Television: Here you will learn about TV(Television) from basics.
Tele-vision- To see from a distance
First demonstration of TV : It was done by J.L. Baird in UK and C.F. Jenkins in USA around 1927 by the The technique of mechanical scanning employing rotating discs.
CRT- Cathode Ray Tube. First camera tube (the iconoscope)
1930- electromagnetic scanning of both camera and picture tubes and other ancillary circuits
The fundamental aim of a television system is to extend the sense of sight beyond its natural limits, along with the sound associated with the scene being televised.
In most television systems, as also in the C.C.I.R. 625 line monochrome system adopted by India, the picture signal is amplitude modulated and sound signal frequency modulated before transmission.
The carrier frequencies are suitably spaced and the modulated outputs radiated through a common antenna.
Thus each broadcasting station can have its own carrier frequency and the receiver can then be tuned to select any desired station. Figure 1 shows a simplified block representation of a TV transmitter and receiver.
Television Systems
In the absence of any international standards, three monochrome systems grew independently.
1. 525 line American
2. 625 line European
3. 819 line French systems
Three monochrome systems
1. National Television Systems Committee (NTSC)system.
2. PAL ( Phase Alternating Line)
3. SECAM( Sequential couleur Avec Memoire)
