HDTV 1080 (1080 lines of resolution, 16:9 aspect ratio) HDTV 720 (720 lines of resolution, 16:9 aspect ratio) SDTV (480 lines of resolution, 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratio)

United States major market television stations began transmitting DTV in the fall of 1998. The number of new DTV stations are increasing every month. By the year 2008, all United States television stations will be converted to DTV.

HDTV is the biggest breakthrough in broadcasting since color TV. It offers wider pictures with greater detail and the clarity of motion pictures. Compared to standard television (NTSC), the true HDTV image has twice the luminance definition - vertically and horizontally - and is twenty-five percent wider. Standard television aspect ratio is 4:3 (four units wide, three units high) - the HDTV aspect ratio is 16:9. The 16:9 ratio is much closer to the average wide-screen image shown in movie theaters. The biggest difference, and the greatest appeal of HDTV, is its clarity. True HDTV pictures are composed of 1080 active lines (1125 total) where as current standard television pictures are composed of only 486 active lines (525 total). While it is possible to see the lines that make up standard television pictures, HDTV lines are not at all noticeable. The fine-grained HD picture contains five times more information than does the standard television picture and is accompanied by multi-channel, CD quality sound. The difference in video and sound quality is dramatic.
