How do I differentiate Analog TV, Digital TV and HDTV

For the first time there is a television, a model of television is still using analog TV concept, the quality of the image obtained is still very bad, still a lot of distractions, especially in image noise. Analog TV is still using a CRT that is not efficient place nor power-efficient. Because many of these weaknesses, then made the next-generation TV that aim to minimize these shortcomings. Still remember when I first high-definition television (HDTV) market in 1998, movie fans, sports fans and technology lovers quite excited, and for good reason. From the advertiser then has become a new haven television with superior resolution and digital surround sound. With HDTV, you can also play movies in their original widescreen format without the "black bars" top and bottom, some people do not like to look like this, studio mode. Now broadcast TV into use is the Digital TV (DTV). DTV is transmitting a signal using code 01. In the on-air broadcasting, DTV transmitted using Ultra High Frequency (UHF) and radio spectrum ranging from 6 MHz. The picture quality is very clear, although in a small TV. DTV reaches 704 pixel resolution so images remain clear despite appearing on the big screen. For the video, because of the support of high resolution, the display image per frame will not produce flicker. Unlike the analog TV when used for video and imposed on the big screen, the image will be blurry and disjointed. DTV also supports HDTV broadcasts. Well, on the HDTV (High-defenition TV) itself, HDTV is part of the standard set for DTV. Standard is concerned with how the audio and video that can be translated and transmitted.

While in DTV only reached 704 × 480 pixels. That is, the number of pixel HDTV 10x more than analog TV. To frame rate, arguably the same.
