    Abstract: High definition video signals are pre-filtered and down-sampled by a video converter system to standard definition picture sizes. Standard definition motion estimators employed for field rate up-conversion are then utilized to estimate motion vectors for the standard definition pictures. The resulting motion vectors are scaled and post-processed for motion smoothness for use in motion compensated up-conversion of the field rate for the high definition pictures. The associated memory size and bandwidth requirements and overall cost render consumer electronics implementations for motion compensated field rate up-conversion of film material to high definition video commercially viable while preserving picture quality.

    Abstract: For use in a video image upconversion unit of the type that uses motion compensation to generate an interpolated field using motion vectors, an improved method of motion compensation is disclosed. The method performs motion compensation on a pixel and determines whether a motion vector assigned to the pixel is correct or incorrect. If the motion vector is incorrect, the method sets the value of the pixel to a previously recorded pixel value. The previously recorded pixel value is obtained by calculating for the pixel the difference between the value of a corresponding motion compensated pixel from a previous frame and the value of a corresponding motion compensated pixel from a next field. The difference is then compared with a threshold value. If the difference is less than the threshold value, then the value of the pixel is set equal to the average of the value of the corresponding motion compensated pixel from the previous frame and the value of the corresponding motion compensated pixel from the next field.
