8、 15/6) (2005-2006-2009) Foreword This Report has been prepared by Radiocommunication Study Group (SG) 6 and Radiocommunication Task Group (TG) 6/9, and contains information gathered from a number of external sources as well as from Radiocommunication TG 6/9. The terminology used throughout this Repo

9、rt is not consistent, other bodies such as, Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE)1, and European Digital Cinema Forum (EDCF)2and technical publications, have used different terms in their deliberations to the terms adopted by Radiocommunication TG 6/9 in defining large screen di

10、gital imagery (LSDI). Further, it is not appropriate to draw comparisons between various definitions. This Report retains the original text provided by the various sources. The reader is cautioned not to draw any conclusions on the eventual adoption of terminology within this evolving industry. 1 In

11、troduction Radiocommunication TG 6/9 was formed by SG 6 in 2002 as a result of the adoption of ITU-R Question 15/6 “Digital cinema (D-Cinema) broadcasting”. Dr Joseph Flaherty of the North American Broadcasting Association (NABA) chaired the task group. Radiocommunication TG 6/9 held its first meeti

12、ng in March 2002. Some questions were raised concerning the scope of the task group; and it was concluded that aspects specifically relating to motion pictures (movies) should be based on standards developed by the motion picture expert groups. As a result, a revised Question was prepared and subseq

13、uently adopted, and the term “large-scale digital imagery (LSDI)” has been employed to describe the area of work of the task group. The revised Question is attached as Appendix 1. This Report is intended to supplement the set of Recommendations prepared by the task group, giving a brief summary of L

14、SDI and the work of the task force and providing detailed information on LSDI technology and LSDI applications. A progress report on standardization for digital cinema is also included. 2 What is LSDI? Large screen digital imagery (LSDI) is a family of digital imagery systems applicable to programme

15、s such as dramas, plays, sporting events, concerts, cultural events, etc., from capture to large screen presentation in high-resolution quality in appropriately equipped theatres, halls, and other venues. There may be many types and sizes of LSDI venues and audiences, but audiences larger than typic

16、al family viewing, using display systems larger than those that would normally be considered for a home environment, characterize LSDI. 1See digital cinema Specification V1.0 as submitted to the SMPTE at . 2See definitions of the EDCF four levels in 1 of Chapter 3 of Part 2. 2 Rep. ITU-R BT.2053-2 L

17、SDI became practical as a result of the development of electronic display systems suitable for viewing by an audience of significant size. Such display systems evolved in a number of areas. Some systems were designed to display very large albeit relatively low resolution images for viewing at long d

18、istances by very large audiences, such as in sports venues. Other systems were developed by the computer and audio/video (A/V) industries to facilitate presentation of electronic slides to smaller audiences in business environments. Eventually, these developments led to display systems that could pr

19、oduce an audience experience comparable to that delivered by projection of 35 mm motion picture film, and the concept of digital cinema was born. It soon became apparent that the evolving technologies could serve two very different areas of requirements. The motion picture industry intends to develo

20、p systems to replace the distribution and projection of 35-mm film prints. In this area it is vitally important to preserve characteristics of film that differentiate it from television, including extended colour gamut and very large contrast range. These considerations meant that the motion picture

21、 industry needed to undertake extensive studies based on the unique requirements of the business. Another area of great interest is the use of LSDI to permit presentation of television programming to large audiences, such as in theatres. Obvious examples are sports events and concerts or other stage

22、 productions. In this area it is essential that the characteristics of LSDI systems be closely matched to the television systems that are likely to be used to acquire the programmes 3 LSDI venues LSDI is suited to any venue where electronically delivered moving images are to be displayed for an audi

23、ence. Such venues may range from community television halls to stadium environments while the audience size may range from few persons to many tens of thousands. Some of the many possible LSDI venues, and ways in which they may be used, are discussed in Chapter 7 of Part 1. The work of the task grou

24、p focused largely on LSDI for theatrical environments. It was recognized that even this classification may include venues of many sizes and characteristics, but emphasis was given to venues where audiences could receive a “big-screen” experience. The LSDI sound system should have characteristics com

25、mensurate with this, so as to enhance the overall audience experience. Generally, the LSDI experience should represent a significant enhancement over conventional television, even large-screen television. Recommendation ITU-R BT.1690 describes such a theatrical environment in perceptual terms. 4 Vid

26、eo signal formats for LSDI The task group developed two Recommendations for baseband video formats for LSDI. Recommendation ITU-R BT.1680 recommends the use of Recommendation ITU-R BT.709 (1 920 1 080 at various frame rates, interlaced and progressive) and Recommendation ITU-R BT.1543 (1 280 720 at

27、59.94 Hz, progressive). It further recommends that for an expanded hierarchy of LSDI digital image formats for future LSDI applications that may require certain resolution and scanning formats that go beyond current technical solutions or those image formats used in other applications a hierarchical

28、 relationship with existing Recommendations be retained. For applications where high-definition signals are not available, Recommendation ITU-R BT.1689 recommends the use of Recommendation ITU-R BT.601 (720 576/480 at 50/59.94 Hz). Rep. ITU-R BT.2053-2 3 Programme material for LSDI will normally nee

29、d to be compressed for delivery to the venue; Recommendation ITU-R BT.1687 recommends the use of MPEG-2. This Recommendation suggests that LSDI applications will generally need higher bit rates than those used for delivery of television to the home. Recommendation ITU-R BT.1687 recommends “MPEG-2 in

30、terframe bit-rate reduction at MPHL (HiQ) and at a minimum video net bit rate of the order of 20 Mbit/s should be preferred in the short term, for real-time distribution of LSDI programmes for their theatrical presentation.” 5 Audio for LSDI The task group recognized that high-quality, multichannel

31、audio is an essential component of presentation in an LSDI environment. Recommendation ITU-R BT.1688 recommends a delivery of 5.1 channel audio as part of LSDI programming, and the use of 48 kHz sampling at a minimum 16-bit resolution, and the use of either baseband PCM, AC-3, or AAC encoding. Some

32、LSDI applications for a large theatrical environment may need multichannel sound systems that can reproduce the sound sources, which are localized at a higher position over the listener, and vertical and horizontal movements of sound sources. Several multichannel sound systems are currently applied

33、or studied for a theatre with a large screen, and some of them have loudspeakers arranged above and around the viewer. 6 Quality considerations for LSDI Audiences will have high expectations for LSDI and the quality of the presentation will be critical to success in many areas. Recommendation ITU-R

34、BT.1662 discusses issues of post-processing headroom in the LSDI chain. Recommendation ITU-R BT.1663 addresses display quality; Recommendation ITU-R BT.1686 covers measurement of image parameters, and Recommendation ITU-R BT.1721 makes recommendations for measurement of perceptive image quality. Rec

35、ommendation ITU-R BT.1679 addresses subjective evaluation of audio quality in LSDI environments. A study on psychological effects of wide-screen display systems confirms that wider viewing angles generate higher “sensation of reality”. It also implies that LSDI with higher resolution than HDTV would

36、 be needed for applications that require a higher “sensation of reality”. On the other hand, it is known that decreases of comfortableness would arise when the viewing position is too close to wide-screen images. Based on such results, parameter values for expanded hierarchy of LSDI systems such as

37、display size, viewing distance and spatial resolution might be determined. 7 Delivery of LSDI content Traditional broadcast channels such as terrestrial transmission will not generally deliver LSDI content. The large screen will make impairments such as compression artefacts more apparent, and lower

38、 compression ratios will normally be needed for LSDI. Real-time delivery of LSDI will normally use broadband terrestrial circuits or satellite systems. Recommendation ITU-R BT.1727 addresses these forms of delivery. Non-real-time delivery may use similar circuits, or may use tapes or disks. Recommen

39、dation ITU-R BT.1694 makes recommendations for the use of videocassette recordings. 4 Rep. ITU-R BT.2053-2 8 LSDI technologies and implementations Current and future LSDI technologies are both discussed in Part 1, which consists of eight Chapters related to the various components of the LSDI chain.

40、Part 2 includes available information on the status of implementations of LSDI applications around the world and future LSDI trends. It is divided into three Chapters, one for each region covered by relevant investigations, namely America (North and South), Asia and Europe. 9 Digital cinema A progre
