ABSTRACT:
A method for processing a quadrature modulated color television picture signal including a luminance component and a chrominance component to reduce cross-color and cross-luminance artificacts in a resultant signal includes in an encoding process the steps of: comb filtering the quadrature modulated chrominance component in a comb filter structure wherein a number of delays between 2 and 13 is adaptively determined by overlap between chrominance and luminance, and the delay is a predetermined one of line scan period, frame scan period, and frame/line scan periods, to put out a comb filtered chroma component; processing the luminance component by passing the luminance component through two complementary filters both symmetrically centered about a chrominance component subcarrier frequency, one filter comprising a band pass filter and the other filter comprising a band reject filter; comb filtering the luminance signal passing through the band pass filter in a comb filter structure wherein a number of delays between 2 and 13 is adaptively determined by overlap between chrominance and luminance, and the delay is the same predetermined one of line scan period, frame scan period, and frame/line scan periods to produce a comb filtered high frequency luminance signal; and adding in phase the comb filtered high frequency luminance signal and the signal passing through the band reject filter in order to provide a comb filtered full bandwidth luminance signal; and, combining in phase the comb filtered chroma component and the comb filtered full bandwidth luminance signal in order to put out a composite signal for transmission or recording. Comb filter decoding having fixed delays are advantageously employed within a system of the present invention.
