Abstract: A digital video signal processing system monitors the rate of change of the digital video signal to detect large rates of change that indicate the presence of an object edge in the video image. Upon detection of such an edge, the digital signal is sampled at a variable rate so that more sampling is performed immediately before and after the sudden change in the signal and less sampling is performed during the change.

Consequently, the appearance of the video image is enhanced. This can be considered as the digital analogue of analog H-sweep velocity modulation.

Abstract: A video signal is applied to a kinescope having scan velocity modulation for improving picture sharpness in the vertical direction. Pictures from video signals of a type having non-interpolated and vertically interpolated lines (e.g., interlace-progressive up-converted) will tend to exhibit a significant reduction of sharpness in vertical direction.

Furthermore, the vertical deflection is restricted to horizontal structures or real vertical transitions, respectively. In order to have a high noise immunity of this sensitive processing, the resulting luminance amplitude of the shifted line as well as the vertical deflection is controlled to be strongly dependent on the current video signal (soft decision).
