Introduction Study Group 11 has brought together@ during the study period 1982-1986 and previously@ a large amount of information concerning the coding@ processing@ transmission and recording of picture- signals in digital component form in the studio. This work has resulted in Recommendation 601 concerning the encoding of the digital video signal for studio production@ and Recommendation 656 concerning studio interfaces for the digital video signal. Additionally@ this work has been taken into account in the Recommendation for the digital recording format (Recommendation 657) and the studies by Study Group 11 on bit-rate reduction (Report 1089) and the CMIT studies concerning the transmission of picture signals. This Report summarizes the work on coding methods for signals within the studio complex@ derived from both analogue and digital sources@ and provides the basis for Recommendation 601 concerning the encoding parameters of the digital television signal in. the studio. This is complimented by Report 962 which concerns the filtering@ sampling@ and multiplexing of digital signals.
