Process.
In the NTSC compensated mode, Fig. 2–6 c), the color
signal is averaged for two adjacent lines. Thus,
cross-color distortion and chroma noise is reduced. In
the NTSC 1-H comb filter mode, Fig. 2–6 d), the delay
line is in the composite signal path, thus allowing
reduction of cross-color components, as well as
cross-luminance. The loss of vertical resolution in the
luminance channel is compensated by adding the ver-
tical detail signal with removed color information. If the
4H adaptive comb filter is used, the 1-H NTSC comb
filter has to be deselected.
