Cable Television Analog Cable • An analog cable system distributes television (and other information services) via a cable television distribution system in analog modulated form. (ex. CATV) Digital Cable • A digital cable system distributes television (and other information services) via a cable television distribution system in digital modulated form. • Digital cable systems may include high-speed data and two-way interactive services.

• The CATV system gathers content from a variety of sources including network feeds, stored media, communication links and live studio sources. • The headend converts the media sources into a form that can be managed and distributed. • The asset management system stores, moves and sends out (playout) the media at scheduled times. • The distribution system simultaneously transfers multiple channels to users who are connected to the CATV system. • Users view CATV programming on televisions that are directly connected to the cable line (cable ready TVs) or through an adapter box (set top box).

a satellite TV system • A satellite TV system is a wide area media distribution system. • All the TV channels and media programs are sent on an uplink radio channel to a satellite that retransmits the signal back toward Earth. • The satellite is located approximately 22, 300 miles above the Earth which allows it to travel at the same rotational speed of the Earth so it appears stationary to the antennas that are receiving its signal.

Digital Terrestrial television system • A DTT system uses a single wide digital radio

Digital Terrestrial television system • A DTT system uses a single wide digital radio channel that is divided into multiple digital television channels. • Television broadcasters are linked to the DTT system by a digital channel and they are assigned (mapped) to a specific portion (logical channel) on the digital radio channel. • The DTT system combines (multiplexes) the incoming channels to form one digital transmission channel. • DTT receivers receive and decode a DTT frequency, separate out (demultiplexes) the specific digital (logical) channel and converts the digital channel back into its original television (video and audio) form.
