Anamorphic Television Circuit Requirements

This paper discusses theoretical circuit requirements for anamorphic television,¹ producing a wide-screen image (high aspect ratio) at the receiver. The relation of aspect ratio to pictorial information as regards frequency band, defined by the first elided frequency, is discussed. Pictorial information is defined in terms of contrast and resolution. The anamorphic squeeze and unsqueeze are described. Low-noise video and novel EIA timing circuits are shown.
