Abstract: Although there is widespread interest in digital television techniques, most studio equipment currently operates with analogue signals. In addition, most signals are distributed and processed in composite form. This avoids the problem of distributing separate analogue YUV components, even though many studio processes would benefit from component signal operation. Exceptionally, where direct processing of the composite signal is too difficult, such as for special effects and standards conversion, the signals are first decoded to component form, but this usually results in a loss of quality.

bio
Christopher Clarke graduated from Imperial College, London with a degree in electrical engineering and joined the BBC Research Department in September 1970. Since then, he has been involved in several aspects of digital color television systems including bit-rate reduction, test waveform generation, error protection and field-store standards conversion. He is currently working on digital PAL coding and decoding and investigating digital YUV systems for use in studios.
