TYPES OF TRANSMISSIONS

TYPES OF TRANSMISSIONS

There are several types of transmissions in TV broadcasting, including:

1.     Analog transmission: This is the traditional method of broadcasting television signals, where audio and video signals are sent in analog form through electromagnetic waves. It is now mostly obsolete due to the digital transition.

2.     Digital transmission: This is the current standard for TV broadcasting, where audio and video signals are converted into digital data and transmitted through electromagnetic waves. Digital transmission provides better picture and sound quality, as well as more channels and interactive features.

3.     Satellite transmission: TV signals can be transmitted via satellite by sending the signal to a satellite in space, which then beams it back to Earth for reception by satellite dishes. This is commonly used for broadcasting national and international channels.

4.     Cable transmission: TV signals can be transmitted through cable lines, which are then distributed to subscribers through cable boxes. Cable transmission offers a wide range of channels and usually provides higher quality signals compared to over-the-air broadcasting.

5.     Internet Protocol Television (IPTV): This is a method of transmitting TV signals over the internet using the IP protocol. IPTV allows for on-demand streaming and interactive features, making it a popular choice for many TV providers.

6.     Terrestrial transmission: TV signals can also be transmitted over-the-air through terrestrial towers, which are received by antennas on rooftops or indoor antennas. This is the most basic form of TV transmission and is still used for local and some national channels.

7.     Fiber-optic transmission: Some TV providers use fiber-optic cables to transmit TV signals, providing high-speed and high-quality broadcasts.

8.     Mobile TV transmission: TV signals can be transmitted to mobile devices through mobile networks, allowing users to watch TV on their smartphones and tablets.
