Description
2265047 ERROR CORRECTION IN DIGITAL RECORDING 1- The present invention
relates to error correction in digital reording, and particularly although not exclusively to an error correcting method and 5 apparatus of a digital video tape recorder (VTR).
A digital VTR records and/or reproduces image information as a digital signal, which has advantages over a conventional analog magnetic recording/reproducing apparatus, such as increased signal-to-noise ratio, increased resolution, easy editing, etc. Such a digital VTR typically converts an analog signal of a frame image into a digital signal, and stores the converted signal in a frame memory. The data stored in the frame memory is partitioned into unit blocks, and then compressed by a discrete cosine transform (hereinafter referred to as "DCT") operation and a Huffman variable-length coding. Each compressed unit block is added by an error correction code (inner parity), and then reorganized in another frame memory according to its original position. An outer parity block having another error correction code (outer parity) is added to each unit block in the vertical direction of the reorganized frame memory. The unit block and outer parity block are added with sync signal and block address, and then sequentially recorded on tracks of a tape. During reproduction, the unit block and outer parity block are reproduced from a pick-up signal generated by a head scanning the track, and the reproduced unit blocks or outer parity blocks are recorded in the frame memory in accordance with each block address. After that, error correction by the outer and inner parities, inverse Huffman variable coding, and inverse DCT are performed with respect to the unit blocks recorded in the frame memory. The digital signal having been subjected to j the inverse DCT is analog-converted, so that the analog signal representing the original image becomes reproduced.
The unit block is converted into an energy function having DC and AC coefficients by the DCT. A characteristic of the DCT is in that almost all energy of a signal converges on the low-frequency portion. In the Huffman variable-length coding, the coefficients of the frequency function are variable length-coded. To execute a variable tape-speed reproduction, the recording has to be carried out by compressing the bit amount of each unit block to be constant. When each block is compressed to have a constant bit amount, simple and complex portions in the original picture are compressed to the same bit amount, so that reproducibility of the complex portion degrades as compared with that of the simple portion during reproduction. Accordingly, to provide overall uniform reproducibility in the picture during normal reproduction, the relative complexity of a frame is calculated, and the bit amount of each unit block is adjusted. That is, fewer bits are allocated to the simple portions, and more bits are allocated to the complex portions.
U.K. Patent application 92 16119.9 (priority claim based on Korean patent application No. 92-4227) filed by this applicant discloses a method wherein recording is carried out by separating a unit block into an independent decodable code (hereinafter simply referred to as 'MC) having almost all information needed for reproducing the original image and a dependent decodable code (hereinafter simply referred to as "DDC") having the remaining information. In this method, the original image is reproduced by utilizing both MC and MC during normal reproduction, and MC only during variable tape-speed reproduction, which makes the variable tape- speed reproduction simple and easy. Also, in spite of the occurrence of mismatched sync blocks due to traversing the heads on several tracks during variable tape speed reproduction, an image which is almost the same as the original image can be reproduced, provided that the MC is detected, which is one portion of the unit block. Therefore, it is preferable that MC and MC are recorded by separate way of error correction encoding, to enhance reproduction rate of the recorded data during reproduction.

For a better understanding of the invention, and to show how the same may be carried into effect, reference will now be made, by way of example, to the accompanying diagrammatic drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a block diagram showing a construction of a recording system in a digital VTR; Figure 2 is a block diagram showing the detailed construction of one example of an error correction encoder according to the present invention; Figure 3 shows the formation of data written in a first memory o Figure 2, and its read/write state; Figure 4 shows the formation of data written in a second memory of Figure 2, and its read/write state; Figures SA and 5B show formations of an independent decodable code data and a dependent decodable code data, respectively, to which an inner parity is added by an inner parity encoder of Figure 2; Figure 6 shows the formation of data written in a third memory of Figure 2, and its read/write state; Figure 7 is a block diagram showing a construction of a reproducing system in a digital VTR; and Figure 8 is a block diagram showing the detailed construction of an example of an error correction decoder according to the present invention.

Figure 2 shows the construction of the example of an error correction encoder according to the present invention.
In Figure 2, reference numeral 20 designates a block ID generator for supplying a block identification QD) signal for each unit block (sync block); 22 is a vector-to-alpha converter for converting the input data into involutions of an et value which is the root of a primitive polynomial expression of a Reed-Solomon (RS) code; 24 and 26 are a first memory and a first memory controller, respectively, which re-arrange and output the data for encoding an outer parity of the RS code having passed through vector-to-alpha converter 22; 28 is an outer parity encoder for adding an outer parity to the sync block in the column direction output from first memory 24; 30 and 32 are a second memory and a second memory controller which re-arrange the data for encoding an inner parity of the sync block having passed through outer parity encoder 28; 34 is a demultiplexer which separates a sync block from second memory 30 into a block ID signal, an IDC and a DDC; 36 and 38 are first and second inner parity encoders which add the respective inner parities to the block ID signal and IDC, and DDC; 40 is a multiplexer for combining the outputs from first and second inner parity encoders 36 and 38; 42 and 44 are a third memory and a third memory controller which re- arrange and output the sync block recorded on tape 16; and 46 is a sync generator which adds a sync code for each sync block.
The operation of the apparatus illustrated in Figure 2 will be described in detail.
The sync block output from image compressor 10 shown in Figure 1 is composed of the IDC and DDC. The IDC is data for variable tape-speed reproduction, which, e.g. includes a DC component and several lowfrequency components in DCT, or is the result of a first vector quantization in a vector quantization method. The DDC is that portion other than the above-described portion. The input sync blocks are added by an ID signal which defines each sync block from block ID generator 20, and supplied to first memory 24 by being converted into involutions of a which is the root of a primitive polynomial expression of an RS code by vector-to-alpha converter 22.
Hereinbelow, the operation of the first memory will be described with reference to Figure 3.
As shown in Figure 3, the sync blocks input to first memory 24 are written in the X-direction, read out in bit units in the Y-direction, and then supplied to outer parity encoder 28, under the control of first memory controller 26.
The operations of outer parity encoder 28, second memory 30, and second memory controller 32 will be described with reference to Figure 4.
As illustrated in Figure 4, outer parity encoder 28 performs outer parity encoding with respect to an M-bit which has been read out under the control of first memory controller 26, and adds outer parity (OP) numbers, thereby supplying the combined result to second memory 30. The data input to second memory 30 is written in the Y-direction under the control of second memory controller 32, read out in sync-block units in the Xdirection, and separated into a "block ID signal and IDC" and a "DDC" by demultiplexer 34, thereby being supplied to first inner parity encoder 36 and second inner parity encoder 38.
The operations of inner parity encoders 36 and 38 will be described with reference to Figures SA and 5B.
First inner parity encoder 36 performs inner parity encoding of "the block ID signal (A) and IDC data (B)" or "the outer parity with respect to the ID and MC data", thereby adding first inner parity number IP1, as shown in Figure SA. Second inner parity encoder 38 performs inner parity encoding of "the MC data (C)" or "the outer parity with respect to the MC data", thereby adding a second inner parity number IP2, as shown in Figure 5B. The outputs of the inner parity encoders are alternately selected by multiplexer 40, and supplied to third memory 42.
The operations of third memory 42 and third memory controller 44 will be described with reference to Figure 6.
The outputs from first and second inner parity encoders 36 and 38 are multiplexed by multiplexer 40, and supplied to third memory 42. Under the control of third memory controller 24, the data written in third memory 42 is read out in the X-direction in sync-block units as shown in Figure 7, and then supplied to sync generator 46. Sync generator 46 adds a sync code to each sync block, thereby supplying the result to channel encoder 14 of Figure 1.
-12 Figure 7 illustrates the construction of a reproducing system in a digital VTR.
In Figure 7, the signal recorded on a tape 76 is channel-decoded via a channel decoder 74, and error compensation or correction is carried out by inner or outer parity via an error correction decoder 72. Tben, the original signal (RGB, or luma signal and color difference signals) is demodulated by an image expander 70.
Figure 8 illustrates the example of a decoder for error-correcting codes according to the present invention.
In Figure 8, reference numeral 80 designates a sync signal detector; 82 and 84 are a fourth memory and a fourth memory controller, respectively, which re-arrange and output data to separate the sync block into a first group consisting of the block ID signal, IDC and the first inner parity, and a second group consisting of DDC and the second inner parity to which the inner parities are added; 86 is a demultiplexer which separates the data from fourth memory 82 into "the first group and the second group" or "the outer parity 20 with respect to the ID and IDC data and the outer parity with respect to the DDC data"; 88 and 90 are inner parity decoders; 92 is a two-dimensional error flag memory; 94 is an address generator for generating a display address to two-dimensional flag memory 92 by the error signal from inner parity decoders 88 and 90; 96 is a multiplexer for selectively outputting the block ID signal, IDC and DDC data decoded with the inner parities; 98 and 100 are a fifth memory and a fifth memory controller, respectively, which combine the block ID signal, IDC and DDC data decoded by inner parities and rearrange them to be output; 102 is an outer parity decoder; 104 is a switch controlled to barricade the data transferring path by an error signal ERR1 from the first inner parity decoder 88; 106 is a buffer; 108 is a selector which selectively outputs the outputs from outer parity decoder 102 and buffer 106 in accordance with an externally supplied signal which indicates the variable tape-speed reproduction; and 110 is an alpha-to-vector converter for vector converting the data which has been converted into the form of involutions of cl.
In operation of the apparatus shown in Figure 8, sync signal detector 80 detects a sync code included in the input binary data column, and supplies it to fourth memory 82 by segmenting into sync-block units. As shown in Figure 6, fourth memory 82 is written by the input sync block-unit data under the control of fourth memory controller 84, reads out in the X-direction, and supplies the sync block-unit data to demultiplexer 86. Demultiplexer 86 alternately selects the first group and the second group among the input sync block-unit data, and supplies them to first inner parity decoder 88 and second inner parity decoder 90, respectively.
First and second inner parity decoders 88 and 90 carry out error correction to "the first group and the second group" or "the outer parity with respect to the ID and IDC data and the outer parity with respect to the DDC data", and according to their respective inner parities, supply them to multiplexer 96. Multiplexer 96 alternately selects the outputs from first and second inner parity decoders 88 and 90, and supplies them to fifth memory 98.
As shown in Figure 4, under the control of fifth memory controller fifth memory 98 writes the "block ID signal and IDC and DDW or "the outer parity with respect to the ID and MC and the outer parity with respect to the MW' decoded by inner parities in multiplexer 96 in the X- direction, and reads out in sync-block units in the Y-direction, thereby supplying them to outer parity decoder 102.
When an error exceeds the limitation of error correction by inner parities, inner parity decoders 88 and 90 generate error signals ERR1 and ERR2 and supply them to two-dimensional error flag memory 92. Twodimensional memory 92 writes the position of a sync block where an error occurs with reference to error signals ERR1 and ERR2 and an address ADDR in address generator 94. Outer parity decoder 102 carries out the error correction to the sync block where the uncorrectable inner parity error occurs, referring to two-dimensional error flag memory 92, and supplies them to a selector 108. The output of selector 108 is supplied to alpha- to-vector converter 110. and output by being converted into the original vector form from involutions of a which is the root of a primitive polynomial expression of an RS code.
On the other hand, in variable tape-speed reproduction, selector 108 is controlled to select buffer 106 by a variable tape-speed reproduction signal, thereby outputting only the "block ID signal and IDC" output from first inner parity decoder 88 via a path formed by switch 104, buffer 106, selector 108, and alpha-to-vector converter 110. Switch 104 is controlled to output toward buffer 106 only when the data supplied from first inner parity decoder 88 by error signal ERR1 has no defects. At this time, since the data from switch 104 is not the data which has successive block ID signals, a queue-type buffer is required. The error correcting path corresponding to the normal reproduction and the variable tape-speed reproduction operations is selected by controlling selector 108 in accordance with a tape-speed control signal which indicates variable tape-speed reproduction.
It will be apparent that many modifications and variations could be effected easily by one skilled in the art without departing from the spirit or scope of the novel concepts of the present invention.
