Description

1 0 2 24 94 31 CIRCUIT FOR FOLDING AND UNFOLDING VIDEO SIGNAL The present
invention relates to a video recording ard playback apparatus using a frequency folding technique to record lots of video information, and more particularly to a frequency folding and unfolding circuit for expanding a bandwidth of a base video signal limited by frequency folding up to the limited bandwidth of a record medium.
Current home VCRs record video signals onto video tape cassettes in one of several formats. The well-known VHS system produces degraded picture quality chiefly because there is insufficient horizontal resolution.
Generally, an enhanced VHS system, called Super VHS (hereinafter, referred to as --VHS), produces enhanced picture quality by recording a full bandwidth video signal on the video tape cassette, thus yielding improved picture quality. Such a system requires higher quality tape in the cassette, and higher quality recording mechanisms, playback mechanisms and circuitry. However, the S-VHS system is not reverse compatible with standard VHS VCRs. Although a S-VHS VCR can play back cassettes recorded on either S-VHS or standard VHS VCRs, a standard VHS VCR cannot playback cassettes recorded on S-VHS VCRs. There is an enhanced video recording and reproducing apparatus disclosed in U.S. patent application no. 07-569029 filed by Samsung Electronics Co. of Korea on August 17, 1990. This video 1 recording and reproducing apparatus can record a wider bandwidth video signal than that recorded by the standard VHS VCR on a standard quality cassette, and also maintain compatibility with the standard VHS VCR which has been a problem with the S-VHS VCR, and does not require a high quality recording and reproducing apparatus. According -.1o, the U.S. patent application no. 07-569029, during a recording, high frequency components of a luminance signal are attenuated, and the attenuated high frequency components are folded with low frequency components by a subNycuist sampling, and the folded signal is filtered. All of the informat4l on existing on the full bandwidth luminance signal is included in the folded luminance signal of aDprcximately 2.5 MHz bandwidth. And, during reproduction, to unfold all of the information existing in the full bandwidth lum-Inance signal included in the folded luminance signal of approximately 2.5 MHz bandwidth to the original band, the reproduced luminance signal is filtered by a low-pass filter having a cut-off frequency of approximately 2. 5 MH_-, and the filtered luminance signal is unfolded to be distributed in the original frequency band. Conclusively, the invention disclosed in the U.S. patent application no. 07-569029 processes the luminance signal within 2.5 MHz during the recording and the reproducing.
However, the standard VHS VCR can record and reproduce the luminance signal within approximately 3 MHZ on the videc 1) tape cassette. Thus, when a video taoe cassette recorded by the VCR disclosed in the U.S-. patent application no. 07569029 is played back by a standard VHS VCR, video information distributed in the frequency band above 2.5 MHz is lost. Also, when a video tape cassette recorded by the standard VHS VCR is played back by the VCR disclosed in the U.S. patent application no. 07-569029, the video information distributed in the frequency band above 2.5 MHz is lost.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a video signal folding and unfolding circuit which can expand the frequency band of recorded and reproduced video signals te the limited bandwidth of a record medium tc prevent a loss of high frequency luminance signal while being compatible with a standard VHS VCR.
To achieve the object, a video signal folding circ;uit of the present invention comprises:
an A-D converter for converting a full bandwidth video signal to a multibit digital video signal; a luminance signal separator for separating a full bandwidth luminance signal from the digital video signal; a frequency folder for folding a high frequency luminance signal of the full bandwidth luminance signal into limited low frequency luminance signal, thereby producing limited bandwidth folded luminance signal; 3 an adder for adding the limited bandwidth folded luminance signal and the full bandwidth luminance signal; a D-A converter for converting the added digital luminance signal into an analog signal; a luminance signal recorder for modulating an output of the D-A converter to be recorded on the record med4;um; and a recording element for recording an output of the luminance signal recorder on the record medium.
To achieve the object, a video signal unfolding circuit of the present invention comprises:
a read out element for reading out information recorded on a record medium; a luminance signal reproducer for demodulating the information read out by the read out element to reproduce the luminance signal; an A-D converter for converting the reproduced luminance signal into a digital luminance signal; a frequency unfolder for unfolding the high frequency luminance signal folded with the limited low frequency luminance signal of said digital luminance signal, to the original occupJed band; and 4 an adder for adding outputs of the frequency unfolder and the A-D converter.

At this time, the luminance signal L has a bandwidth such as in FIG.2A.
7 The chrominance signal separator 21 separates a chrominance signal C from the digital composite video signal DCV.
After attenuating high frequency components ( luminance signal above 2.5 MHz) of the luminance signal L, the frequency folder 30 folds the high frequency luminance signal into a low frequency luminance signal, as shown in FIG.2B, by a subNyquist sampling, and then low-pass filters the folded luminance signal to have a high frequency cut-off characteristic at 2.5 MHz, thereby producing a folded luminance signal L as shown -in FIG.2C.

The magnetic reproducing head 100 reads out the information recorded on a video tape cassette and supplies it to the chrominance / luminance signal separator 110.
The chrominance /luminance si.gnal separator 110 separates a frequency modulated lumiimnce signal and an amplitude modulated chrominance signal from the information supplied from the magnetic reproducing bead 100.
The luminance signal reprozWcer 120 frequency- 11 demodulates the frequency modulated luminance separated from the chrominance / luminance signal a frequency signal, separator 110, thereby producing a luminance signal. The luminance signal generated in the luminance signal reproducer 120 has characteristic as shown in FIG.4A, when a reproduced video tape cassette is one wherein a video signal is recorded by a standard VHS VCR. Conversely, the luminance signal has a frequency characteristic as shown in FIG.4B, when a reproduced video tape cassette is one wherein a video signal is recorded by the VCR of the present invention.
The A-D converter 130 converts the demodulated luminance signal to a multibit digital video signal.
The low-pass filter 140 filters the digital luminance signal to detect a luminance signal distributed in a limited bandwidth ( within 2.5 MHz). When the luminance signal having a frequency characteristic such as that of FIG.4A is fed to the low-pass filter 140, the filtered luminance signal has a frequency characteristic such as that of FIG.4C, and when the luminance signal having a frequency characteristic such as that of FIG.4B is fed to the low-pass filter 140, the filtered luminance signal has a frequency characteristic such as that of FIG.4D.
After unfolding the folded high frequency luminance component of the filtered limited bandwidth luminance signal 12 1 received from the low-pass filter 140 into the original frequency band, the frequency unfolder 150 suitably combines the low frequency luminance signal and the high frequency luminance signal according to the magnitude of the motion signal supplied from the chrominance /motion signal separator 111, thereby producing a full bandwidth luminance signal. When the luminance signal having the frequency characteristic such as that of FIG.4C is fed to the frequency unfolder 150, the luminance signal supplied from the frequency unfolder 150 has a frequency characteristic such as that of FIG.4F, and when the luminance signal having a frequency characteristic such as that of FIG.4D is fed to the frequency unfolder 150, the luminance signal has a frequency characteristic such as that FIG. 4G.
The baseband processor 141 filters the digi.1lal luminance signal to detect the luminance signal distributed in a frequency band within 3 MHz which is a limited bandwidth of a video tape cassette, and removes the folded high frequency luminance signal of the detected luminance signal to produce the luminance signal having the frequency characteristic such as in FIG.4E.
The adder 160 sums the luminance signal generated in the frequency unfolder 150 and the luminance signal processed in the baseband processor 141, thereby producing the luminance signal having the frequency characteristic of FIG.4E when the video tape cassette recorded by a standard 13 VHS VCR is played back, and producing the luminance signal having the frequency characteristic of FIG.4G when the video tape cassette recorded by a VCR of the present invention is played back.
The D-A converter 132 converts the output of the adder 160 to an analog signal.
The chrominance signal reproducer 170 amplitudedemodulates the amplitude modulated chrominance signal to produce a chrominance signal. The chrominance signal includes a motion signal, when the video tape cassette recorded by the VCR of the present invention is played back.
The AD converter 131 converts the demodulated chrominance signal into a digital chrominance signal.
The chrominance / motion signal separator 111 separates a motion signal and a chrominance signal from the digital chrominance signal, and then supplies the motion signal to the frequency unfolder 150 and supplies the chrominance signal to the D-A converter 133.
The DA converter 133 converts the digital chrominance signal, which is an output of the chrominance motion signal separator 111, into an analog signal.
The composite video signal generator 180 is operated by the conventional method to combine the luminance signal 14 supplied from the D-A converter 132 and the chrominance signal supplied from the D-A converter 133, thereby forming a standard composite video signal.
As described above, according to the present invention, a second passage, i.e. a baseband processor, for processing the luminance signal distributed in the limited bandwidth of a record medium is added to a frequency folding passage or a frequency unfolding passage, i.e., a first passage, for processing a luminance signal distributed in the limited band, so that the luminance signal of the limited frequency band is recorded and reproduced together with the folded luminance signal on a record medium. Thus, there is an advantage in that the resolution of the VCR according to the present invention is identical with that of the standard VHS VCR, when being compatible with the standard VHS VCR.
