ABSTRACT:
An adaptive sync protection apparatus for a digital video cassette recorder (VCR) adaptively protects a sync signal being reference of processing a digital reproduction signal reproduced via a recording medium from the varied reproduction characteristics of a channel. The apparatus comprises a sync detection unit for detecting sync data from the digital reproduction signal and outputting a sync detection signal and a sync signal; a sync prediction/error detection unit for determining sync detection prediction positions for a present track using the sync detection signal and a sync detection reference number, detecting error-sync and sync missing corresponding to the present track based on the sync detection prediction positions and the sync detection signal and outputting an error-sync generation number and an sync missing number; and a reference value generation unit for generating the sync detection reference number with respect to the following track, using the sync missing number and the error-sync generation number of the present track. Accordingly, this apparatus can adapt generation of the sync signal to reproduction characteristics of a channel as the sync detection reference number is adaptively adjusted, even when the reproduction characteristics of a channel provides a relatively good or poor circumstance for sync detection.
