Broadcast engineering is the field that focuses on the technology and systems used to transmit audio and video content to the public. This includes everything from designing and maintaining radio and television stations to ensuring that signals reach homes and devices effectively. Broadcast engineers work with various equipment, such as transmitters, antennas, and audio/video processing tools, to create high-quality broadcasts. In addition to technical skills, broadcast engineers must understand regulations and standards set by organizations like the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). They also collaborate with producers and technicians to troubleshoot issues and improve broadcast quality, ensuring that audiences receive clear and reliable content.
