Introduction
Background
Digital production and contribution standards are predominantly split into high definition and standard definition formats. Both formats are typically transported using a single copper (coaxial) interface operating at 270Mbit/s for standard definition and 1.485Gbit/s for high-definition. Over the last decade the transition to digital has been widespread and the installation of 270Mbit/s equipment and infrastructure is ubiquitous.
More recently, high-definition formats have been used for content acquisition and mastering in preparation for HD transmission and to generate masters at significantly higher resolution than afforded using standard definition.
However, coaxial cable losses limit the contribution of high definition signals to about half the distance of standard definition signals for a given cable type (see table below which gives typical maximum distances for several commonly used coaxial cable types).
Table 1: Typical coaxial run length performance
Cable Type HD-SDI (1.485Gbit/s) SD-SDI (270Mbit/s)RG11 14AWG 330m 670m
Belden 1694A 18AWG 230m 460mRG6 18AWG 180m 370m
RG59 20AWG 150m 300mBelden 1855A 110m 230mCanare 3C2V 90m 190m
For existing SD installations wishing to upgrade to HD, this places a limitation on the cable runs that can carry HD content.
High-definition down-conversion/upconversion between HD and SD is not suitable for contribution of HD content because the down-conversion process must remove most of the high-frequency detail to satisfy Nyquist limits imposed when converting to a lower definition format.
The HDX-VLC codec uses a completely different approach in order to allow the contribution of HD content over existing SD 270Mbit/s links. The HDX-VLC-E encoder uses a wavelet transform and variable length coding algorithm to reduce the bit-rate requirement of the HD video so that it fits within the 270Mbit/s SD-SDI transport whilst maintaining the high-resolution detail contained in the original HD image.
Page 3
The algorithm has many similarities with JPEG2000, but has been optimised for the transport of HD over existing SD 270Mbit/s links where the compression ratio is fixed, and factors such as low power and low latency are critical - the HDXVLC extender has a near zero latency of only 12 HD lines end-to-end.
The HDX-VLC-E (encoder) uses two-level Haar wavelet transform to split the HD signal into seven frequency subbands, the coefficients of which are then coded efficiently using variable length codes. The resulting codewords are tightly packed and used in place of the active pixels in the SD image. To avoid the possibility of generating illegal codewords, only 9 bits out of every 10 bits available from each active pixel are used.
The HDX-VLC-BCA-E encoded output is compliant with SMPTE 259M (the specification for the transport of SD-SDI) and is compatible with ALL SD-SDI infrastructure and equipment. So for example, the encoded SDI signal can be monitored for signal presence and physical parameters analysed using standard monitoring equipment such as the Tektronic WFM700M (below left).

The HDX-VLC-D (decoder) implements the reverse process, decoding the 9-bit codewords into wavelet filter coefficients before inverse transforming them back to the original HD image.
ANC data compatibility
Compressed data only occupies the active pixels in the SD signal leaving the ancillary data space available for embedded data such as PCM audio or Dolby-E.
The HDX-VLC-E detects and automatically re-maps up to 8 channels of embedded audio SMPTE 272M and ancillary time code data SMPTE 12M-2 2009 (LTC and VITC) from the HD input to the SD output. At the decoder the reverse process occurs, with embedded audio and ancillary time code data from the SD input relocated to the HD output.
BackChannel AudioUnique to the HDX-VLC-BCA codec is the ability to simultaneously send 2 channels of audio in the reverse direction to the embedded audio i.e. from the decoder to the encoder. This feature would typically be used to provide audio feedback to a camera operator without the need to run additional audio cables.

Description
Cable Extender without backchannel audio
2 2 This is the main mode of operation.
This allows the transportation of HD-SDI content over SD-SDI networks increasing the maximum coaxial run length performance according to Table 1.
This mode has the maximum cable performance with all of the available frequency spectrum assigned to the SD-SDI signal.
Inputs that cannot be encoded such as Full-HD or SD-SDI are automatically bypassed
Cable Extender with backchannel audio
0 0 This allows the transportation of HD-SDI content over SD-SDI networks increasing the maximum coaxial run length performance according to Table 1.
In this mode, the available frequency spectrum is shared by the SD-SDI video signal and the backchannel audio. Backchannel audio is carried in the low frequency spectrum close to DC. Active and passive filters handle the crossover between the backchannel audio data and the SD-SDI video data.
Important note: This mode has the same maximum cable performance as the mode above but should be avoided for short cable runs below 50m as the backchannel audio can interfere with the video signal and cause occassional errors.
Inputs that cannot be encoded such as Full-HD or SD-SDI are automatically bypassed.
Backchannel Audio
1 0,1 This allows backhannel audio to be added to Full HD, HD-SDI or SD-SDI signals. The encoder and decoder components are bypassed so the cable run performance will reflect the frequency content being carried.
