    摘要: Image processing apparatus is described for filtering a digital representation of a raster scanned image into a plurality of sub-bands in the two-dimensional spatial frequency domain, the resolution of the raster scanned image in a first direction (usually the horizontal direction) being greater than the resolution of the raster scanned image in a second direction (usually the vertical direction). The image processing apparatus has a decimation filter means comprising a number of multi-tap digital decimation filters for spatial filtering in the first and second directions. The mean of the filter lengths of the filters used for filtering in the first direction is greater than that of the filters used for filtering in the second direction. Complementary interpolation apparatus for reconstructing the image from the plurality of sub-bands is also described.

    摘要: Apparatus for storing a video signal includes a signal compression arrangement constituted by a spatial two-dimensional sub-band filtering arrangement that filters a digital video signal to form data sets constituting respective sub-bands of the two-dimensional spatial frequency domain, a quantizer that quantizes the data sets in accordance with respective values which are such that the amount of quantization of one of the data sets constituting a sub-band to which dc luminance information of the signal is at least predominantly confined is less than the average of the amounts of quantization of the remaining data sets, and an entropy encoder that selectively encodes at least some of the quantized data sets so that the quantized data sets, as selectively entropy encoded, form a compressed video signal. The signal compression arrangement is followed by a storage arrangement for storing the compressed video signal.

    摘要: To enable a digital composite color video signal (NTSC or PAL) to be compressed directly, that is without dividing it into its components and compressing the components separately, the digital composite color video signal is decorrelated, for example by spatial sub-band filtering, to form data sets, for example sub-bands, representing dc luminance information, ac luminance information and dc chrominance information. The data sets are then quantized in accordance with respective quantization values from a quantization matrix, those quantization values being such that the amount of quantization of each of some of the data sets to which the dc luminance information and the dc chrominance information is at least predominantly confined is less than the average of the amounts of quantization of the remaining data sets. At least some of the quantized data sets are then entropy encoded.

    摘要: Apparatus for concealing errors in a digital television signal comprises delay elements for deriving a current sample value and a first group of the sample values spatially closest to the current sample value in the same frame of the television signal and delay elements for deriving from the preceding frame of the television signal a delayed sample value corresponding in position to the current sample value and a second group of sample values respectively corresponding in position to the sample values. The current sample value and the delayed sample value are checked for error, and subtractors check pairs of sample values corresponding in position in the current and preceding frames of the television signal for error, derive a measure of the difference in the levels of the sample values in each pair, and combine the results of these checks to provide an output signal which is a measure of the number of the errors and of the sum of the differences. A threshold device checks the output signal against a predetermined threshold level corresponding to an acceptably small number of errors and a relative low degree of movement in the part of a television picture corresponding to the groups of sample values, and a selector is operative, if the sample value is in error, the delayed sample value in not in error, and the output signal is below the predetermined level, to replace the current sample value by the delayed sample value for supply to an output, and, in all other cases, to supply the current sample value to the output.
