READY FOR THE NEW TVREVOLUTION
ULTRA HIGHDEFINITION
DIGITAL CINEMA
The digital cinema revolution is now movingtowards 4k (4096 pixels over 2160 lines),which offers an enhanced image on largescreens. Several dozen major feature filmshave been produced using 4k cameras.
ULTRA HD FORMATS & IMPLEMENTATION
Two formats exist in Ultra HD: QuadHDTV/4k TV (3840 pixels over 2160 lines)and 8k TV (7860 pixels over 4320 lines).
Ultra HD will provide an unprecedentedviewing experience, with cinema-like picturequality. Consumer equipment, mainly TV sets,is expected to start reaching the market in2013/ 2014, and on a larger scale from 2015.
The take-off of Ultra HD should be facilitatedby the forthcoming implementation of anew compression standard, HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding).
ULTRA HD VIA SATELLITE
Ultra HD will require significant transmis-sion capacity, that some terrestrial systems will not be able to provide everywhere immediately.
From the 1980s to the 2000s, Eutelsat
has pioneered many innovations in the TV
world: satellite TV, digital TV and 3D TV…
we look forward to assisting with the
advent of Ultra HD!
