Evolution of Digital Television Standards

Digital television broadcasting had a long way from the initial ideas to practical implementation and further development. The actual implementation began with the first-generation standards ATSC, DVB, ISDB in the late 1990s of the last century. The structure of these systems subsequently required development in connection with the growth of new needs for high and ultra-high definition television, as well as technologies such as high frame rate, expanded color gamut, and high dynamic range, which led to the emergence of a new generation of standards. This generation continues to be deployed in different countries around the world. New challenges require further development and improvement of digital television broadcasting systems.
