VERFAHREN ZUR VERSCHLUESSELUNG UND ENTSCHLUESSELUNG VON VIDEOSIGNALEN

摘要

A method and means for coding and decoding video signals by repetitive video signal polarity reversal includes the steps of comparing the brightness level of a predetermined time period of the video signal with the brightness level of the video signal over the previous predetermined time period. The polarity of the video signal is inverted or reversed if the difference in brightness level between successive predetermined time periods exceeds a given value.
