ON
VIDEO STANDARDS

Introduction

Video files are collections of images, audio etc..

Every video file has some attributes that describe
what makes up the video signal. These
characteristics include:
a) Frame Size
b) Aspect Ratio
c) Bitrate
d) Audio Sample rate.

Type of Video Signals

Analog Video
a) Composite Video
b) S Video
c) Component Video

(Sync (timing) , Luminance (Black & White) often

called Luma, Chrominance (color) often called
Chroma)
)

Digital Video

Video Standards
1. NTSC (National Television System Committee) /
RS 170A
) 30 frames are Tx per seconds (60 fields/sec)
) Each frame is made up of 525 individual scan
lines
) Interlaced Video
) Used in America (countries having 60Hz Power
Supply)

Video Standards
2. PAL (Phase Alternating Line)
) 25 frames are Tx per seconds (50 fields/sec)
) Each frame is made up of 625 individual scan
lines
) Interlaced Video
) Used in Europe (countries having 50Hz Power
Supply)

3. STANAG 3350 (Analog Video Standard for
Aircraft System Applications)
) STANAG A : 875 Lines, 30Frames/Sec
) STANAG B : 625 Lines, 25 Frames/ Sec
) STANAG C : 525 Lines, 25 Frames/ Sec

Video Standards
4. PC world
) VGA : 640 X 480
) SVGA : 800 X 600
) XGA : 1024 X 800
) SXGA : 1280 X 1024
) UXGA : 1600 X 1200
All VGA standards are Progressive Scan type
Frame Rates variable up to 75Fps

Video Standards
5. RGB
For RGB application following three methods are in
use
) RGB V, H
) RGB Composite Synch
) RGB Synch on Green
For Defense Application Differential RGB is used
