An analog television transmitter can be thought of as two separate transmitters integrated into a common cabinet. Video information is transmitted via a visual transmitter, while audio information is transmitted via an aural transmitter. Because video and audio have different characteristics, the two transmitters differ in terms of bandwidth, modulation technique, and output power level. Nevertheless, a common transmitting antenna is generally used, and the two transmitters feed this antenna via an rf diplexer or combiner.A digital transmitter accepts a single encoded digital bit stream that may contain video, audio, and data. In the United States, the digital terrestrial transmission standard is known as 8-VSB, which is an eight-level, vestigal sideband format. The FCC has mandated that all U.S. television stations convert to difital and terminate analog transmissions.
