Abstract

See full text

Television systems that transmit dither-quantized samples for psychovisually compressed signalling are improved by substituting novel multi-phase dithers of the invention for previously known multi-phase dithers. The improved dithers comprise ordered-dither frame patterns and typically have sixteen or eight phases and sixteen sizes of dither samples. A first variety, not self-interpolating, merely shifts the frame-pattern structure from frame-to-frame. Methods and means are disclosed for generating novel self-interpolating dithers with sixteen or eight phases, including preferred dithers. Self-interpolating dithers are generally superior and they also facilitate receiver display of more quantum levels than actually transmitted.
