Error Measurements in Studio Digital Video Systems
No measurable error rate is acceptable in a studio digital television system due to the nature of the transmission method and the visibility of the errors. The definition and measurement of errors in serial digital television signals must take into consideration the specific attributes of television equipment and the digital interconnection system. This article compares the use of traditional bit error rate measurement techniques with a method designed to be part of the digital television signal. Theoretical calculations are presented that closely correspond with measured results and emphasize the need for built-in error detection.
