Abstract

Abstract Translated from Japanese (57)【要約】 【目的】 本発明は、ダイナミックレンジが小さいブラ ウン管を有効に使うための階調補正回路に関するもの で、コントラスト回路を通過した映像信号に対して、ま たどのようなコントラストの値の映像信号に対しても映 像が白っぽくならずに本来の補正を行うことを目的とす る。 【構成】 入力された映像信号のフィールド毎の累積ヒ ストグラムをとり結果を出力する累積ヒストグラム回路 1と、前記累積ヒストグラム回路1の出力に第1の定数 を乗算する第1の乗算回路2と、前記第1の乗算回路2 の出力を全サンプル数で除算し正規化し出力する正規化 回路3と、前記正規化回路3の出力と入力された映像信 号を用い画素毎の補正値を出力する補間回路4と、前記 補間回路4の出力に第2の定数を乗算する第2の乗算回 路5と、前記第2の乗算回路5の出力を入力された映像 信号に加算する加算回路6を備えた階調補正回路。 (57) [Summary] [Object] The present invention relates to a gradation correction circuit for effectively using a cathode ray tube having a small dynamic range, and what contrast value is applied to a video signal that has passed through a contrast circuit. The purpose is to perform the original correction for the video signal of without causing the video to be whitish. A cumulative histogram circuit 1 for taking a cumulative histogram for each field of an input video signal and outputting a result, a first multiplication circuit 2 for multiplying an output of the cumulative histogram circuit 1 by a first constant, First multiplication circuit 2 A normalization circuit 3 which divides the output of ## EQU1 ## by the total number of samples and outputs the normalized value; an interpolation circuit 4 which outputs a correction value for each pixel using the output of the normalization circuit 3 and the input video signal; A gradation correction circuit including a second multiplication circuit 5 that multiplies the output of 4 by a second constant, and an addition circuit 6 that adds the output of the second multiplication circuit 5 to the input video signal.
