HDTV digital broadcast - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Two questions on digital broadcast.

When a digital signal is passed through a component or filter, what type of slope can a digital signal have in any 6MHz segment?

What would the minimum VSWR for a digital transmit be through the component or filter?

Any recommend lit on this topic?

thanks!

Are you talking about digital cable or digital broacast television?

What country is the system for?

Also, HDTV is term for the resolution of the picture. DTV it the term for American digital broadcast (8VSB) regardless of the information carried by the signal.

I would say both Off air broadcast and over cable..

I was told that an over the air digital channel:

Channel Bandwidth: 5.2MHz
Slope: +/- 1dB,...2dB max
Delay: 200uS.

I was not given the suggested return loss.

I am looking for confirmation or correction on this info.

It was suggested that there was a Texas Istrument article but I haven't been able to find it!

Thanks for any help!
