Abstract

1386604 Colour television BRITISH BROADCASTING CORP 12 June 1972 [1 June 1971] 18371/71 Heading H4F The black and white levels of the red, green, blue colour video signals from a television camera or telecine apparatus are adjusted to remove errors in the signals. The black levels are set using clamp circuits 28 controlled by corrector 20 receiving the output signals via feedback loop 18. Corrector 20 may operate in each field to set the black level of the green signal equal to areference level, the black levels of the red and blue signals then being made equal to the black level of the green signal. A variable gain amplifier 26 in the green channel is adjusted in each field by a circuit 22 to make the maximum value of the largest of the three colour signals equal to a predetermined value, variable gain amplifiers 26 for the red and blue signals being controlled by an "integrate to grey" circuit 24 so as to make the time integrals of the red, green and blue signals equal. Circuit 22 may control all three variable gain amplifiers 26, in which case "integrate to grey" circuit 24 may be omitted.
