  • In order to transmit the sound signal digitally, the C-MAC system which uses the BPSK or QPSK modulation was initially considered.
  • But later on this idea was discarded because it requires a very large bandwidth of 12 MHz, instead of D2-MAC system which uses the duo-binary coding for sound was selected.
  • The duo-binary coding is useful for reducing the bandwidth required for the digital sound.
  • In D2-MAC system for the transmission luminance and colour difference signal TDM is used, the signals are not sent simultaneously but they are sent sequential one after another.

  • In D2-MAC, the analog video and digital sound are multiplexed before modulation. The modulation of subcarrier will take place after that.
  • It is possible to use AM/VSB for cable TV and FM for satellite broadcasting.
  • The duo-binary uses three levels of signals instead of two and reduces the bandwidth requirement by 50%.

Characteristics of D2-MAC:

1. Lines per image 625
2. Lines with data burst 1 to 625
3. Lines with video signal 24 to 310 and 336 to 622
4. Lines with luminance signal Y in every line
5. Lines with chrominance signal U on odd lines, Von the even lines
6. Ratio of interlace 2 : 1
7. Aspect ratio 4 : 3/(5.33 : 3)
8. Ratio of luma compression 3 : 2
9. Ratio of Chroma compression 3 : 1
10. Sampling frequency 20-25 MHz
11. Instantaneous bit rate 10.125 Mbps
12. Samples per line 1296
13. Samples for luminance 349
14. Samples for luminance 697
15. Bits per data burst 105(6 bits H sync. + 99 data bits)
