Programmable Test-Bed for Composite Television Coding

R. C. Brainard, J. V. Scattaglia

This paper describes a test-bed to study systems for processing composite color television for bandwidth compression. The intent of this paper is to describe the flexibility inherent in the test-bed and the wide range of possible demonstrations rather than specific design results. The test-bed is a research tool intended to demonstrate various new algorithms and new ways of using and connecting DPCM and adaptive DPCM systems. The system operates at a clock frequency of four times color carrier (14.3 18 MHz). A clock frequency of three times color carrier can also be used.
