Television Standards

Television standards are technical specifications that define how video and audio signals are transmitted, stored, and displayed. They ensure compatibility between TV sets, broadcast stations, and media devices. Common standards include NTSC (used mainly in the Americas), PAL (used in Europe and parts of Asia), and SECAM (used in France and some other countries). These standards specify aspects like frame rate, resolution, and color encoding. Modern digital standards, such as DVB, ATSC, and ISDB, enable high-definition and streaming content. Overall, standards maintain consistent quality and reliable communication across different devices and regions.
