Experiments with an Enhanced-Quality NTSC-Compatible TV System

Yoshio Sugimori, Yoshihide Kimata, Yosai Araki

Nippon Television Network (NTV) is conducting experiments with an enhanced-quality television system that is compatible with the NTSC system. The experimental system is expected to improve resolution, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and progressive scan, and to eliminate cross color and cross luminance. These improvements will increase the assessment of screen quality by two rating points. It will be possible to put the system into practical use within two years in Japan. Standardization of enhanced-quality television is currently being studied, and these experiments should play an important role in the deliberations.
