ABSTRACT:
A high definition television transmission system in which a wide band interlaced television signal (FIG. 2) having 1249 lines per field is divided to provide first and second interlaced television signals each having 625 lines per field and consequently reduced bandwidth. Adjacent lines of the first television signal have their low frequency information (0-3 MHz) (FIG. 2) derived from alternate lines in the wide band signal while the corresponding information for adjacent lines in the second television signal (FIG. 4) is derived from the intervening lines in the wide band signal. The high frequency information (3-5.5 or 6 MHz) for the lines of both the first and second television signals (FIG. 7) is derived from the average of the corresponding information in adjacent lines of the wide band signal. The first television signal also contains a color subcarrier which is modulated by the average of the color information in adjacent lines of the wide band signal (FIG. 7). The two television signals may be jointly received for the provision of a high definition display but the invention has the distinct advantage that the first television signal may be received alone by currently manufactured television receivers for reproduction of a display of a quality which is currently acceptable.
