ABSTRACT:
A video quality improvement method and apparatus for a television system recovers lost brightness information from the chrominance channels of an encoder due to processing errors, such as quantization roundoff errors, and adds it to the luminance input to the luminance channel of the encoder. Component signals from a video source are input to the encoder. The encoder provides an encoded video output signal as well as reconstructed component signals. From the encoder characteristics the processing errors for the chrominance channels are determined. The partial derivatives for each of the component signals are obtained, and the error in brightness is determined by summing the products of the errors and the corresponding chrominance partial derivatives. The luminance component signal is corrected by dividing the error in brightness by the luminance partial derivative and subtracting the result from the input luminance component signal. The corrected luminance component signal is processed by the encoder.
