A digital TV converter box. A digital television adapter (DTA), commonly known as a converter box or decoder box, is a television tuner that receives a digital television (DTV) transmission, and converts the digital signal into an analog signal that can be received and displayed on an analog television set.
Generally use coaxial cable types such as RG-6 and RG-59 (except for twin-lead). Belling-Lee/IEC 169-2 connector TV aerial plug (a.k.a. antenna plug) Television antenna connection for most video devices outside North America. Used by early home computers and game consoles to connect them to TVs because of the lack of any other connector.
A chirp is a signal in which the frequency increases (up-chirp) or decreases (down-chirp) with time. In some sources, the term chirp is used interchangeably with sweep signal . [ 1 ] It is commonly applied to sonar , radar , and laser systems, and to other applications, such as in spread-spectrum communications (see chirp spread spectrum ).
Belling-Lee connectors Flex Type F connectors. A TV aerial plug is a connector used to connect coaxial cables with each other and with terrestrial VHF/UHF roof antennas, antenna signal amplifiers, CATV distribution equipment, TV sets and FM / DAB-radio receivers.
A Digital transport/terminal adapter (or DTA) is a device used by cable companies who are switching to all-digital cable systems. They typically have an RF input for receiving service, and a modulated output on Channel 3 or 4 that allows a TV to be set to channel 3 or 4 and have the tuner change channels.
A double DIN 1.6/5.6 bulkhead jack connector, crimp type, for 75 Ω coaxial cable A Type N connector (male), right-angled solder-type for semi-rigid coaxial cable with a diameter of 0.141-inch. 4.1-9.5 connector, standardized as DIN 47231 (in 1974) and IEC 60169-11 (in 1977) 4.3-10 connector, formerly known as DIN 4.3/10, now standardized as ...
The F connector was invented by Eric E. Winston in the early 1950s while working for Jerrold Electronics on their development of cable television. [1] In the 1970s, it became commonplace on VHF, and later UHF, television antenna connections in the United States, as coaxial cables replaced twin-lead. It is now specified in IEC 61169-24:2019. [2]
In digital communications, chirp spread spectrum (CSS) is a spread spectrum technique that uses wideband linear frequency modulated chirp pulses to encode information. [1] A chirp is a sinusoidal signal whose frequency increases or decreases over time (often with a polynomial expression for the relationship between time and frequency).
