  • this additional signal type information is formed from a data packet with run-in, start and useful information data, the run-in information data being used at the receiving end for the correct recovery of the data clock of the useful information data and the start information data serving for addressing the useful information data and for selectively recording the start of the useful information data and the data packet is transmitted in the half of the first or last active picture line of the television signal free of picture signals, the line half occupied with data being selected in improved 16: 9 receivers and the signal type additional information contained therein being evaluated,
  • an identification signal is added to the television signal in the area of the rear porch in at least one line per frame before transmission and / or storage and the signal type additional information contained therein is evaluated in improved 16: 9 receivers,
  • the additional signal type information comprises at least two of the following television signal types:
  • Figure 1 is a diagram for the signal assignment in the vertical blanking interval of a PAL color television signal.

  • FIG. 1 shows the current signal occupancy of the vertical blanking interval of the first field of a PAL color television signal in Germany, the numbers of the television lines concerned being plotted along the abscissa of the diagram.
  • the first half of line no. 23 is intended for the assignment of the PALplus signal type data.
  • a reflection measurement signal 101 is transmitted in line No. 10 and source data 102 are transmitted in line Mr. 16.

  • the start information data serve to address the useful information data and to selectively record the start of the useful information data in the receiver.
  • the 16: 9 receiver detects the occurrence of a fixed identifier, which is represented by the start information data. As soon as the receiver ascertains the sought identifier in the received signal, it can record and process the following useful information data in the correct phase.
  • the user information data are, for example, biphase-coded, which offers the advantage of simple code-inherent error protection. Furthermore, the signal is free of DC voltage, which is favorable for magnetic recording. To increase error protection, the useful information data can be transmitted with increased redundancy, for example in such a way that each non-inverted and inverted signal form of each data packet is transmitted sequentially, as will be explained with reference to FIG. 5.
  • Fig. 2 shows the schematic structure of the signal limiter stage of a receiver for the PALplus signal type data.
  • the limiter 23 receives a video signal 201 at its analog input, which receives PALplus signal type data signals in the time sections provided for this purpose.
  • the incoming video signal is compared in the limiter 23 with a reference voltage Uref, which is present at a second input of the limiter 23.
  • the limiter generates a "digital" random signal from the image signal component of the incoming video signal, which signal is suppressed in the subsequent evaluation. Only the data signal portion processed by the limit 23 in the incoming video signal is of interest for the evaluation. If the amplitude of the data signal contained in the video signal is greater than the reference voltage Uref, the output voltage of the digital signal output 202 corresponds to the logic state "high". If, on the other hand, the amplitude of the data signal is less than the reference voltage Uref, the output voltage of the digital signal output 202 corresponds to the logic state "low".
  • the video signal is also fed to a first peak voltage meter 21, which delivers the maximum signal amplitude Umax of the video signal 201 at its output with a time delay.
  • the minimum signal amplitude Umin of the video signal 201 is correspondingly delayed at the output of the second peak voltmeter 22.
  • the best possible limitation of the data signal contained in the video signal is when the reference voltage Uref is 50% of the sum of the maximum and minimum amplitude of the video signal.
  • the reference voltage Uref is generated by a generator 24, the inputs of which are supplied with the maximum signal amplitude Umax and the minimum signal amplitude Umin. At the output of the generator 24, the reference voltage Uref is provided, the level of which at Data signal in the steady state is (Umax + Umin) / 2.
  • FIG. 3 shows the course of the incoming information data usually used in data signals.
  • the voltage curve of the maximum signal amplitude Umax is shown in curve A, while curve B illustrates the curve of the minimum signal amplitude Umin.
  • Curve C shows the course of the reference voltage, which is obtained from the maximum and minimum signal voltages. It can be seen that an optimal reference voltage is only available after time period T1. Since the reference voltage determines the cutting threshold of the limiter 23, an error-free conversion into digital signals cannot be achieved during the interval T1 in the case of disturbed signal type data signals The amplitude corresponds to the umax of the data and its width comprises a multiple of the clock period of the data.
  • the function of the first peak voltmeter 21 is influenced by this pulse in such a way that the optimum reference voltage Uref is reached after a considerably shorter time period T2.
  • the limiter 23 of the data receiver thus works optimally at the start of the transmission of the actual incoming information data.
  • FIG. 5 shows a simple arrangement for detecting transmission errors when evaluating serial data signals, the data packets of which are transmitted in the above-mentioned manner in non-inverted and inverted signal form.
  • the arrangement shown contains a delay circuit 51, the signal delay T ent of the period speaks which is necessary for the transmission of a data packet.
  • a non-inverted and an inverted signal of a data packet 501 are present at the inputs of an adder 52 downstream of the delay circuit 51 at the same time and in phase.
  • a simple error check can thus be carried out in the second half of the transmission period, since no signal occurs at the output 502 of the adder 52 during the transmission of error-free data signals.
  • additional error protection measures for example biphase coding, are also implemented in the data packets, appropriate correction mechanisms can be applied when error signals occur at the output 502 of the adder 52.
  • FIG. 6 shows a section of a CVBS signal along a television line with a synchronous imptile 11, a burst signal 12 and an image signal 13.
  • a first section 15 on the rear porch can receive a signal type identifier. It is also possible to superimpose the signal type identifier on the burst signal in a second section 14 or to use the first and the second section for the transmission of the signal type identifier.
  • the signal type identifier must meet several criteria to ensure compatibility with conventional receivers. Neither the synchronization, nor the color demodulation or the clamping of conventional receivers may be adversely affected. These boundary conditions are met if the identification signal is implemented as a digital data signal in a DC value-free coding and the data rate is lower than the color carrier frequency, e.g. 1 Mbit / s.
  • the color demodulation and reproduction are not adversely affected. If a standard PAL signal with letterbox strips is received by a 16: 9 receiver, the signal type identifier allows the activation of a format changeover, which results in a full-format display without letterbox strips.

Abstract

Pour l'insertion compatible d'un format boîte aux lettres 16:9 dans des standards de télévision 4:3 existants, l'information d"image de l"enregistrement 16:9 est représentée par des bandes noires dans la partie inférieure et dans la partie supérieure de l'image. Pour la représentation plein format sur un récepteur 16:9, des informations additionnelles qui améliorent la qualité de l'image sont transmises dans les bandes noires résultant de la transmission compatible 4:3. Un code adéquat pour le type de signal est nécessaire pour qu'un récepteur 16:9 puisse correctement décoder les signaux de télévision. Pour éviter qu'une modification ou une altération de l'occupation de l'intervalle d'interruption verticale telle qu'elle était jusque-là, une information additionnelle relative au type de signal est transmise dans au moins une ligne par image complète dans les moitiés de la première ou de la dernière ligne d'image active du signal de télévision qui ne contiennent aucun signal d'image ou dans la région du palier du noir. Le signal de code peut être une giclée de signaux couleurs qui commence plus tôt et/ou finit plus tard et/ou un signal de données qui succède à ladite giclée de signaux de couleurs ou qui coincide avec celle-ci.
