DTV on a chip - An Overview

Workshop Description:

DTV’s rapid growth in popularity is spurred by the high-definition video quality as well as the availability of a variety of new features and services including video on demand (VoD), gaming, security, PVR, interactive TV, merchandising and Web browser capabilities. In this half-day Workshop, an overview of Digital TV technology and its system-level block diagram will be provided and main blocks will be discussed. Dr. Jordan Isailovic, will covers the video chain from the initial capture of video content to the final viewing experience. Applicable compression technologies such as MPEG will be reviewed. Topics that will be reviewed, include:


- Digital Television architecture and functionality
- MPEG TV
- System Interfaces
- Major video processing building blocks
- Trade-off between performance and cost.
- Multi-format picture decoding in support of high definition AVC, H.264, VC-1, AVS and MPEG-2 streams
- Aspect ratio conversions; AFD, closed captions 608/708
- Synchronization in the MPEG world; Lip-sync and latency issues
- Conditional access, authorization and control
- Strategic consideration for the design of digital TV system-on-chip
products
- Major trends and Future A/V Standards [H.265, etc.]
- Looking beyond HD: 3D, Hi-vision, mobile TV, etc.


Who Should Attend:

Engineers, technical management, system architects, technology analysts, systems developers and integrators, etc., who are interested in getting a comprehensive overview of the Digital TV technology and its single chip opportunity would greatly benefit from this half-day informative workshop.

Instructor:

Dr. Jordan Isailovic is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at California State University. He is the author of Videodisc and Optical Memory Technologies and Videodisc Systems: Theory and Applications. He has authored numerous technical articles and holds several patents on digital information storage techniques and video signal processing. He presented the world's first public engineering course on videodisc technology (January 1982) and taught the world's first graduate courses on videodisc and optical memories (CD, CD-ROM, etc.).
