<p>A digital subsystem for improving the resolution of a TV digital signal by inserting additional digital samples into the digital TB signal in response to the correspondence of the digital signal and predefined patterns. The digital subsystem is a logic circuit which is responsive to received digital samples to group (502, 504) these digital samples into sets of samples. The digital circuit then calculates (505, 506, 507, 508, 510, 513, 521, 522, 523, 528) the slope between pairs of digital samples of each set and utilizes the calculated slopes to determine the correspondence to the predefined patterns. The determined predefined pattern designates the digital sample to be inserted (503, 520, 524) into each set. The inserted digital sample is either equal to one of the digital samples or the average between two of the digital samples of each set. The calculation of the slopes results in a logical "0" for a constant slope and a logical "1" for a negative or a positive slope. An Exclusive OR gate is utilized to make the determination of whether to use a value equal to one of the digital samples of the set or the average of the value of two of the digital samples. A slope is considered constant if the difference between the pair of digital samples if less than a value calculated from range information of the set of samples.</p> |
