NOISE DETECTOR, NOISE DETECTION METHOD, SIGNAL PROCESSOR AND SIGNAL PROCESSING METHOD

摘要

A ringing detector detects mosquito noise and ringing for outputting an image signal smoothed by a horizontal/vertical high-pass filter when mosquito noise and ringing are detected while outputting the image signal as such when neither mosquito noise nor ringing is detected, thereby properly correcting the image signal without reducing the texture specific to the image signal also in a portion continuously exhibiting fine details.
