Color depth or colour depth,also known as bit depth,is either the number of bits used to indicate the color of a single pixel,or the number of bits used for each color component of a single pixel. When referring to a pixel,the concept can be defined as bits per pixel (bpp). When referring to a color component,the concept can be defined as bits per component,bits per channel,bits per color,and also bits per pixel component,bits per color channel or bits per sample (bps). Modern standards tend to use bits per component,but historical lower-depth systems used bits per pixel more often.
Digital cable is the distribution of cable television using digital data and video compression. The technology was first developed by General Instrument. By 2000,most cable companies offered digital features,eventually replacing their previous analog-based cable by the mid 2010s. During the late 2000s,broadcast television converted to the digital HDTV standard,which was incompatible with existing analog cable systems.
A power of two is a number of the form 2n where n is an integer,that is,the result of exponentiation with number two as the base and integer n as the exponent. If n is negative,2n is called an negative power of two or inverse power of two.

A traffic generation model is a stochastic model of the traffic flows or data sources in a communication network,for example a cellular network or a computer network. A packet generation model is a traffic generation model of the packet flows or data sources in a packet-switched network. For example,a web traffic model is a model of the data that is sent or received by a user's web-browser. These models are useful during the development of telecommunication technologies,in view to analyse the performance and capacity of various protocols,algorithms and network topologies.
The Program and System Information Protocol (PSIP) is the MPEG and privately defined program-specific information originally defined by General Instrument for the DigiCipher 2 system and later extended for the ATSC digital television system for carrying metadata about each channel in the broadcast MPEG transport stream of a television station and for publishing information about television programs so that viewers can select what to watch by title and description. Its FM radio equivalent is Radio Data System (RDS).

Statistical multiplexing is a type of communication link sharing,very similar to dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA). In statistical multiplexing,a communication channel is divided into an arbitrary number of variable bitrate digital channels or data streams. The link sharing is adapted to the instantaneous traffic demands of the data streams that are transferred over each channel. This is an alternative to creating a fixed sharing of a link,such as in general time division multiplexing (TDM) and frequency division multiplexing (FDM). When performed correctly,statistical multiplexing can provide a link utilization improvement,called the statistical multiplexing gain.
