Convergence in Broadcast and Communications Media offers concise
and accurate information for engineers and technicians tackling
products and systems combining audio, video, data processing and
communications. Without adequate fundamental knowledge of the core
technologies, products could be flawed or even fail. John Watkinson
has provided a definitive professional guide, designed as a
standard point of reference for engineers, whether you are from an
audio, video, computer or communications background. Without
assuming any background and starting from first principles, the
four core technologies of image reproduction, sound reproduction,
data processing and communications are described. Covering
everything from digital fundamentals to conversion methods, sound
and image technologies, compression techniques, digital coding
principles, storage devices and the latest communications systems,
the book shows how these technologies operate together and the
necessary conversions that take place between them. Acronyms and
buzzwords are introduced only after their purpose has been
described in plain English - as the book serves to give a reliable
grasp of the fundamentals. The criteria involved in determining
image and sound quality are based on a thorough treatment of the
human senses, a unique description of how motion portrayal works in
managing systems. John Watkinson is an international consultant in
audio video and data recording. He is a Fellow of the AES, a member
of the British Computer Society and a chartered information systems
practitioner. He presents lectures, seminars, conference papers and
training courses worldwide and writes for many industry magazines.
His other books for Focal Press are widely acknowledged as standard
reference works and industry `bibles'. John is author of MPEG2, The
Art of Digital Video and the Art of Digital Audio, An Introduction
to Digital Video, An Introduction to Digital Audio, The Art of
Sound Reproduction, Television Fundamentals, Co-author of The
Digital Interface Handbook and Contributor to The Loudspeaker and
Headphone Handbook.
