Methods of measurement on receivers for television broadcast transmissions -- Part 1: General considerations - Measurements at radio and video frequencies

Deals with the standard conditions and methods of measurement on television receivers that conform to the terrestrial broadcast television standards specified by the ITU-R. Such receivers may be used for direct off-air reception, reception via cabled networks or as a monitor for prerecorded video, home movies and games among other applications. Deals with the determination of performance and permits the comparison of equipment by listing the characteristics which are useful for specifications and by laying down uniform methods of measurement for these characteristics. performance requirements are not specified.

Se rapporte aux conditions et méthodes de mesures applicables aux récepteurs de télévision prévus pour la réception hertzienne terrestre. Ces derniers doivent être conformes aux systèmes de télévision spécifiés par l'UIT-R. De tels récepteurs peuvent être utilisés pour la réception hertzienne directe, pour la réception au travers des réseaux câblés, ou 'etre configurés en moniteur pour la visualisation par exemple de signaux vidéo enregistrés ou issus de consoles de jeux. Permet la détermination du niveau de performances d'équipements, ainsi que leur comparaison, en dressant la liste des caractéristiques représentatives, et en proposant des méthodes uniformes de mesures. Les performances exigées ne sont pas spécifiées.

METHODS OF MEASUREMENT ON RECEIVERS
FOR TELEVISION BROADCAST TRANSMISSIONS –
Part 1: General considerations –
Measurements at radio and video frequencies
FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60107-1 has been prepared by subcommittee 100A: Multimedia
end-user equipment, of IEC technical committee 100: Audio, video and multimedia systems
and equipment.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 1977, amendment 1
(1987) and constitutes a technical revision.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
100A/5/FDIS 100A/40/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
Annexes A and B form an integral part of this standard.
Annex C is for information only.

1.1 3COPE
This part of IEC 60107 deals with the standard conditions and methods of measurement on
television receivers that conform to the terrestrial broadcast television standards specified by
the ITU-R*. Such receivers may be used for direct off-air reception, reception via cabled
networks or as a monitor for prerecorded video, home movies and games among other
applications. This part does not include the measurements specific to the sound channels
which are dealt with by other parts: IEC 60107-2, 60107-3, 60107-4, and 60107-5.
Measurements for the non-broadcast signals are dealt with by IEC 60107-6.
This part of IEC 60107 deals with the determination of performance and permits the
comparison of equipment by listing the characteristics which are useful for specifications and
by laying down uniform methods of measurement for these characteristics. Performance
requirements are not specified.
This part of IEC 60107 does not deal with general safety matters, for which reference is
required to IEC 60065, or other appropriate IEC safety standards, nor with radiation and
immunity, for which reference is required to CISPR 13 and CISPR 20.
1.2 .ORMATIVE�REFERENCES
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text,
constitute provisions of this part of IEC 60107. At the time of publication, the editions indicated
were valid. All normative documents are subject to revision and the parties to agreements
based on this part of IEC 60107 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the
most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. Members of ISO and IEC
