7 Glossary  
U
UHF (Ultra high frequency)  
In radio or TV broadcasting: it is the frequency  
range of electromagnetic waves which lies  
between 300 MHz and 3 GHz (3000 MHz).  
A
Amplifier  
A device, either a single stage or a large scale  
circuit with multiple stages for creating gain,  
i.e. it makes small signals larger.  
V
VHF (Very high frequency)  
Antenna  
In radio or TV broadcasting: it is the frequency  
range of electromagnetic waves which lies  
between 30 MHz and 300 MHz.  
A device, such as a rod or wire, which picks up  
a received radio frequency signal or radiates a  
transmitted RF signal.  
C
Coaxial  
A single copper conductor, surrounded with  
a layer of insulation, covered by a surrounding  
copper shield and finally, an insulating jacket.  
An unbalanced transmission line with constant  
impedance. In audio, this type is commonly  
used for low level, line signals terminated in  
RCA connectors.  
D
DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting)  
DVB is a suite of internationally accepted open  
standards for digital television.  
H
HDTV (High-Definition Television)  
It is a digital television broadcasting system  
with higher resolution than traditional  
television systems (standard-definition TV,  
or SDTV). HDTV is digitally broadcast;  
the earliest implementations used analog  
broadcasting, but today digital television  
(DTV) signals are used, requiring less  
bandwidth due to digital video compression.
