Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce crosstalk of a luminance signal and a chrominance signal by generating a television signal applying multiplex transmission of a tilt component of the luminance signal in the band according to the standards of the existing television broadcast. CONSTITUTION:A signal component whose horizontal frequency is nearly 2.1-4.2MHz and whose vertical frequency is 525/4cph or over is eliminated from the luminance signal Y by a 1st vertical, horizontal filter 4. Then the signal whose tilt component is eliminated by the 1st vertical, horizontal filter 4 is subtracted from the luminance signal Y by a subtractor 5 to obtain the signal with the tilt component. The signal is subjected to frequency conversion by using a carrier whose frequency is fa by a multiplier 6. The output of the filter 7 and the output of the filter 4 are added by an adder 8. Chrominance signals I, Q are given respectively to the 2nd vertical, horizontal filter 10, the 3rd vertical, horizontal filter 11, and the output from a band modulator 12 and a switch 9 is added by an adder 13 to form a synthesis signal. The synthesis signal is sent from an antenna as a television signal.

In this method, the luminance signal and chrominance signal are transmitted by frequency multiplexing, so depending on the spread of the signal bands of the luminance signal and chrominance signal, the two signals may overlap, making it difficult to separate the two signals on the receiving side. As a result, crosstalk occurs between the luminance signal and the color signal, causing significant deterioration in image quality such as cross color and dot interference.

0 is a narrowband color signal Q output terminal. The composite signal synthesized by the television signal processing device on the transmitting side is first sent to the YC separation circuit 22 where it is divided into a luminance signal and other signals (in this case, the color signal and multiplexed signal shown by diagonal lines downward to the right and downward to the left in FIG. 7). ) and the multiplexed signal are separated by a color signal/multiplexed signal separation circuit 23. The multiplexed signal is converted into the original diagonal domain using a carrier of frequency fa, filter 25 removes unnecessary components generated by multiplication, and the signal is input to adder 26 . Here, the color signal which is the output of the 0 color signal/multiple signal separation circuit 23 which is added to the output of the YC separation circuit 22 and becomes the luminance signal Y is converted into a wideband color signal (■) and a narrowband color signal by a color signal demodulation circuit 27 using well-known technology.

In this way, since the oblique component of the luminance signal is removed on the transmitting side and the vertical band of the color signal is limited and sent, YC
No crosstalk occurs between the luminance signal and the chrominance signal in the separation circuit 22, and the diagonal component of luminance No. 1, which is a multiplexed signal, is restored by the carrier of frequency fa. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a clear image without deteriorating the diagonal resolution of the luminance signal and without deteriorating the image quality such as cross color or dot interference due to crosstalk between the luminance signal and color signal.

Furthermore, since the multiplexed signal is located in the first and third quadrants of Figure 7, when received by a conventional television receiver, it is demodulated as a color signal, but the phase is opposite to the color signal for each field. Therefore, each field becomes a complementary color, making it difficult to detect. That is, there is almost no interference with existing televisions due to multiplexed signals.

If a processing system that expands the time axis is included on the receiving side, crosstalk from color signals to luminance signals that occurs during YC separation,
In other words, the appearance of dot interference becomes different. When the time axis is expanded, this becomes a low-frequency dot, and this dot becomes more noticeable due to human visual characteristics, resulting in a large deterioration in image quality. Therefore, as shown in one embodiment of the present invention, on the transmitting side, the first vertical/horizontal filter 7 of FIG.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above description, there are provided means for removing diagonal signal components with high horizontal and vertical frequencies of a luminance signal, means for frequency multiplexing the diagonal signal components, and horizontal and vertical frequencies of color signals. means for separating the luminance signal and the chrominance signal; and means for separating the chrominance signal from a multiplexed signal located in the first and third quadrants conjugate to the chrominance signal in the time-vertical frequency plane. By providing a means for frequency converting the multiplexed signal, the diagonal component of the luminance signal is removed on the transmitting side, and the vertical band of the color signal is limited and sent, so that when the receiving side performs YC separation, the luminance No crosstalk occurs between the signal and the color signal. Further, the oblique component of the luminance signal, which is a multiplexed signal, is restored by the carrier of frequency fa. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a clear image without deteriorating the diagonal resolution of the luminance signal and without deteriorating the image quality such as cross color or dot interference due to crosstalk between the luminance signal and color signal. Furthermore, since the multiplexed signal is located in the first and third quadrants conjugate with the chrominance signal on the time-vertical frequency plane, when received by a conventional television receiver, it is demodulated as a chrominance signal, but the phase differs from field to field. Since the color signal is in reverse phase with the color signal, each field becomes a complementary color, making it difficult to detect. That is, there is almost no interference with current televisions due to multiplexed signals, and compatibility with current televisions can be maintained.

Crosstalk from the color signal to the luminance signal that occurs during separation, that is, dot interference, results in low-frequency dots, and these dots are more noticeable due to human visual characteristics.
This dot interference can be reduced by limiting the band in advance on the transmitting side.
