Summary :

4K/8K satellite broadcasting featuring ultra-high definition video and sound was launched in Japan in 2018. This is the first 8K ultra high definition television (UHDTV) broadcasting in the world, with 16 times as many pixels as HDTV and 3D sound with 22.2ch audio. The large amount of information that has to be transmitted means that a new satellite broadcasting transmission system had to be developed. In this paper, we describe this transmission system, focusing on the technology that enables 4K/8K UHDTV satellite broadcasting.
