Design Problems in Television Systems and Receivers

A discussion is presented of the present-day television standards as adopted by the Radio Manufacturers Association, stressing their importance in relation to the design and production of television receiving equipment. — Emphasis is placed upon the limitations of the standards and the possibility of their obsolescence in the future. It is claimed that the lack of flexibility embodied therein is very likely to cause serious. difficulties for the industry in the future, for the transmission of a video signal is a much. more complex problem than the transmission of an audio signal as in modern radio broadcasting where standards were relatively unimportant. — As an aid to circumventing any of the limitations of the present tentative standards, a new system of television transmission standards is proposed which will greatly simplify the considerations involved in the design of television receivers.
