handheld) Tailored for transmitting multiple TV channels to mobile devices. Time-slicing technology conserves battery power of mobile devices.
IPTV
(Internet Protocol TV)
Use of Internet Protocol (IP) for home TV transmission, can be over phone lines, via optical fibre trunks. Flexibility of including interactive services and HDTV. Offers many TV channels, viewer-targeting. For HDTV, application of MPEG4 AVC (H.264)/ VC-1 (WMV) coding, VDSL2/ ADSL2+ technologies or Fibre to the Home/ Building (FTTH/ FTTB).
