Video Scrambling and Descrambling for Satellite & Cable TV provides the "how and why" of encoding and decoding video signals. Most of the currently used methods are discussed, with the necessary technical background. Since digital scrambling methods will undoubtedly supplant analog methods, information on analog/digital conversion, phase-locked loops, digital techniques, and IC data sheets are included. In this new edition the authors incorporate the many developments in this field since 1986. They elaborate the basic information on scrambling given in the first edition, and discuss current scrambling systems such as Tri-mode, SSAVI, and Videocipher II. Looking back at the "gloom and doom" predictions made in the 80s, they discuss which have proven correct, which have yet to be realized, and which have been wrong. Their discussion of basic circuitry now includes some new IC devices, and the section on political, legal and consumer aspects of scrambling has been completely updated. New digitization techniques and construction data, decoder circuitry, audio scrambling techniques, manufacturers' data sheets, US Patents, and current developments such as digital audio are also covered in this updated version. Complete revision of a best-seller Explains the theory and operation of encoding/decoding systems Scrambling & descrambling circuits
Provides designers with quick reference guides to various types of circuits; comes with 250-300 ready-to-use designs, with schematics and explanations.
This comprehensive book addresses applications for hobbyist broadcasting of AM, SSB, TV, FM Stereo and NBFM VHF-UHF signals with equipment readers can build themselves for thousands of dollars less than similar equipment sold on the retail market. The authors fully explore the legal limits and ramifications of using the equipment as well as how to get the best performance for optimum range. The key advantage is referencing a low-cost source for all needed parts, including the printed circuit board, as well as the kit. Complete source information has been included to help each reader find the kits and parts they need to build these fascinating projects."--BOOK JACKET.
The Newnes Circuits Series provides designers with quick reference guides to various types of circuits, and is written by a professional technical writer. Each book comes with 250-300 ready-to-use designs, with schematics and explanations.
Timely and practical circuits [from] the creative work of many people. Featured here are many circuits that appeared only briefly in some of our finer periodicals or limited-circulation publications. Also included are other useful and unique circuits from more readily available sources."--Introd., v. 1, p. vii.
