4、n broadcast systemsThe ITU-R has considered alternative means of classifying television systems as a tool for decision makingand to assist studies. Having a well-defined way to describe the systems is a necessary prerequisite to classification.The most practical approach seems to be via a quality-sp

5、ace representation, of the kind shown in Fig. 1. Thesystems will have many facets; basic picture quality, transmission ruggedness, sound capacity etc. However, the corefeature, which can be used to best describe and delineate systems, and agreed criteria, is probably associated with basicpicture qua

6、lity.1. Example of the classification of television systems1.1 High definition televisionHDTV systems are described in Report ITU-R BT.801 as those systems which are essentially transparent to abi-dimensional representation of the real world, when the picture is seen at three times the height of the

7、 screen (3 H).There is no unique psycho-physical basis for translating this definition into quantitative subjective assessment terms.However, this Recommendation proposes that this can be interpreted to mean that subjective assessment results shouldalways fall into the “excellent” band in evaluation

8、s using the double stimulus continuous quality scale method asdescribed in Recommendation ITU-R BT.500. Quality evaluation results should include compensation for the residualerror of the reference. The quality (and therefore definition of HDTV) could lie in a requirement for the quality to bealways

9、 in this (excellent) band.2 Rec. ITU-R BT.11271.2 Enhanced definition televisionEDTV systems can be classified as a system capable of results in the excellent band when the picture is seen ata distance of four times the height of the screen (4 H) as shown in Fig. 1.3 H 4 H 5 H 6 H 7 H 8 H10080604020

12、 by qualityrequirements associated with a viewing distance of 6 H.1.4 Limited definition televisionIt is proposed that limited definition television systems can be characterized by quality requirements associatedwith a viewing distance of 8 H.2. Design viewing distance and preferred viewing distance

13、The design viewing distance (DVD) is the distance at which the subjective assessment of the system should beperformed. Figure 1 shows the partitioning in terms of DVD for the quality levels described above.Associated with this classification of systems by quality and DVD, it may be helpful to be awa

14、re of therelationship between preferred viewing distance (PVD) and screen size. Studies show that PVD is related to the degreeof motion, the absolute eye-screen distance, screen size and programme content among other factors. Figure 2 shows theresults of studies carried out in Italy. These results a

15、re in close agreement with those obtained from similar studiescarried out in the United States of America by SMPTE. Further studies may indicate that the PVD could differ to thosein Fig. 2 due to viewing conditions and experiences in different countries.Rec. ITU-R BT.1127 3Therefore, both concepts s

16、hould be combined to ensure the fair evaluation of the systems concerned, and for afixed PVD, the size of the display used for evaluation using the methodology described in Recommen-dation ITU-R BT.500 should be enlarged to meet the required DVD, if possible.1075438342817123 H 4 H 5 H 6 H 7 H 8 HD02FIGURE 2Preferred viewing distance relationship to 16:9 screen size.The experiments used high definition sources, and areaveraged for a range of programme materialScreen diagonal(in)Preferred viewing distance StillpictureMovingpictureFIGURE 2/BT.1127.D02 = 9.5 CM_
