The standard by which TV is broadcast in Europe It has a theoretical maximum resolution of 625 lines Also has an aspect ratio of 4: 3/1 33: 1, and in some places 16: 9/1 78: 1
Phased Alternate Line, analog standard for television transmission (mainly Europe), frame 4: 3, 625 lines
(phase alternate line) (n ) A composite color standard similar to NTSC, except that the v-axis subcarrier reference signal inverts in phase at the horizontal line rate
Phase Alternate Line video standard used in Europe and other parts of the world for composite color encoding, using 625 lines at 50 fields per second with a 4 438 MHz color subcarrier, although other scanning systems may be used
A color television standard or timing format developed in West Germany and used by most other countries in Europe, including the United Kingdom but excluding France, as well as Australia and parts of the Far East PAL uses a total of 625 horizontal lines per frame Each field refreshes at 50 Hz PAL encodes color differently from NTSC PAL stands for Phase Alternation Line or Phase Alternated by Line, by which this system attempts to correct some of the color inaccuracies in NTSC See also NTSC
Phase Alternating Line A European conventional colour television standard, which evolved from the American NTSC standard The term "Phase Alternating Line" refers to the technique used to overcome the colour variations that can occur in the NTSC system
Phase alternating line The current Australian analog transmission standard is PAL system B The PAL system consists of 625 lines per frame, only 576 of which are displayed
A 50 field video format used primarily in Europe, (abrv for Phase Alternating Line)
The European standard for color television transmission, calling for 625 lines of information, scanned at a rate of 25 frames per second (also see NTSC)
Phase Alternate Lines: colour TV standard (50Hz, 625 lines) used in most European countries and widely throughout the world
An abbreviation for phase-alternating line, PAL is the color television system used throughout most of Europe and many places around the world pixel An individual picture element
