Delivery of TV over Existing Phone Lines

Peter F. Prunty

This article describes a system for delivering compressed digital TV over existing phone lines concurrent with conventional phone service. The system uses Motion Picture Experts Group (MPEG) compression and an innovative transmission technique, called carrierless amplitude phase modulation (CAP). Some of the details of these technologies and how they are used in the system are covered.
