Abstract

See full text

In a receiver for receiving digital television (DTV) signals with carriers near the upper frequency boundaries of TV broadcasting channels, co-channel interfering NTSC video carrier and its lower frequency sidebands are removed from intermediate-frequency signal by trap filtering, preferably in SAW filtering used in the intermediate-frequency amplifier. Co-channel interfering NTSC chroma burst and lower frequency chroma sidebands also are removed from intermediate-frequency signal by trap filtering. Artifacts of co-channel interfering NTSC audio signal in baseband DTV signal recovered by in-phase synchrodyne circuitry are cancelled using Hilbert-transformed artifacts of co-channel interfering NTSC audio signal recovered by quadrature-phase synchrodyne circuitry. Locating DTV carriers close to 270 kHz below the uppermost limits of the TV broadcasting channels facilitates artifacts arising from chroma signals, video carriers and low-frequency video modulation of co-channel interfering NTSC signals being further reduced using comb filtering.
