ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a noise reduction circuit for reducing noise contained in a luminance signal, wherein a first subtractor has a first input terminal connected to be responsive to the luminance signal. A low-pass filter passes a low-frequency component of the output of the first subtractor to a second subtractor which combines it with the luminance signal to extract high-frequency noise contained therein. The extracted noise is limited in amplitude by a limiter and applied through a feedback circuit to the second input terminal of the first subtractor. The noise reduction circuit operates as if it were a low-pass filter having a cutoff frequency which increases as a function of the level of the luminance signal to reduce the length of time in which smear and noise tend to occur in response to high amplitude luminance signals.
