<p>An SD pixel of a luminance signal is held by a delay register section (31), and the class of the SD pixel is discriminated by a classifying section (33). A coefficient corresponding to the result of discrimination is read out of a coefficient RAM section (40) and outputted to a product-sum section (38). Pixel data of 17 taps are taken from the delay register section (31), then converted to 7 taps, and thus outputted to the product-sum section (38). The product-sum section (38) carries out product-sum operation of the pixel data and the coefficient, and outputs the result of operation as an HD pixel. An interpolation pixel operating section (42) carries out simple interpolation of pixel data of a color-signal component which is different from interpolation in the case of a luminance signal, and generates an HD pixel of the color signal. Thus, miniaturization and reduction in cost are realized. <IMAGE></p> |
