Advanced digital high definition television (AD-HDTV) is an all-digital simulcast system that is designed to deliver high-quality HDTV services to a large coverage area through a single 6 MHz terrestrial broadcast channel. The AD-HDTV coding system is described, with emphasis on the unique features added to the emerging ISO Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) coding standard. By building upon a widely accepted coding standard, AD-HDTV ensures a low-cost implementation taking the potential benefits of leveraging ongoing technological advances and VLSI developments. It also facilitates interoperability with other potential consumer electronics applications involving digital HDTV.>
