ABSTRACT:
The present invention is intended to binary process an image signal obtained by scanning image data by a plurality of threshold levels and to two-dimensionally encode a plurality of binary outputs derived in this way, thereby to telegraph-transmit an image at intermediate gradient. Then, by adopting the encoding by the Modified Read method which has a K parameter value coresponding to the number of such threshold levels, the intermediate gradient image can be telegraph-transmitted efficiently at a high speed. Furthermore, by merely increasing the threshold levels, the image at a variety of intermediate gradients of four, eight or sixteen values, or the like can be telegraph-transmitted and recorded, so that a degree of freedom is designing the apparatus is raised.
