CHAPTER 1

BACKGROUND
OF THE STUDY
I. INTRODUCTION

Digital television (DTV) is the transmission of television signals, including the sound
channel, using digital encoding, in contrast to the earlier television technology, analog
television, in which the video and audio are carried by analog signals. It is an innovative
advance that represents the first significant evolution in television technology since color
television in the 1950s. Digital TV makes more economical use of scarce radio
spectrum space; it can transmit multiple channels in the same bandwidth occupied by a
single channel of analog television, and provides many new features that analog television
cannot. A switchover from analog to digital broadcasting began around 2006 in some
countries, and many industrial countries have now completed the changeover, while other
countries are in various stages of adaptation.

The Philippines uses the American NTSC standard for analog television since color
television arrived in November 1966. The National Telecommunications Commission (NTC)
announced in June 2010 that the Philippines would use the Japanese ISDB-T standard for
digital television, and issued a circular stating that the country's broadcasters must
discontinue their analog services by the transition deadline of 11:59 p.m. (Philippine
Standard Time, UTC+8) on December 31, 2015. But due to delay of the release of the
implementing rules and regulations for digital television broadcast, the target date was moved
on 2020 or April 30, 2023. Preparation for the transition to digital television commenced with
an issuance of Executive Order 546, series of 1979 and Republic Act 3846 or the Radio
Control Law as amended by the local governing body for broadcast services, the NTC
adopted the said order to promulgate rules and regulations in order to facilitate the entry of
digital broadcast services in the Philippines and implement a specific standard for the delivery
of DTT services.

Subsequently organizing two technical working groups for the purpose of directing the
governing body in the selection of appropriate DTT standard and upon the commendation of
investors in the broadcast business, comprising the local broadcasters group, the Kapisanan
ng mga Brodkaster ng Pilipinas, and the NTC, issued Memorandum Circular 02-06-2010 on
June 11, 2010, implementing the standard for digital terrestrial television broadcast service.

OVERVIEW OF THE
SITE

-9-
I. OVERVIEW THE PROVINCE
A) Brief Description

Negros Occidental Province is situated in the west and north of Negros Island,
neighboring Visayan Sea in the north, Tanon Strait and Negros Oriental Province in the
east, Panay Gulf and Guimaras Strait in the west and Sulu Sea in the south. As the 7th
largest province in the country, it boasts a total landmass of 7,926.1 square kilometers.
There are plains and slight slopes in the north and west, and a range of mountains in the
east.

The province consists of 13 cities, 20 municipalities and 661 barangays, with its
capital named Bacolod. The population is 2,497,261(data of 2015), the 7th largest of the
country. The mainly used languages are Hiligaynon and Cebuano.

The major industries are sugar manufacturing, fishery, copper mining and cottage
industry. The province enjoys such fame as "the Sugar Bowl of the Philippines", and the
sugar manufacturing is the mainstay of its economy. It has 15 sugar mills, with Victorias
Mill being the world's largest integrated sugar mill and refinery. A fishing industry is found
in Cadiz City, and other fishponds dot the province. One of the country's largest copper
mines is located in Sipalay City. There also exists a cottage industry which produced
handicrafts made from indigenous materials.

B) Brief History of Negros Occidental

Negritos, Malayans and Chinese have long inhabited the island of Negros before
the 1565 expedition of Miguel Lopez de Legaspi. Because of the strong current of the
channel between the islands of Cebu and Negros, the Spaniards were forced to land on
the Occidental side. This island was called Buglas by the natives, but because the
Spaniards saw many black inhabitants, they named it Negros.

The Spaniards considered the island of Negros as one province with Bacolod as
the Capital. In 1856 it was changed to a politico-military district. Constant pirate raids,

- 10
-
very poor defenses and the distance of the important towns from the capital caused
thirteen Recollect priests to petition for the division of the Island.

After thirteen years, on January 1890 a royal decree prompted the Governor
General ValerianoWeyler to establish Negros Oriental as a district and a separate
political unit with Dumaguete as capital. When the Philippine Revolution, which broke
out in 1896, reached the province in 1898, the functions of the government were
disrupted by the bloodshed and chaos. Unfortunately, it was at this time that Gen.
Pantaleon Villegas (Leon Kilat) of Bacong, one of our fabled revolutionary leaders was
treacherouslymurdered in Cebu.

In the last quarter of 1898, Negros Oriental was stirred into action to support the
revolution. Inspired and organized under the strong and able leadership of Don Diego
de la Vina, an army composed primarily of farm laborers, marched to Dumaguete to
liberate it.

In 1901 the civil government was established under Don Demetrio Larena as
Governor. In 1934 Negros Oriental became a corregimiento, a separate military district.
After 10 years of transition or Commonwealth period, independence for Philippines was
promised on July 4, 1946.

Four delegates from Negros Oriental were sent to the Constitutional Convention.
The economic condition in the Philippines was good. Negros Oriental was directly
benefited as a producer of sugar and copra. Forest resources were vast and sawmill
acquired modern machineries. This was complemented with reforestation. Abundance
of marine life especially in the southern portion attracted big Japanese fishermen with
better equipment.

The Bais Sugar Central was constructed to manufacture centrifugal sugar and
alcohol. Under the American regime, roads were improved and bridges were built.
Transportation companies sprung up and limited Cebu lines were in operation. News of

- 11
-
the bombing of Pearl Harbor started preparations by Filipinos and Americans against
Japanese aggression with emergency committees and agencies.

On May 26, 1942 the Japanese landed in a deserted Dumaguete whose


residents had fled to the mountains. In their evacuation sites, residents made a
concerted effort to become self sufficient. President Manuel L. Quezon, escaping from
possible capture during WW II came to Dumaguete enroute to Northern Mindanao.

Through the USAFFE forces, 75th Infantry Regiment and the American Forces,
the Japanese were defeated on August 6, 1945. Thus rehabilitation of a devastated
province and economy started. People joined forces to achieve this goal. Municipal
governments were started. Schools were reopened and the economy flourished. Under
different governors, Negros Oriental developed into what it is now. Industries have
increased, crops have been diversified. With the opening of the Geothermal Power
Plant in Puhagan Valencia, Negros Oriental has improved its industrial potential in
opening more plants and sugar mills.

One hundred years after its founding in 1890, Negros Oriental celebrated its
Centennial in 1990 with a bang. Yearlong activities commemorated this momentous
event. Tourism has increased and the province now moves towards a more energetic
future in terms of its economy with a 10-year development plan.

II. TOPOGRAPHY

The province is characterized by low but serrated mountain ranges, most parts are close to
the shoreline. The highest mountain is Canlaon Volcano at a peak of 2,465 meters. It is an active
volcano that marks the northern boundary of Negros Oriental and Negros Occidental.

Negros Occidental is located in the western side of Negros Island, the fourth largest island in
the Philippines with a total land area of 792,607 hectares or 7,926.06 sq. kms. The province is
approximately 375 kilometers long from north to south.

It is bounded by the Visayan Sea in the north, Panay Gulf on the west, Tanon Strait and
Negros Oriental province on the east and Sulu Sea on the south. Negros is basically volcanic,
making its soil ideal for agriculture. Eighty percent of all arable land is cultivated.

III. WEATHER CONDITIONS

Negros Occidental's climate is generally pleasant with a dry season from December to May
and rainy season from June to November.
The warmest months are April and May and the coolest are from December to February. The
average temperature is 26 degrees C/80 degrees F.

Sagay, officially the City of Sagay, is a 2nd class city in the Philippines, in
the province of Negros Occidental, Philippines. According to the 2015 census, it has a population of
146,264 people.

Sagay can be identified in the map of Negros Occidental because of its "ice-cream cone"
shape sliced from the northern tip of Negros. It is bounded in the north by Asuncion Pass and
the Visayan Sea; the City of Talisay and Municipality of Calatrava in the south; cities
of Cadiz and Silay in the west and the City of Escalante and Municipality of Toboso in the east.

24
The name of the city comes from the semi-spherical shell called "sigay", which can be found
in the area.

 Stand-by power equipment should be provided at


microwave terminals or active repeater locations to maintain
system operation in the event of a commercial power failure.
 The stand-by power source may be batteries, engine-
generator or in some cases thermoelectric generator, fuel
cell or solar energy.

VII. STUDIO CONSIDERATIONS


 Sound Isolation
- Should be considering the internal and external noise
sources, which can be greatly affecting the noise levels
in building.
 Site Selection
- The required internal and external noise climate in
broadcasting studio set up depends a lot on the site
location.
- All the perceived noise levels in a chosen site depend
on the intensity of the noise source and should be
measured to a certain range of the background sound
levels.
 Site Planning
- There should be proper orientation of the building to
reduce noise exposure of occupied and critical spaces.

29
- The noise sensitive spaces such as studios should be
placed as far away as possible from external and
internal noise sources.
 General Purpose and theatre Type Studios
Size
- Has a large volume up to for participants, furniture and
apparatus.
- A maximum clear height over the working part of the
studio of 26ft must be provided to elaborate the
lighting grid and the cyclorama scenery gear.

II. REVERBERATION TIME


A measure if the acoustic properties of a room, equal to the time taken for
a sound to fall in intensity by 60 dB. It is usually measured in seconds. Tendency
for the sound to persist over definite period of time after it has been produced
originally and stopped the source.

𝑉
RT60 = Where: RT60 = Reverberation Time
20𝐴
V = Volume of the space

A = Total absorption of space surface

ISO 3382-2:2008 specifies methods for the measurement of reverberation time in ordinary
rooms. It describes the measurement procedure, the apparatus needed, the required number of
measurement positions, and the method for evaluating the data and presenting the test report.

The measurement results can be used for correction of other acoustic measurements, e.g. sound
pressure level from sound sources or measurements of sound insulation, and for comparison with
requirements for reverberation time in rooms.

I. NETWORK ARCHITECTURE

Fig. 5.1 Network Architecture

The Audio and Video signals are converted to SDI (Serial Digital Interface) signal. This
SDI signal is coded and compressed in MPEG-4 becoming a Transport Stream(TS). The TS
packet has 188 Bytes made up of the HEADER and PAYLOAD. This TS packet will be fed to
a remultiplexer. The input MPEG-4 Streams will be processed and transformed into either
another MPEG-4 Stream Format or a proprietary vendor-specific stream format. Then it will be
fed on a DVB Scrambler. This is done to enable accurate timing recovery on receiver
equipment without resorting to redundant line coding. It facilitates the work of a timing recovery
circuit, an automatic gain control and other adaptive circuits of the receiver (eliminating long
sequences consisting of '0' or '1' only). And that is where the Headend Part stops. Then for the
transmission, the signal from the DBV scrambler will be fed to the DTTV modulator/exciter and
then to an RF Amplifier. After amplifying the signals, it will be fed to a Directional Coupler to
combine the signals, usually a 4-way channel combiner is use. The signal will then be fed to
the RF Band Pass Filter then to the Transmitter then ready for transmission. The signal will be
transmitted through air and will be receive by the antennas of the receiving costumers. Signal
will pass the Costumer’s Set Top Box for turning the source signal into content in a form that
then be displayed on the television screen.

II. COVERAGE AREA
The coverage area was determined by using an online software called Nautel RF
Tool that was recommended by our instructor. The areas with white spots inside the
coverage areas still have signals.

Fig. 5.4 Reverberation Time Graph

This graph shows that studio 1 has the set of lower values of reverberation
times while Studio 3 has set of higher values than Studio 1. This graph also shows that
Studio 2 has higher set of values among the three studios. The greater the volume of a
studio, the higher the reverberation time. Volume and area affects the value of
reverberation time and volume affects the absorption coefficient of a certain material.
