ABSTRACT:
Red color saturation is increased and red color with higher purity can be reproduced by composing: a red color detection circuit 1 for detecting a red color signal having higher purity by inputting color differential signals (R-Y) and (B-Y) modulated by color subcarrier, subtracting the absolute value of the (B-Y) signal from the positive polarity component of the (R-Y) signal and removing the negative part of the subtracted signal; Y signal compensation block including: first gain controller 50b for controlling the output signal amplitude of red color detection circuit 1 and a subtracter 50a for subtracting the output signal of first gain controller 50b from a luminance signal Y; an (R-Y) signal compensation block including: second gain controller 51b for controlling the output signal amplitude of red color detection circuit 1 and an adder 51a for adding the output signal of second gain controller 51b and the input (R-Y) signal; and a (B-Y) signal compensation block including: third gain controller 52b for controlling the output signal amplitude of red color detection circuit 1, a polarity inverter 52c for inverting the output signal polarity of third gain controller 52b, a switch circuit 52d for selecting either input signal or output signal of polarity inverter 52c, a polarity discriminater 52e for discriminating the polarity of the input (B-Y) signal and controlling switch circuit 52d and an adder 52e for adding the output signal of switch circuit 52d and the input (B-Y) signal.
