Abstract :
Digital broadcasting is the distribution of audio and/or video signals which transmit programs to an audience. The era of total digital broadcasting, from program production to digital receivers, will soon be upon us as a result of advances in image compression technology, higher integration and improved performance in LSI devices, and the rapid progress in digital technologies including the development of digital transmission systems. Super Turnstile Antenna is preferred which is dipole equivalent to a slotted sheet about 0.7 lambda to 0.5 lambda. Television and radio programs are distributed through radio broadcasting or cable, often both simultaneously. By coding signals and having decoding equipment in homes, the latter also enables subscription-based channels and pay-per-view services.
