5. 1)Direct Broadcast Satellite(DBS) television

6. DBS Television

7. Overview of the DBS
• DBS Satellite used to deliver TV programs to viewers all over the world. Ex
“Nile-Sat”
• The signals used by broadcast TV satellites are typically digitally compressed.
• The provider selects programs and broadcasts them to subscribers as a set
package.

8. • This is a large GEO DBS TV Satellite.

9. Need of Multiple Access
• Satellites are usually built and employed for the common good of one or more
regions.
• For this purpose, one of the several multiple access techniques, Mentioned
are FDMA, TDMA and DAMA.

10. FDMA
• Satellite frequency is already broken into bands, and is broken in to smaller
channels in Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA).
• Overall bandwidth within a frequency band is increased due to frequency
reuse.
• The number of sub-channels is limited by three factors:
1. Thermal noise (a signal will be effected by background noise).
2. Intermodulation noise ( a signal will cause noise).
3. Crosstalk (cause by excessive frequency reusing).

11. FDMA can be performed in two ways:
• Fixed-assignment multiple access (FAMA): The sub-channel assignments are
of a fixed allotment. Ideal for broadcast satellite communication.
• Demand-assignment multiple access (DAMA): The sub-channel allotment
changes based on demand. Ideal for point to point communication .

12. TDMA
• TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) breaks a transmission into multiple time
slots, each one dedicated to a different transmitter.
• TDMA is increasingly becoming more widespread in satellite communication.
• TDMA uses the same techniques (FAMA and DAMA) as FDMA does.

13. Advantages of TDMA over FDMA:
• Digital equipment used in time division multiplexing is increasingly becoming
cheaper.
• There are advantages in digital transmission techniques. Ex: error correction.

14. Demand Assigned Multiple Access (DAMA)
• This technique is used when the link between the station and satellite is not a
constant one.
• This helps assign bandwidth according to demand.
• This can be implemented on TDMA or as a combination with FDMA and TDMA.

15. Components involved in a DBS system

16. • Programming sources are simply the channels that provide programming for
broadcast. The provider doesn't create original programming itself; it pays
other companies for the right to broadcast their content via satellite.
• The broadcast center is the central hub of the system. At the broadcast
center, the TV provider receives signals from various programming sources
and beams a broadcast signal to satellites in geosynchronous orbit.
• The satellites receive the signals from the broadcast station and rebroadcast
them to Earth.
• The viewer's dish picks up the signal from the satellite and passes it on to the
receiver in the viewer's house.
• The receiver processes the signal and passes it on to a standard TV.

17. Application
• Subscription-based TV
• Pay per-view (PPV)
• Digital video recorders (DVR)
• Interactive services

18. VIDEO COMPRESSION BASICS
(MPEG-2)

19. Overview
• A video comprises of a sequence of frames.
Frame 1 Frame 2 Frame 3 Frame 4
• A video, of the duration of 1 second, generated by a TV camera usually
contains 24 frames or 30 frames.
• Each pixel in a frame is represented by three attributes (each 8 bits long) –
One luminance attribute and two chrominance attributes. (i.e. YCbCr)
Luminance(Y): Describes the brightness of the pixel.
Chrominance(CbCr):Describes the color of the pixel.
{Y, Cb,Cr}
Frame

20. YCbCr encoding
• converts block’s RGB data into YCbCr color space.
Raw Frame R G B
• RGB color space contains mutual redundancies, so it requires large space for
storage and high bandwidth for transmission.
• Encoding RGB into YCbCr color space reduces the mutual redundancies
Raw Frame Cr y Cb
example:

21. Video Scheme
Types of video schemes used for transmission -
1. Interlaced Video Scanning
• In this, a frame is divided into two separate fields – Top Fields and Bottom
fields. Frame
Bottom
Even numbered
rows in a frame.
Top Fields
Odd numbered rows
in a frame.
Field 1
Field 2
• The two successive fields (field 1 & field 2) are called a frame.
• Both the fields are sent one after another and display puts them back together
before displaying the full frame.
• Maximum frame rate is 60 frames/ second.

22. 2.Progressive Video Scanning
• In this, complete frame is send to display.
• Bandwidth requirement is twice as compared to Interlaced video scanning.
• Quality is good as frames come in sync and image is much sharper.
• Maximum frame rate is 30 frames/ second.

23. • MPEG stands for Motion Picture Experts Group established in 1988 as a
working group within ISO/IEC that has defined standards for digital
compression of audio & video signals. Such as-
1. MPEG-1 : It was the very first project of this group and published in 1993
• MPEG-1 defines coding methods to compress the progressively scanned
video.
• Commonly used in CD-i and Video CD systems.
• It supports coding bit rate of 1.5 Mbit/s.
2. MPEG-2: is an extension of mpeg-1 and published in 1995
• Commonly used in broadcast format, such as – Standard Definition TV (SDT)
and High Definition TV (HDT).
• It supports coding bit rate of 3 - 15 Mbit/s for SDT and 15 – 20 Mbit/s for HDT.

24. 3. MPEG-4 : introduced in 1998 and still in development ..
• MPEG-4 defines object based coding methods for mixed media data and
provides new features, such as – 3D rendering, animation graphics, various
types of interactivity etc.
• Commonly used in web based streaming media, CD, videophone, etc. .
• It supports bit rate of few Kbit/s of Mbit/s.

25. MPEG-2 Video Compression
MPEG-2 compresses a raw frame into three different kind of frames –
Raw Frame
I-Frame P-Frame B-Frame
• Intra coded frames (I-frames),
• Predictive coded frames (P-frames)
• Bi-directionally predictive coded frames (B-frames)
• Compressed frames (I, P & B frames) are organized in a sequence to form Group of Pictures
(GOP).
(GOP 1)
I B P B P B P B I
B
Group of
pictures

26. I MPEG-2 Frames
1. I - Frame
• Compressed directly from a raw (uncompressed) frame.
• Compression is based in the current raw frame only and inability of human eye to detect certain
changes in the image.
• I-frame is a reference frame and can be used to predict the P-frame immediately following it.
2. P - Frame
• Compression is based on spatial redundancy(pixels) as well as on time based
redundancy(frame).
• P-frame can be predicted by referring I-frame or P-frame immediately preceding it.

27. 3. B - Frame
• Compression is similar to P-frame except that B-frame compression is done by referring
previous as well as following I-frame and or P frame.

28. INTERNET
PROTOCOL
TELEVISION
(IP-TV)

29. • IPTV stands for Internet Protocol Television.
• It is a digital television services that receives both TV or multimedia services
via Internet connection.
• IPTV will provide better quality of service than Internet streaming video.
• IPTV has the potential to offer an interactive, customized experience.

What is IPTV?

30. Technology used in IP-TV
1.Broadband –the key element
• As Per The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI):
“An always-on data connection that is able to support interactive services, and
has the capability of minimum download speed of 256 kbps”.

31. 2. DSL – DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER LINES
• DSL Family Tree
1. Symmetric DSL
• Provide identical data rates upstream & downstream
2. Asymmetric DSL
• Provide relatively lower rates upstream but higher rates
downstream
