Application of Laser Technology to Equipment for High Definition Television

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing: An Application to High Definition Television

High-definition television and telemetry.

In March 1998, WFAA-TV in Dallas became the first television station in the United States to venture into the future of digital broadcasting. But as the broadcast signal went into the airwaves, medical telemetry units on the 13th floor at nearby Webb Roberts Hospital at Baylor University Medical Center went blank. It was 24 hours before engineers at the television station and Baylor put 2 and 2...

Signal Processing for High-Definition Television

This thesis presents new design techniques for source coding of video signals. The main application is high-definition television (HDTV), characterized by roughly twice the vertical and horizontal resolution of current systems; aggressive source coding is required to compress the large amount of video information into the relatively narrow channels envisioned for the new service. Video source c...

Using a commodity high-definition television for collaborative structural biology

Visualization of protein structures using stereoscopic systems is frequently needed by structural biologists working to understand a protein's structure-function relationships. Often several scientists are working as a team and need simultaneous interaction with each other and the graphics representations. Most existing molecular visualization tools support single-user tasks, which are not suit...

Subjective Assessment for Image Quality in High-definition Television

a) that a number of administrations and organizations throughout the world are currently evaluating high-definition television (HDTV) systems, and that in many parts of the world HDTV broadcasting is likely to become the primary medium of the next century; b) that subjective assessments are a vital element in HDTV system design and selection; c) that Recommendation ITU-R BT.500 outlines general...
