Embodiment Construction

[0070] attached figure 1 The spectrum of a composite PAL video signal is shown schematically.

[0071] In order to understand the issues involved in Y / C separation, one should understand the transmission standards of analog color television signals, such as the PAL, NTSC, SECAM standards described in ITU-R BT.470. For these standards, the requirement to be backward compatible with pre-existing black and white television signals states that the transmission of the chrominance signal (C) must occur within the bandwidth available for grayscale (Y).

[0072] For PAL, the chrominance components U and V are quadrature amplitude modulated onto a 4.43Mhz subcarrier. The resulting one-dimensional spectrum of the composite PAL video signal is at figure 1 shown in . In addition, the sign of the V component, the so-called V-transition, is inverted every other row, thereby reducing the effect of phase errors. The above situation is described more formally in Equation 3, where represe...

Abstract

A luminance and color separation filter unit (300) for extracting a luminance signal (Y) and two color signals (U, V) from a composite color television signal (CVBS). The filter unit (300) comprises: acquisition means (302) to acquire a first sample of the composite color television signal, corresponding to a first pixel and other samples, corresponding to other pixels in a neighborhood of the first pixel; correlation estimation means (304) to estimate a first set of correlation values representing correlations between the first sample and the respective other samples; penalty estimation means (306) to estimate a second set of penalty values representing relations between the first sample and the respective other samples; computing means (308) to compute a third set of combined values by means of combining respective elements of the first set and the second set; selection means (310) to select a particular sample of the composite color television signal on basis of the corresponding combined value; and decoding means (312) to determine a final luminance value and two color values corresponding to the first pixel, on basis of the first sample and the particular sample.
