horizontal resolution[edit]

The article claims that Only the vertical and carrier frequency of the signal are defined by the standard, the horizontal resolution can vary from one implementation to another and still satisfy the STANAG 3350 standard. I may be wrong, but I used STANAG 3350 a lot some time ago, and in my memory, there were only two or three form factors specified by the standards, I think only 1/1 and 4/3. It is true that the horizontal resolution is not defined, but the form factor is. If an OEM wants to provide another form factor, he usually has to use only part of the signal. I will look a the standard once again, and fix this if I happen to be right Hervegirod (talk) 11:40, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unlike digital video, horizontal resolution is irrelevant to analog, since pixel width (or for that matter the use of pixels at all) is not fixed within the analog signal definition. As a practical matter, the hardware will impose limitations on how good the horizontal resolution is, but in theory a perfect camera and display with noiseless transmission of the signal could have infinite horizontal resolution.
