Definitions

  • the present invention relates to television and like systems, and is particularly but not exclusively concerned with the problem of synchronising a scanning operation at a receiver of a television system with theA scanning operation vtaking place at the transmitter.
  • rFwo sets of synchronising impulses areusually transmitted; an impulse, known generally as a strip impulse, is generated'immediately before or after the scanning of each strip of the picture to be transmitted, and a frame impulse is generated between complete scans of the picture or, in the case in which the object ⁇ to be transmitted is a cinematograph film, between the scanning of successive frames.
  • the strip impulses are generally arranged to be of substantially the same amplitude as the frame impulses.
  • this filter is to attenuate the strip impulses relatively to the frame impulses, with the result that the impulsesare made to differ considerably in amplitude; they may then be separated from one another by an amplitude separation, or fed to a saw-tooth oscillation generator such for example as a blocking oscillator which requires an impulse of greater than a critical amplitude to trigger itv off.
  • a saw-tooth oscillation generator such for example as a blocking oscillator which requires an impulse of greater than a critical amplitude to trigger itv off.
  • vthis may be ⁇ achieved by means of a high-pass lter.
  • the time constant of the separating meansv is at least of the same order as the shortest interval to .
  • the distortion above mentioned may take the following form: the strips in the reproduced picture may not be evenly interlaced, but may overlap one another, successive groups each comprising a number of strips equal to the number of part-scans making up a spaces.
  • impulses occurring near to theend of a strip is less than the residual charge which is curring near to the middle of a strip. The latter cillator too soon, and the strips in the reproduced pulses,
  • the present invention accordingly provides a method of separating impulses of relatively long duration from impulses of a relatively short Vduration, which method comprises the step of converting said impulses into derived pulses, the amplitude of each of which increases during a period of time substantially equal to the duration of the corresponding impulse to a maximum value which is dependent on said duration, andthen falls to a minimum value at a rate which is greater than that of the increase and such that said minimum value is substantially fixed.
  • yit may be necessary to make the rate at which the amplitude of the derived pulses falls more rapid when the impulses succeed one another closely than when they are more widely spaced.
  • the invention further provides, for use in television systems, a method of separating frame impulses of relatively long luration -from strip impulses of ⁇ relatively short duration, which method comprises the step of converting said impulses into derived pulses, the amplitude of each of which increases, duringa period of time substantially equal to the ⁇ duration of the corresponding impulse, to a. value which is dependent on said duration.- and then falls, ata rate which is greater than that of the increase, and is such that, at least in the case of a pulse derived from a line impulse, a substantially fixed value is reached beforethe arrival of the next impulse.
  • apparatus for separating impulses of relatively long duration from impulses of relatively short duration comprises an impedance element, and controlling means adapted to be fed with both long and short impulses and to cause the chargeA held by said impedance element to be changed in one sense during the impulses and in the opposite sense during the intervals between impulses, .characterised in that the time constant ofthe circuit determining the rate of change during impulses is much longer than the time constant 'of the circuit determining the rate of change duringintervals between impulses.
  • the time constant of the first-named circuit may be veormore times that of the second-named circuit.
  • the invention also provides a method of operating apparatus according to the preceding paragraph, according to which the time constant of the second-named circuit is made much shorter than the interval between any short impulse and a longer impulse following it. According to another method of operating apparatus according 4to the preceding paragraph, the time constant ofthe rst-named circuit is made longer than the duration'of a long impulse.
  • the controlling means may be arranged to prevent appreciable charging current flowing in said impedance element except when either a long or a short impulse is operative upon said controlling means.
  • the impedance element may be a condenser, in which case two sets of substantially triangular voltage "pulses of diiierent amplitude are set up across the ⁇ condenser or it may be an inductance coil. In the latter case, the charging current is conveniently caused to flow in a resistance arranged in'series with the coil; triangular voltage pulses are then set up across the resistance.
  • the triangular pulses oflarger amplitude may then be separated from those of smaller amplitude by an amplitude selection for example.
  • the triangular pulses may be fed directly to a utilising device which in the case of a television system .
  • a utilising device which in the case of a television system .
