ABSTRACT:
A system for reproducing a luminance signal from a medium containing a previously recorded luminance signal with a high-frequency portion thereof compressed in dynamic range includes a circuit for recovering that luminance signal from the medium. Filtering is done to separate the low-frequency and compressed-in-dynamic-range high-frequency portions of the recovered luminance signal from each other. A corer responds to the separated compressed-in-dynamic-range high-frequency portion of the recovered luminance signal to provide a cored high-frequency portion with expanded dynamic range and reduced noise. The level of the cored high-frequency portion with expanded dynamic range and reduced noise is then boosted by a predetermined amount to compensate for energy losses during the compression of the dynamic range and added back to the low-frequency portion of the recovered luminance signal to reproduce a full-band luminance signal with at least partially restored dynamic range for high-frequencies and without readily visible high-frequency noise.
