Abstract
Abstract The motion detection circuit is so constructed that an interframe difference signal is passed through a horizontal direction LPF (3) and a vertical direction LPF (10) in cascade connection, and the interframe difference signal (α) thus obtained is divided by the value (8) obtained by mixing an edge signal of an image and the image level signal of the image by a mixing circuit (9), thus providing a motion signal.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
A motion detection circuit comprising: means (1, 2) for producing a interframe difference signal of a sub-sampled image signal; filter means (101) for removing, from the interframe difference signal outputted from the producing means (1, 2), its aliased portion; detection means (5) for detecting an edge of the image signal; mixing means (9) for mixing an absolute value of a level of the image signal and an absolute value of an output signal from the detection means (5); and dividing means (7) for dividing an absolute value of an output signal from the filter means (101) by an output signal from the mixing means (3) to provide a motion signal.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
110 words
A motion detection circuit comprising: means (1, 2) for producing a interframe difference signal of a sub-sampled image signal; filter means (101) for removing, from the interframe difference signal outputted from the producing means (1, 2), its aliased portion; detection means (5) for detecting an edge of the image signal; mixing means (9) for mixing an absolute value of a level of the image signal and an absolute value of an output signal from the detection means (5); and dividing means (7) for dividing an absolute value of an output signal from the filter means (101) by an output signal from the mixing means (3) to provide a motion signal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
31 words
A motion detection circuit according to Claim 1, wherein the filter means (101) comprises filter means (3) for removing the aliased portion of the interframe difference signal in the horizontal direction.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
42 words
A motion detection circuit according to Claim 1, wherein the filter means comprises filter means (3) for removing the aliased portion of the interframe difference signal in the horizontal direction and another filter means (10) for removing that in the vertical direction.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
A motion detection circuit according to Claim 1, wherein the mixing means (9) linearly mixes the absolute value of the level of the image signal and the absolute value of the output signal from the detection means (5).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
38 words
A motion detection circuit according to Claim 4, wherein weighting coefficients are provided to the absolute value of the level of the image signal and the absolute value of the output signal from the detection means (5), respectively.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
38 words
A motion detection circuit according to Claim 1, wherein the mixing means (9) non-linearly mixes the absolute value of the level of said image signal and the absolute value of the output signal from the detection means (5).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
29 words
A motion detection circuit according to Claim 1, wherein the producing means for producing the interframe difference signal is constituted by frame memory means (1) and a substracter (2).
