    The program index is designed to provide information to assist selection and search of broadcasting programs. We have developed a test bed for MPEG2 Section Transmission System on Program Index specification to evaluate the Program Index and its description profile. This paper describesthe outline of MPEG2 Section Transmission System and Evaluation System of Program Index.

    The Program Index is a metadata of TV program for new broadcasting services such as multi-scenario program, hierachical program and so on. We have developed an experimental end-to-end system of the Program Index. In this paper, we describe the receiver part of the system, which can browse the tree structure of program segments and play the segments selectively. We also describe POT (PTS Offset Table) code, which improves efficient time accuracy of the Program Index.

    ISDB-T(Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting-Terrestrial)transmission signal consists of a set of frequency blocks called OFDM-Segments. Transmission parameters such as the modulation scheme and the coding rate of the inner code can be selected independently for each OFDM-Segment. These transmission parameters are transmitted to receivers by TMCC (Transmission and Multiplexing Configuration Control)pilot carriers, which exist in each OFDM-Segment. This paper describes transmission performances of TMCC signal based on laboratory tests. Required C/N of TMCC carriers are studied under various interference conditions.

    A new method of loss-less compression of gray-scale images, using The combination of "classic" predictive coding and adaptive arithmetics coding, has been studied. The characteristics of the method are discussed in relation to the context dependence of the coding. and the nonstationarity of the images. Several experimental results are shown in comparing with the conventional JPEG-LS method.

    This paper reports the results of a study on improvement of disparity estimation using adaptive processing. When the high-pass filtered luminance signals are used in block matching based on the sum of absolute error criteria, the accuracy of disparity estimation can be improved around edges in the images. In order to reduce miss-matching, we propose an adaptive processing algorithm to determine the proper function for each block. We verified the effect of this algorythm on the disparity-compensated images.

    In this paper, we discuss the "cardboard effect"which is a common form of distortion in stereoscopic images. Particularly, the relationship is studied between the "cardboard effect"and shooting conditions, such as the focal length of lenses or lighitng conditions. Subjective evaluation tests show that binocular disparity derived from camera separation and focal length of lenses has important effects on the "cardboard effect". Additionally, motion parallax has also serious effects while the effect caused by binocular disparity remains indecisive. On the other hand, other conditions such as lighting conditions or background conditions are also effective.

    Research on shooting conditions of 3D program production for natural 3D images has been continued. In the study, it has been shown that an orthostereosocopic condition brings about no inconsistency between depth information from perspective of the lenses and that from binocular parallax, and can be effective to reproduce natural 3D images. A newly developed 3D camera is based on the condition which results in compactness of the camera. At the same time, the new camera has a zooming function and is valuable in many ways, especially sprot broadcasting. In this paper, we describe the outline of the camera and psychological effects of 3D images shot by the camera.

    The world famous "Kinoshita Circus"came back to Okayama-city for a 4day-running circus stage in last August. In order to capture their dynamic performances, we used our 3D Hi-Vision camera and therefore created 3 dimensional program titled "Circus Tent, a place of Dreams"Considering it to be shown on a 200-inch screen, our main object was to create it as sensitive as possible for viewer's eyes. After a briefexplanation, please experience this eye-sensitive 3D program.

    The world first trial that the High Definition Camcorder was taken aboard on the Space Shuttle was achieved to make success with recording the interior and exterior shuttle images in November 1998. The high definition earth images allow us to feel alluring atmoshpere, which also has more scientific value than ever documented by TV camcorder due to its high resolution. The safety verification and the measurement was required by NASA in order to approve as an on-board equipment. And we had the opportunity to present the astronauts about the camcorder operation. During the mission, the camcorder worked normally in the orbiter. Meanwhile the space radiation might cause the CCD defects tha produces the pixel noise in teh recorded image, but we introduced the pixel noise corrector at the post video processing and immediately restored as a normal image without any defects.

    We had developed field strength simulation system "ERIAKAKUBEH".This system is possible to simulate the abusolute service area of the analoge terrestrial TV and the new service area of the digital terrestrial TV. We had approached to develop the approximate formula and the results was nearly equaled to the measurement value. This paper discribes consideration of characteristic urban propagation, effect of the antenna direction pattern, and D/U.
