Colour Television:Technology, Transmission and Reception

0.0

This text is based on CCIR-625 line PAL B&G colour television standards adopted by many European, Middle East, African and Asian countries including India. The coverage is also relevant to PAL-I standards adopted by the U.K. The American NTSC, and French SECAM colour TV systems have also been accorded due coverage. While describing all aspects of Colour Television, attempt has been made to describe fully the circuitry of colour receiver ICs together with adequate explanation of their peripheral elements. Though the technology that made colour television a success remains the same, efforts have been continuing to improve upon the system. Chapters 19 and 20 have thus been rewritten to give a peep into such innovations. New Features: Advances in colour receivers. Plasma and LCD screen receivers. EDTV and HDTV. Digital Satellite Television. Direct to Home Satellite Television. TV Signal Distribution to Subscribers.

R.R. Gulati was a faculty member of the E & E department of B.I.T.S., Pilani (Rajasthan) for a long time. While teaching there, he felt there was an urgent need for a comprehensive book on Television Engineering that was fully compatible with the CCIR 625 line B & W and PAL colour TV standards India adopted while introducing television in the country. His book "MONOCHROME AND COLOUR TELEVISION" that was published in 1983 met this requirement. It was soon recognized as a course book on television engineering by most Technical Institutions in the country. As television technology advanced and new systems and standards emerged, Prof. Gulati kept pace with these developments and wrote another three books for the benefit of engineering students and those engaged in the field of television. The books are: (1) COLOUR TELEVISION, (2) MODERN TELEVISION PRACTICE and (3) COMPOSITE SATELLITE AND CABLE TELEVISION. The revised and updated editions of his books continue to be in great demand. In recognition of Prof. R.R. Gulati`s contribution to the cause of education, he was chosen for the `DISTINGUISHED AUTHOR AWARD` for the year 2004 by the Federation of Educational Publishing India, Delhi.
