Conversion of Digital Video Signals into a High Definition Transmission System

Roderick Snell

It is generally agreed that the most cost-effective method of generating high definition television signals is to up convert existing 525/625 serial digital video signals. This paper looks at the implications of up-conversion to HDTV and examines such issues as 60Hz to 50Hz conversion, aspect ratio conversion as well as the implications of system noise and other unwanted artifacts.
