the road to enhanced pictures While UHD itself is still in the very early stages of rolling out for both production and transmission, broadcasters and particularly the new breed of entertainment distribution services, notably Netflix and Amazon Prime, are looking at techniques to further enhance and improve the viewing experience. UHD has already brought us more pixels. The next logical step is not any additional pixels but better pixels that give a picture with more definition and, most important of all, improved colour reproduction and a higher dynamic range. Which is why the initials HDR (high dynamic range) and WCG (wide colour gamut) have been challenging those of UHD for prominence on booths at trade shows and in new TV sets advertisements. By extending the dynamic range, more information can be accommodated in an image, bringing with it more dynamics In 1982 the predecessor of the Radiocommunications section of the ITU (International Telecommunications Union) issued Recommendation BT.1 (Rec.1 or BT.1). This set out the colour space for standard definition images in 525-line Hz and 625-line 50Hz broadcasting, using YCbCr 4:2:2 coding. BT.1 was superseded by BT.709, which was approved for HD, widescreen (:9 aspect ratio) TV in 1990. This is based on 1980-lines and produces more colours than 1 but is nothing to get excited about. It has a fairly small colour palette in terms of what the human eye can see. The big jump came with BT.2020, which appeared in 2012 and lays out parameters for UHD. This covers two resolutions: 3840x20, otherwise known as 4k, and 7680x4320, or 8k, which forms the basis of NHK s Super Hi-Vision TV system. The technical challenge behind this is the move from the HDTV colour space (BT.709) to the colour space for UHD plus HDR and WCG (BT.2020). In doing this we are going from a relatively small area with a maximum brightness/luminance of 100 nits, all represented in the well-know 10-bit YUV definition that is used in broadast. Compared to BT.709, BT.2020 has a much larger colour space to work in and up to 10,000 nits, but as broadcasters want/need to be able to continue to use their existing infrastructure, we still need to code this in the same 10- bit YUV infrastructure. A 1D is quite easy and basic, with brightness and tones in conveyed in. A 3D is more complicate as can be seen in the image below. IN OUT 80 85 75 80 85 75 70 90 95 75 80 50 80 100 105 95 80 105 75 90 110 115 105 80 70 80 105 85 100 120 125 115 3D IN OUT 80 80 70 80 80 80 85 80 80 80 80 70 85 90 80 95 100 80 80 70 70 80 70 90 90 95 100 85 80 100 105 90 80 70 100 105 90 in luminance to an image. In a similar way WCG allows more vibrant colours to be displayed because it can store a wider range of colour values than established (Red Green Blue) colour spaces. Curves Since the publication of CIE 1931 and CIE 1931 XYZ, a succession of colour spaces and curves has appeared, each tailored to either the requirements of broadcast/film technology at the time or a specific application. It also specifies bit-depths of either 10-bits per sample or 12- bits per sample. BT.2020 comes much closer to the capability of the human eye but takes up only a relatively small proportion of the CIE 1931 colour space. What is the new challenge? If broadcasters implement both HDR and WCG it has to be in best possible way. This is necessary so we can preserve our precious industry. To do this properly, and be able to compete on a level playing field with competition from new media platforms, there can be no compromise. The whole issue becomes even more complicated if WCG is part of the equation. Higher dynamic range with some sort of backwards compatibility is only possible when everything is working remains in the same colour space. But because the broadcast market has to be part of the real world, services will have to include WCG, which will mean the whole issue of backwards compatibility in practice is down the drain. Making the changes Going from one colour space to another and dealing with different dynamic range systems is challenging. Fortunately there is a long established technique for this involving look-up tables (s). A is a list of parameters - a row of numbers - with an input and an output. It tells you that if you go in with a number, you have to come out with a different number. A has to be made for the different colours. So a single would consist of s for R, G and B. The ultimate goal is to maintain equal and realistic skin colours. If skin colours start to shift any problems with the colour become immediately very apparent. The human eye is very perceptive to skin colour changes. A further complication is that s are handled in a domain. This means a matrix is needed to convert from YCrCB to. By taking the colour corrector in one of our cards, the incoming YCrCB signal is converted into, colour corrected and then outputted as YCrCB using an inverse matrix. The problem is that the matrix going from YCrCB to is different in BT.709 and in BT.2020, calling for two conversion matrices. Because of this the source has to be clearly identified. Axon produces a number of cards that are able to convert the various colour spaces and s while at the same time working with HDR and WCG. The UXU400-410 is designed to convert from HD (SDR709) to UHD (HDR2020) and back. This card is derived from the GXG400 and is field upgradeable from the GXG400 to the UXU. A standard set of s are included, along with a piggyback PCB for storing the presets. A selection of presets is available, allowing many different s to be held on the card. These can be switched on the fly, with the ability to use split screen mode to compare and see what is going in and out. The U4T200-240 is designed as a lower cost down-converter. It features a Dolby Vision decoder with four-wire interface to go from and to HDR. 4 5
