What is a LED TV

A led TV is an LCD TV that uses LEDs to illuminate the display. There are two ways to do this: either by placing LEDs across the entire back of the display, or by placing LEDs just around the perimeter, which is called an “edge lit” display. Both techniques use less power than plasma TVs and LCD TVs lit with fluorescent tubes.

History of LED TV

LED technology was first used as status and indicator lamps. Over the past six years though, it has been developed to meet general lighting application demands. Samsung is among the first to incorporate light-emitting diodes (LED) into television technology, it is called the LED TV which is now taking the technological world by storm. Samsung uses a term LED TV (light emitting diode television) for describing LCD (liquid crystal display) TVs which utilizes LED Backlighting. LED TV is a controversial term effectively used for the advertisements between Samsung and its competitors. But the complaint of the competitors is, LED TV produces a display of 100% LEDs and which is not compromised in this. LEDs in their current form are much too large to be individual pixels on a conventional television. In order to capture some of the hype around O-LED TVs, Samsung has chosen to brand their LED-lit range of LCD TVs but still except for the Sony XEL-1 they are not commercially available. LED-backlit LCD TVs do differ from conventional LCD TVs in some important areas: 1. LED televisions can produce bright image and deep blacks (doesn’t work for Edge-LED). 2. They can be extremely slim with Edge-LED lighting. 3. LED TV offers lower power consumption. 4. Especially when RGB-LED backlighting is used, LED TV also offers a wider colour gamut. led tv

LED in Television Application

LED technology captures the natural colours of real life with the production of darker blacks, crisp whites, and strong contrast between dark and vivid colours. Samsung also enhanced its LED-powered products with Auto Motion Plus frame interpolation, which effectively reduces image judder and motion blur.

    satellite broadcast carries both picture and sound signals and they are broadcasted in C-band radio (3.4 Gigahertz [GHz] to 7 GHz). The Ku band frequency (12 GHz to 14 GHz) was introduced to provide superior video and audio to its subscribers.
