SimulcastSimulcast est un terme formé par la contraction de « simultaneous broadcast ». Il fait référence à la diffusion simultanée d'un même contenu (audio ou vidéo) sur deux médias distincts ou sur un seul média en utilisant deux types de modulation. Un programme de télévision ou de radio peut être diffusé simultanément sur les ondes hertziennes et par Internet. Une émission radio peut être diffusée sur une onde hertzienne simultanément en numérique et en analogique.
DatacastingDatacasting (data broadcasting) is the broadcasting of data over a wide area via radio waves. It most often refers to supplemental information sent by television stations along with digital terrestrial television (DTT), but may also be applied to digital signals on analog TV or radio. It generally does not apply to data which is inherent to the medium, such as PSIP data which defines virtual channels for DTT or direct broadcast satellite systems; or to things like cable modem or satellite modem, which use a completely separate channel for data.
Uncompressed videoUncompressed video is digital video that either has never been compressed or was generated by decompressing previously compressed digital video. It is commonly used by video cameras, video monitors, video recording devices (including general-purpose computers), and in video processors that perform functions such as image resizing, image rotation, deinterlacing, and text and graphics overlay. It is conveyed over various types of baseband digital video interfaces, such as HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort and SDI.
Télévision mobile personnelleLa télévision mobile personnelle (souvent abrégé en TMP) est une télévision numérique dont les récepteurs sont mobiles. Ces derniers peuvent par exemple être intégrés dans des téléphones mobiles ou des véhicules (automobile, autobus, train, métro). Il est possible de capter la télévision numérique terrestre (TNT) avec certains appareils mobiles (baladeurs, GPS, téléphones portables), cependant la qualité de réception peut être dégradée du fait d'un format de diffusion qui n'est pas adapté, et au prix d'une consommation électrique élevée.
ISDBvignette|400px|Utilisation des principaux formats de diffusion numérique dans le monde. LISDB est une norme japonaise de diffusion de télévision et radio numérique. Elle comporte plusieurs sous-normes, qui sont l'ISDB-T (pour la diffusion dite terrestre), l'ISDB-S (pour la diffusion par satellite) et l'ISDB-C (pour la diffusion par câble). L'ISDB-T est elle-même découpée en deux normes dites 1seg et 13seg, la première étant prévue pour la réception sur appareil mobile.
Digital cableDigital cable is the distribution of cable television using digital data and video compression. The technology was first developed by General Instrument. By 2000, most cable companies offered digital features, eventually replacing their previous analog-based cable by the mid 2010s. During the late 2000s, broadcast television converted to the digital HDTV standard, which was incompatible with existing analog cable systems.
Glossary of video termsThis glossary defines terms that are used in the document "Defining Video Quality Requirements: A Guide for Public Safety", developed by the Video Quality in Public Safety (VQIPS) Working Group. It contains terminology and explanations of concepts relevant to the video industry. The purpose of the glossary is to inform the reader of commonly used vocabulary terms in the video domain. This glossary was compiled from various industry sources.
Video compression picture typesIn the field of video compression a video frame is compressed using different algorithms with different advantages and disadvantages, centered mainly around amount of data compression. These different algorithms for video frames are called picture types or frame types. The three major picture types used in the different video algorithms are I, P and B. They are different in the following characteristics: I‐frames are the least compressible but don't require other video frames to decode.
Hierarchical modulationHierarchical modulation, also called layered modulation, is one of the signal processing techniques for multiplexing and modulating multiple data streams into one single symbol stream, where base-layer symbols and enhancement-layer symbols are synchronously overplayed before transmission. Hierarchical modulation is particularly used to mitigate the cliff effect in digital television broadcast, particularly mobile TV, by providing a (lower quality) fallback signal in case of weak signals, allowing graceful degradation instead of complete signal loss.
