Specific parameters for 525- and 625-line NTSC, PAL and SECAM television systems (see Note 1) are set out in Table 9. NO

28、TE 1 Correct operation of the motion adaptive colour plus (MACP) process used by the PALplus system relies on the fact that points separated by 312 lines within a frame have a precise phase relationship. In order to avoid disturbing this relationship, any changes to the equalization of the signal ap

29、plied by a ghost canceller located in either the transmission or reception chain should preferably be made during the period of lines 624 to 22. The GCR signal is placed on a single line in the vertical blanking interval, on one line per field in 525-line systems, and on one line per frame (two fiel

30、ds) in 625-line systems. The GCR signal has a flat spectrum and high energy up to the frequency f1 and has low energy beyond the frequency f2. The values of f1 and f2 are shown in Table 9. Figure 6 shows the spectrum of the GCR signal. The normalized GCR signal as a function of time is shown in Fig.

31、 7. In 525-line systems, the GCR signal is placed on line 19 (and the corresponding line in the following field). In 625-line systems, the GCR signal is preferably placed on line 318, with the preceding line 317 containing no time-varying information. For both 625- and 525-line systems the line imme

32、diately preceding the GCR line should preferably not contain time varying information to avoid constraining the performance of ghost cancellers. To provide efficient cancellation of 625-(525)-line systems requiring post ghost cancellation ranges greater than approximately 38 (31) s, at least the fol

33、lowing line should preferably not contain any time-varying information (e.g. if line 318 (19 and 282) is used for the GCR then line 319 (20 and 283) should not contain time varying information. The GCR has nominally constant amplitude within the band of interest, and is placed on a pedestal of heigh

34、t V1. The rise and fall times of the pedestal are nominally 4 T, and the start and finish times to the half amplitude points, with respect to the leading edge of the horizontal sync are T1 and T2 respectively. The values of V1, T1 and T2 are given in Table 9. The GCR signal has a duration of T3 (mea

35、sured at 1% of the maximum value) and begins at time T4 after the leading edge of horizontal sync. The first peak (positive or negative) is T5 after the leading edge of horizontal sync. The GCR varies from V2 to V3. Note that the pedestal V1 is the mean of these extreme values. The values of T3, T4,

36、 T5, V2 and V3 are given in Table 9. Waveforms of the GCR signal on the pedestal are shown in Figs. 8 and 9 represent line A and line B respectively. Line A and line B have the same pedestal height V1, but the GCR polarity is inverted from line A to line B. 12 Rec. ITU-R BT.1124-3 TABLE 9 Television

It is suggested

40、 that for television system N, the GCR signal for bandwidth 5 MHz described in this Recommendation for 625-line signals be used, but the band limited to the available vision bandwidth.
