Book Description
The book introduces the basic foundations of high mathematics and vector algebra. Then, it explains the basic aspects of classical electrodynamics and electromagnetism. Based on such knowledge readers investigate various radio propagation problems related to guiding structures connecting electronic devices with antenna terminals placed at the different radar systems. It explains the role of antennas in process of transmission of radio signals between the terminals. Finally, it shows the relation between the main operational charactistics of each kind of radar and the corresponding knowledge obtained from the previous chapters.

Book Description
This is the first English handbook devoted to Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting-Terrestrial (ISDB-T), one of the most widely used terrestrial television broadcasting standards originally developed in Japan.This book has been planned and carefully designed to provide an essential overview, and detailed specific information, on every technical element of the ISDB-T system and is organized into four parts. The following are the parts: The core technology elements of an ISDB-T system, including Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), hierarchical transmission, error correction, multiplexing, Moving Pictures Experts Group (MPEG) video/audio coding, and datacasting. It also covers some principles and fundamental technologies that are common to the digital terrestrial broadcast systems. Basic receiver types, overall receiver structure, RF synchronization techniques and fixed/mobile reception technology. For mobile reception, the focus is on the One-Seg narrow band reception technology. A number of key issues in the deployment of broadcast networks, such as contents delivery network design, Signal Frequency Network (SFN) design, signal quality measurement of ISDB-T RadioFrequency (RF) signal and Emergency Warning Broadcast Topics associated with regulatory matters including frequency allocation and channel planning This book contains several real-world examples, including parameter setting in data-rate calculation, SFN or infrastructure deployment with detailed explanation on Japanese Association of Radio Industries and Business (ARIB) and Brazilian Associa��o Brasileira de Normas T�cnicas (ABNT) standard. This book will be of considerable use to the broadcast operator, product design engineers, and engineering students in understanding the capabilities and limitations of the ISDB-T system.

Book Description
The transition to computer-based technologies and file-based workflows is one of the most significant changes the broadcast and production industry has seen. Media is produced for multiple delivery platforms: Over the Air, Over the Top, large screen displays, cable, satellite, web, digital signage, tablets, and smartphones. These changes impact all aspects of creation, production, media management, technical operations, business processes, and distribution to end users. Of all the books and papers discussing storage mapping, packet transport, and compression algorithms, none puts all the pieces together and explains where these fit into the whole environment. Planning and Designing the IP Broadcast Facility is the first to provide a comprehensive understanding of the technology architecture, physical facility changes, and—most importantly—the new media management workflows and business processes to support the entire lifecycle of the IP broadcast facility from an engineering and workflow perspective. Key features: This beginning-to-end perspective gives you the necessary knowledge to make the decisions to implement a cost-effective file-based production and distribution system. The cohesive, big-picture viewpoint helps you identify the differences in a tape-based facility, then how to overcome the unique challenges of upgrading your plant. Case studies throughout the book serve as recommendations and examples of use, helping you weigh the pros and cons of various approaches.
