  1. Analogue and Digital

  2. Digital and Analogue • What change is happening between 2008 and 2012? • List some of the ways that digital TV can be sent. • List two advantages of digital television compared to analogue television. • How are analogue signal sent? • How are digital signals sent?

  3. Analogue Radio

  4. Analogue Signals

  5. Digital Radio

  6. Digital Radio • The sound is ‘sampled’ • The values are send using binary numbers Lets learn to count in binary

  7. Counting in Binary • There are 10 types of people in this world, those that understand binary and those who don’t.

  8. Digital Signals

  9. Are these digital or analogue? • A light switched on or off. • A CD (information stored as hole or no hole) • A light with a dimmer switch. • A continuous variable. • A discrete variable. • An AM radio signal. • A DAB radio signal.

  10. Digital Music • The binary data you are about to see is the result from breaking down 1 millisecond of CD quality music (The Beatles — Let It Be). • 5 seconds worth at the same font size would have taken over 1000 pages, so try to imagine how much data is stored on a CD containing 20 tracks, each 4 minutes long!!!

  11. Advantagesof Digital Signals • Digital signals are less prone to interference than analogue.

  12. Why don’t digital signals suffer from interference?

  13. Advantagesof Digital Signals • Digital signals can be easily be processed by computers. • Text (SMS) messages • Picture (Bitmap) editing • Sound (Wave -.wav) editing • Digital signals are less prone to interference than analogue.

  14. Bitmaps • Jpegs, Gifs and Tiffs are bitmaps. • These are essential ‘paint by numbers’ • The picture is made up of picture elements • Shortened to Pixels • Each pixels has a number associated with it which refers to a colour

  15. Advantagesof Digital Signals • Digital signals can send information faster • More information in the same amount of time • Interactive TV • Digital signals are less prone to interference than analogue. • Digital signals can be easily be processed by computers.

  16. Tele-Text

  17. Multiplexing • We can send digital information quicker than its needed for real time communications • This allows us to use the same wire to send more than one phone call, for example

  18. What are the advantagesof Digital Signals • Digital signals are less prone to interference than analogue. • Digital signals can be easily be processed by computers. • Digital signals can send information faster
