Broadcast Data Systems

Data transmission over TV and radio channels, more popularly known as teletext and RDS, is an increasingly important aspect of modern broadcasting technology. This text bridges the gap between established television and radio practice and the computer technology that is used.

Teletext and the radio data system provide digital communication channels that are combined with the normal television and VHF radio signals. The origination and transmission of these digital signals introduce new equipment and techniques for their implementation in broadcasting systems. This book is intended to bridge the gap between established television and radio practice and the computer technology that is used in these new systems for practising engineers and students.
