Drive through rural areas b
2、eyond the reach of the cable companies and youll find dishes on just about every house. The major satellite television companies are bringing in more customers every day with the lure of movies, sporting events and news from around the world.The Broadcast TV ProblemConceptually, satellite television
3、 is, a lot like broadcast television. Its a wireless system for delivering television programming directly to a viewers house. Both broadcast television and satellite stations transmit programming via a radio signal. Broadcast stations use a powerful antenna to transmit radio waves to the surroundin
4、g area. Viewers can pick up the signal with a much smaller antenna.The main limitation of broadcast television is range. The radio signals used to broadcast television shoot out from the broadcast antenna in a straight line. In order to receive these signals, you have to be in the direct “line of si
5、ght“ of the antenna. One problem is that the Earth is curved, so it eventually breaks the signals line of site. The other problem with broadcast television is that the signal is often distorted even in the viewing area. To get a perfectly clear signal like you find on cable, you have to be pretty cl
6、ose to the broadcast antenna without too many obstacles in the way.The Satellite TV SolutionSatellite television solves the problems of range and distortion by transmitting broadcast signals from satellites orbiting the Earth. Since satellites are high in the sky, there are a lot more customers in t
7、he line of site. Satellite television systems transmit and receive radio signals using specialized antennas called satellite dishes.The television satellites are all in geosynchronous orbit, meaning that they stay in one place in the sky relative to the Earth. Each satellite is launched into space a
8、t about 7,000 mph (11,000kph), reaching approximately 22,200 miles (35,700km) above the Earth. At this speed and altitude, the satellite will revolve around the planet once every 24 hoursthe same period of time it takes the Earth to make one full rotation. In other words, the satellite keeps pace wi
9、th our moving planet exactly. This way, you only have to direct the dish at the satellite once, and from then on it picks up the signal without adjustment, at least when everything works right.The Overall SystemEarly satellite TV viewers were explorers of sorts. They used their expensive dishes to d
10、iscover unique programming that wasnt necessarily intended for mass audiences. The dish and receiving equipment gave viewers the tools to pick up foreign stations, live feeding between different broadcast stations, NASA activities and a lot of other stuff transmitted using satellites.Some satellite
11、owners still seek out this sort of programming on their own, but today, most satellite TV customers get their programming through a direct broadcast satellite (DBS) provider, such as Direct TV or the Dish Network. The provider selects programs and broadcasts them to subscribers as a set package. Bas
12、ically, the providers goal is to bring dozens or even hundreds of channels to your television in a form that approximates the competition, cable TV. Unlike earlier programming, the providers broadcast is completely digital, which means it has much better picture and sound quality. Early satellite te
13、levision was broadcast in C-band radioradio in the 3.4-gigabertz (GHz) to 7-GHz frequency range. Digital broadcast satellite transmits programming in the Ku frequency range (12 GHz to 14 GHz ).The ProgrammingSatellite TV providers get programming from two major sources: national turnaround channels
14、(such as HBO, ESPN and CNN) and various local channels (NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS and Fox affiliates in a particular area). Most of the turnaround channels also provide programming for cable television, and the local channels typically broadcast their programming over the airwaves.Turnaround channels usual
15、ly have a distribution centre that beams their programming to a geostationary satellite. The broadcast centre uses large satellite dishes to pick up these analogs and digital signals from several sources.The broadcast centre converts all of this programming into a high-quality, uncompressed digital
16、stream. At this point, the stream contains a vast quantity of dataabout 270 megabits per second (Mbps) for each channel. In order to transmit the signal from there, the broadcast centre has to compress it. Otherwise, it would be too big for the satellite to handle.Compression, Encryption and Transmi
17、ssionThe two major providers in the United States use the MPEG-2 compressed video formatthe same format used to store movies on DVDs. With MPEG-2 compression, the provider can reduce the 270-Mbps stream to about 5 or 10 Mbps (depending on the type of programming). This is the crucial step that has m
18、ade DBS service a success. With digital compression, a typical satellite can transmit about 200 channels. Without digital compression, it can transmit about 30 channels.At the broadcast centre, the high-quality digital stream of video goes through an MPEG-2 encoder, which converts the programming to
19、 MPEG-2 video of the correct size and format for the satellite receiver in your house.After the video is compressed, the provider needs to encrypt it in order to keep people from accessing it for free. Encryption scrambles the digital data in such a way that it can only be decrypted (converted back
20、into usable data) if the receiver has the correct decryption algorithm and security keys.Once the signal is compressed and encrypted, the broadcast centre beams it directly to one of its satellites. The satellite picks up the signal with an onboard dish, amplifies the signal and uses another dish to
21、 beam the signal back to the Earth, where viewers can pick it up.The Dish and the ReceiverA satellite dish is just a special kind of antenna designed to focus on a specific broadcast source. The standard dish consists of a parabolic (bowl-shaped) surface and a central feed horn. To transmit a signal
22、, a controller sends it through the horn, and the dish focuses the signal into a relatively narrow beam.The end component in the entire satellite TV system is the receiver. The receiver has four essential jobs:It de-scrambles the encrypted signal. In order to unlock the signal, the receiver needs th
23、e proper decoder chip for that programming package.It takes the digital MPEG-2 signal and converts it into an analog format that a standard television can recognize. In the United States, receivers convert the digital signal to the analog NTSC format. Some dish and receiver setups can also output an
24、 HDTV signal.It extracts the individual channels from the larger satellite signal. When you change the channel on the receiver, it sends just the signal for that channel to your TV.It keeps track of pay-per-view programs and periodically phones a computer at the providers headquarters to communicate
25、 billing information.While digital broadcast satellite service is still lacking some of the basic features of conventional cable (the ability to easily split signals between different TVs and VCRs, for example), its high-quality picture, varied programming selection and extended service areas make i
26、t a good alternative for some. With the rise of digital cable, which also has improved picture quality and extended channel selection, the TV war is really heating up.（分数：70.00）(1).Broadcast stations use _to transmit radio waves to the surrounding area.（分数：7.00）A.a powerful antennaB.a much smaller a
