ABSTRACT:
In a video disc system, the picture display is adversely affected by intermodulation distortion occuring in the signals recovered from the disc record. A non-linear circuit, responsive to a bias signal, generates a compensation signal in a diode modulator for cancelling the undesired distortion components of the recovered signal. The resulting distortion after cancellation is measured in a comparator circuit to determine if the distortion has increased or decreased. The comparator circuitry outputs an appropriate signal to bias the non-linear circuit to further reduce the distortion components. A small oscillation is superimposed on this bias signal, which oscillation simplifies the comparator circuitry and forces the circuit to search for an optimum operating point.
