A luminance band pass filter permits manual adjustments to a lower range of video signal frequencies and thus changes to white level picture information. One version of the S-video signal processor includes a positive feedback network which permits user adjustments in an upper video signal frequency range having picture super detail information for providing a picture of high resolution and thus pleasing to the user. In a second version a compensation amplifier is used to alter the frequency response of the luminance signal.

Abstract: For an S-video signal, providing luminance and chrominance, luminance is amplified and adjusted over selected frequency ranges for shaping the S-video signal response for permitting the S-video signal to be transmitted over exceptionally long transmission lines while providing a quality picture. In separate channels, chrominance and luminance signals are amplified and impedance matched. A luminance band pass filter permits manual adjustments to a lower range of video signal frequencies and thus changes to white level picture information. A positive feedback network permits user adjustments in an upper video signal frequency range having picture super detail information for providing a picture of high resolution and thus pleasing to the user. A clear picture, brighter and sharper, rather than simply a brighter picture is available whether transmitted over a few or few hundred feet from a video source to the monitor.

Abstract: A circuit is provided for precorrecting an aural carrier signal in a common amplifier system in a television transmitter wherein an aural frequency signal and a visual signal are commonly amplified. The precorrecting serves to minimize cross-modulation distortion of the aural carrier caused by the common amplification. A visual carrier signal is modulated by a video baseband signal to provide a modulated video signal from which there is provided a sampled video signal. This sampled video signal is supplied to an aural corrector which provides from the sampled video signal a phase correction signal and an amplitude correction signal. The phase correction signal and amplitude correction signal are used to modulate an aural carrier signal to provide a precorrected aural signal which is then combined with the video signal to provide a combined signal.
