    摘要: A system for reproducing a luminance signal from a medium containing a previously recorded luminance signal with a high-frequency portion thereof compressed in dynamic range includes a circuit for recovering that luminance signal from the medium. Filtering is done to separate the low-frequency and compressed-in-dynamic-range high-frequency portions of the recovered luminance signal from each other. A corer responds to the separated compressed-in-dynamic-range high-frequency portion of the recovered luminance signal to provide a cored high-frequency portion with expanded dynamic range and reduced noise. The level of the cored high-frequency portion with expanded dynamic range and reduced noise is then boosted by a predetermined amount to compensate for energy losses during the compression of the dynamic range and added back to the low-frequency portion of the recovered luminance signal to reproduce a full-band luminance signal with at least partially restored dynamic range for high-frequencies and without readily visible high-frequency noise.

    摘要: An encoder separates luminance and chrominance signal components of a composite video signal. The frame-to-frame changes in the luminance signal are detected, and a motion signal is derived therefrom. The higher frequency portion of the luminance signal is adaptively de-emphasized in amplitude and folded into the spectrum of the lower frequency portion of the luminance signal, to generate a folded-spectrum luminance signal for modulating the frequency of a luma carrier. In a combined signal, suitable for magnetic recording in accordance with a modified VHS standard, the chrominance signal is translated in frequency to generate a color-under signal in a frequency band below that occupied by the FM luma carrier. The de-emphasized higher frequency portion of the luminance signal, as folded into its lower frequency portion, and encoding of the motion signal onto vacant portions of the frequency band below that occupied by the FM luma carrier in such a magnetic recording facilitate its being compatibly reproduced by conventional VHS reproduction devices. In a wideband reproduction device a decoder demodulates the folded-spectrum luminance signal from the FM luma carrier, unfolds the lumininance signal, and reemphasizes the high frequencies of the unfolded luminance signal. The color-under signal is translated in frequency to regenerate chrominance signal combined with the unfolded luminance signal with its high frequencies re-emphasized to their original amplitude, regenerating a composite signal descriptive of a full bandwidth image. The motion signal is utilized in the encoder for motion-adaptively pre-filtering the input luminance and is recovered in the decoder for motion-adaptively post-filtering the unfolded luminance.

    摘要: An improved video signal recording system for recording a full bandwidth video signal on a limited bandwidth medium is disclosed. The recording system includes an encoder, coupled to an input terminal, for adaptively processing a composite video signal in response to a motion representative signal, and producing two signals; a luminance signal, having attenuated high frequencies subsampled so as to be folded into a spectral hole in the low frequencies, and being bandwidth limited to the limited bandwidth of the recording medium; and a combined signal including a chrominance and a motion component. Luminance signal recording circuitry records the folded luminance signal on the medium and chrominance signal recording circuitry records the combined chrominance and motion signal on the medium. An improved video signal playback system for reproducing such a prerecorded video signal is also disclosed. The playback system consists of a luminance signal playback circuit for retrieving the prerecorded luminance signal from the medium, and chrominance signal playback circuit for retrieving the prerecorded combined chrominance and motion signals from the medium. A decorder extracts the motion signal and the chrominance signal from the combined chrominance and motion signal and an unfolding circuit extracts the luminance high frequencies from the prerecorded folded luminance signal and adaptively regenerates the full bandwidth luminance signal in response to the motion signal. This regenerated full bandwidth luminance signal is combined with the chrominance signal to reproduce the originally recorded composite video signal. A recording medium previously recorded by such a recording system is capable of being played back on a standard playback system without objectionably artifacts in the reproduced image.

    摘要: A motion detector for detecting interimage motion represented by composite video signals analyzes both the chrominance and luminance components for image motion. Interimage motion represented by the luminance component is determined from interimage signal differences. The interimage signal differences are separated into high and low frequency spectra corresponding to fine and coarse luminance image detail. Selected signal differences from the low frequency spectrum are summed and threshold detected to determine motion in the coarse image detail. The high frequency spectrum of the sample differences are applied to parallel summing circuits which sum different combinations of sample differences in order to discriminate motion signals from non-moving chrominance transitions. The detection signals from the high and low frequency motion detectors are combined to produce a luminance motion signal. Interimage motion represented by the chrominance component is detected by combining selected ones of interimage signal sums. The interimage signal sums are high pass filtered and applied to parallel combining elements which discriminate chrominance motion from vertical luminance transitions.

    摘要: An inverter operated at the horizontal deflection frequency is coupled to a source of direct voltage for developing an alternating voltage at an output terminal of the inverter. A capacitor AC couples the alternating voltage to the primary winding of a power transformer for developing alternating polarity supply voltages across secondary windings of the transformer. A horizontal generator generates scanning current in a deflection winding. A third winding of the transformer applies to the deflection winding the alternating polarity voltage developed across the third winding. The control circuit of the inverter is responsive to a deflection rate voltage synchronized with scanning current generation for synchronizing operation of the inverter so as to enable the third winding to provide substantial linearity correction to the scanning current. The value of the coupling capacitor is chosen to produce a change in the waveshape of the inverter alternating voltage as it is coupled to the primary winding so as to enhance the linearity correction being provided by the transformer third winding.
