<p>A device for determining the quality of an output signal to be generated by a signal proceesing circuit with respect to a reference signal is provided with a first series circuit for receiving the output signal and with a second series circuit for receiving the reference signal and generates an objective quality signal by means of a combining circuit coupled to the two series circuits. The poor correlation between said objective quality signal and a subjective quality signal to be assessed by human observers can be considerably improved by disposing a scaling circuit between the two series circuits for scaling at least one series circuit signal, it is furthermore also possible to scale the quality signal as a function of said scaling arrangement, and the poor correlation can be further improved by reducing, in a differential arrangement, present in the combining circuit, for determining the difference between the two series circuit signals, said difference by a certain value, preferably as a function of a series circuit signal.</p> |
