Digital Video

  • Digital video is basically a sequence of digital

images

  • Processing of digital video has much in common with digital image processing
  • First we review the basic principles of analog

television

Television Fundamentals

  • Color television cameras and television receivers use the RGB (red, green, blue) color system to create any color
  • We have seen how raster scan devices operate
  • Commercial television systems, however, use interlaced scanning as opposed to the progressive scanning of computer monitors

Television Fundamentals

  • Since the phosphors retain their values for longer than the time that it takes to transmit two fields, and since rate of transmission of a field is shorter than the human eye can perceive, the viewer does not perceive this interlacing
  • If the frame rate is at least 25-30 frames per second the viewer does not perceive motion in an image sequence as discrete, but as continuous

Interlaced Scanning

  • In the figures, the first field is transmitted at

time t = 0 and displayed at time t = f / 2

  • f is the frame rate
  • The second field is transmitted at time t = f / 2

and displayed at time t = f

  • Note that the display at time t = f consists of

information (scan lines) from two distinct

points in time

The second field of a television

transmission

A complete frame

Deinterlacing

  • There are several common

operations that you might want to

perform on interlaced video

  • Producing stills
  • resizing the video
  • changing the frame etc.
  • Performing these operations on raw,

interlaced, video can produce

undesirable artifacts

Deinterlacing

  • Deinterlacing provides a way around

these problems

  • All deinterlacing methods involve

turning the field-based image into

a frame-based image by modifying

one of the fields in the image

  • Popular methods include duplication

and interpolation

Digital Television

  • Considering the bandwidth of the NTSC signal, how would digital transmission compare to today’s analog? We have:
  • 30 frames/second x 130,000 pixels/frame x 24 bits/pixel = 93.6 Mbits/second
  • To be competitive with analog transmission, a data compression of more than 20:1 is required - All digital television standards therefore include some form of compression.
  • The disadvantage of digital television therefore, is the extra bandwidth required

Digital Television

  • An error rate of 10-8^ or one bit in 100 million

bits is practically undetectable

  • Channel error rates of 10 -5^ still permit

acceptable pictures, especially if error

correction techniques are used

  • An analog TV signal requires a channel with a

signal-to-error ratio (SER) of 55dB

Digital Television

  • If we use PCM for a digital television signal,

the principal source of error is due to

quantization

  • The error is a maximum of + or - 1/2 the least significant bit
  • For a quantization level of 8 bits, this is + or - 0.2%
  • This “fine” quantization would appear as white noise if viewed as a picture

Digital Television

  • A bit error rate of 10-8^ is practically undetectable
    • From the figure above, this requires a SER of only 21 dB
    • If we use the rate 10-5^ with error correction bits added, a SER of 18 dB may be sufficient
    • This requires less than 1 bit/pixel
  • The essential problem in digital TV coding is therefore to reduce the picture bandwidth at the expense of the bit error rate and retain acceptable picture quality

Aspect Ratios

  • Each of the systems listed above has an aspect

ratio (ratio of width to height) of 4:

  • Cinematic films and high-definition television

(HDTV) systems have aspect ratios of

approximately 16:
