摘要： A digital television receiver includes a first phase locked loop which develops a sampling clock signal that is locked to the horizontal line synchronizing signal components of a composite video signal. A second digital phase locked loop is clocked by the sampling clock signal and develops a digital signal that is phase locked to the color burst signal. This digital signal is used as a regenerated color subcarrier signal to synchronously demodulate the chrominance components of the composite video signals into I and Q color difference signals. To compensate for frequency instability in the regenerated subcarrier signal caused by frequency instabilities in the line-locked clock signal, a third digital phase locked loop develops an output signal which is phase locked to a reference signal generated by a crystal controlled oscillator. Control signals from the third phase locked loop are applied to the second phase locked loop to substantially compensate for frequency instabilities in the regenerated subcarrier signal that are induced by the clock signals.

摘要： A digital television receiver, having a line-locked clock, includes a partly digital, partly analog phase locked loop. This phase locked loop regenerates two quadrature phase related subcarrier signals that are used to synchronously demodulate the chrominance signal components of the composite video signals into two color informaiton signals. The phase locked loop includes an analog voltage controlled oscillator which generates a signal that is independent of any frequency instability in the line locked clock signal. An analog-to-digital converter digitizes this signal to provide one of the subcarrier signals. This subcarrier signal is applied to a read-only memory to generate the second subcarrier signal. The two color information signals are obtained by multiplying the chrominance signals by the first and second subcarrier signals. A phase comparator determines the phase of the vector sum of the two color information signals and compares this against a desired phase value to generate a phase difference signal. The phase difference signal is filtered and applied to a digital-to-analog converter which provides the frequency control signal for the analog voltage controlled oscillator. In a second embodiment of the invention, a tracking filter is inserted at the output port of the analog-to-digital converter to allow the quantization resolution of the analog-to-digital to be reduced without affecting the performance of the phase locked loop.

摘要： The invention relates to a digital low-pass filter which effects a frequency reduction by a factor which is equal to the ratio w/2 between the frequency of the input signal and the frequency of the output signal, wherein w is an odd integer. The input signal is applied to m series-arranged registers. The input signal of the first and the output signals of all the registers are multiplied by coefficients. A change-over switch precedes an input of each multiplier, the change-over switch switching the coefficients symmetrically. The switching instants are always symmetrical relative to a reference sampling instant. The filter is particularly suitable for use in video signal processing, to reduce negative influences of an analog-to-digital converter.

摘要： A digital television receiver which uses a line-locked clock signal employs chrominance signal demodulation circuitry which produces a digital oscillatory signal that is locked in phase to the color reference burst signal component of the incoming video signals. An analog voltage controlled oscillator generates an oscillatory signal having a frequency of approximately twice the color subcarrier frequency. This signal is combined with the composite video signals and the combined signal is digitized by an analog to digital converter. The digitized oscillatory signal is separated from the combined digital signal and is used to synchronize a digital phase locked loop. The digital phase locked loop generates two quadrature phase related signals having frequencies that are one-half the frequency of the analog oscillatory signal. These two signals are used to synchronously demodulate the chrominance signal components of the incoming video signals to obtain two quadrature phase related color difference signals. The control signal for the voltage controlled oscillator is generated by subtracting the burst phase of the demodulated color difference signals from a reference phase and integrating the difference.

摘要： In a circuit arrangement for converting an analog picture signal, which corresponds to consecutive fields, into an amplitude-discrete output signal, which, in a comparison stage, compares the picture signal to a plurality of reference values and produces an amplitude-discrete intermediate signal at an output, a significant simplification of the circuit cost and design effort is accomplished with, at the same time, an improvement in the error cancellation by the fact that the change in the positions of the values of the picture signal and the reference values relative to each other corresponds to the sum of a fraction and a first integral number of value intervals.

摘要： A digital television receiver, having a line locked clock, includes a first digital phase locked loop which regenerates quadrature phase related subcarrier signals that are used to synchronously demodulate the chrominance signal components of composite video signals into color information signals. When nonstandard video signals (e.g., from a video tape recorder) are processed by the receiver, frequency instabilities in the line locked clock signal may cause the color information signals to be distorted. To compensate for this distortion, a second phase locked loop is synchronized to a reference signal generated by an analog oscillator. The analog reference signal is linearly added to baseband analog video signals provided by a tuner. The combined signals are digitized by an analog-to-digital converter and then filtered by parallel low-pass and band-pass filters to develop digital signals representing the video signals and the reference signal, respectively. The digital reference signal is used to synchronize the second phase locked loop, the control signals of which are used to compensate the first phase locked loop for frequency instabilities in the clock signal.

摘要： In a method of increasing the resolution of a digitized time-dependent signal, particularly a picture signal, which consists of a sequence of sampling values, teaches the forming at one sampling value an associated mean value with higher resolution. The associated mean value is formed from the sampling value and at least one succeeding and/or preceding sampling value. When the sampling value is replaced by the associated mean value, obliteration of rapid signal changes is eliminated; and circuit complexity is minimized by the fact that a sampling value is replaced by the associated mean value only when these two values differ from one another by no more than a preset amount. A circuit for implementing this method is also disclosed.

摘要： For determining the half-cycle durations of the input signal which is presented as a sequence of sampled values, its zero crossings are approximated by lines which interconnect the two sampled values of different signs on both sides of the zero crossing. The half-cycle duration is derived from the number of sampled values within a period, i.e. between two consecutive zero crossings, and from the time intervals at the beginning and end of each half-cycle determined by the intersection of the approximation line with the axis. The time intervals at the beginning and end of each period are corrected for a more accurate determination of the duration and the time intervals during which the values of the individual half-cycle durations are stored, are made to approximate to these half-cycle durations. The instantaneous frequency of the input signal is determined from the values of the half-cycle durations which have thus been shifted in time by forming the reciprocal.
