This appendix provides information on broadcast and cable television NTSC and PAL/SECAM standards and frequencies used around the world.

There are three standards for transmitting video. They are defined by the method of encoding color onto a monochrome signal. The methods are defined as:

•NTSC—National Television System Committee

NTSC is the current standard used for analog television in the United States and elsewhere. NTSC supports color television transmission in a 6-MHz channel bandwidth and has 525 interlaced scan lines. Two fields are interlaced to make one frame with a frame rate of 29.97 frames per second and a field rate of 59.94 fields per second. A fraction (approximately 8 percent) of the available bandwidth is used for signal synchronization between the transmitter and the receiver, giving an effective resolution of 640x480. The aspect ratio, or ratio of picture width to picture height, is 4:3.

•PAL—Phase Alternating Line

PAL is a composite color system similar to NTSC. In PAL, however, the color difference signals alternate phase at the horizontal line rate. PAL video consists of a 625-line frame, a frame rate of 25 Hz, and a field rate of 50 Hz. As with NTSC, approximately 8 percent of the available bandwidth is used for synchronization yielding an effective resolution of 768x576. The aspect ratio is 4:3. The PAL standard and its variants are used primarily in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, Brazil, and Argentina.

•SECAM—SEquential Couleur Avec Memoire

SECAM is a color television broadcasting system using 625 picture lines and a 50-hertz (Hz) field rate, in which the two color-difference signals are transmitted sequentially instead of simultaneously.

NTSC information is covered in Table E-4 and Table E-5. General PAL/SECAM information is covered in Table E-6. Use the information in Table E-1, Table E-2, and Table E-3 to compare analog television standards used around the world.

Standards Comparisons

The following tables (Table E-1, Table E-2, and Table E-3) include data from Recommendation ITU-R BT.470.6, Conventional Television Systems (1998) and provide a comparison of the different standards.

PAL/SECAM Cable Television Channels and Relative Frequencies

Table E-6 provides information on the Phase Alternating Line (PAL) and SEquential Couleur Avec Memoire (SECAM) frequency map for standard 7- and 8-MHz channel bands in Europe.

The FCS (reference subaltern frequency) for color integration is different for different countries. Also, the channel and frequency designations are different for different countries. For a summary of the ITU designations for PAL and SECAM systems and Recommendation ITU-R BT.470.6 standards, refer to Table E-1, Table E-2, and Table E-3. These tables provide general information that may help determine frequency allocations for specific countries. Table E-6 is a frequency allocation table for PAL B and G locations. Also note that some countries use different schemes for VHF and UHF.

More information can be found at the Websites listed on page E-1.
