Abstract :
The US HDTV process has fostered substantial research and development activity over recent years. Four digital HDTV systems were tested at the Advanced Television Testing Center for consideration as the US HDTV standard, however a single system was not selected. A consortium of the four digital proponents, called the Grand Alliance (GA), announced a combined system and submitted it to ACATS for consideration. This paper describes the video compression subsystem and the hardware prototype
