PAL Encoder and Decoder By Rajender Kumar Director(Engg.) STI(T), AIR & Doordarshan

Color reproduction in Television System • Colors are generated by additive mixing of primary colors, Red (R), Green (G), Blue (B). • The mixing is done in the color picture tube where three R-G-B electron guns will hit the respective RG-B phosphor dots on the screen, resulting in emission of red, green and blue light from the respective dots. When these colors of different intensities are emitted, human eyes would perceive a particular color

Color Generation in TV Picture Tube

Conversion of RGB signals into CCVS • TV Transmission is carried out in color composite video signals (CCVS), instead of RGB component video. • TV receiver responds only to CCVS signals. • PAL encoder convert RGB signal into CCVS signal and PAL Decoder takes CCVS as input and gives RGB as output • Therefore conversion from RGB to CCVS is required.

Total line period = 64 µsec Active period = 52 µsec Horizontal blanking = 12 ±0.3µsec Horizontal sync pulse = 4.7 ±0.2µsec Front porch = 1.5 ±0.3µsec Back porch = 5.8 ±0.3µsec

Video Bandwidth Number of pixels in a single picture of a SD television is 720  576  414720 pixels(PAL)

The number of cycles produced is given by 1/2 number of pixels:

1  414720  207360 cycles/picture 2

Since there are 25 (PAL) complete pictures per second, then the number of cycles per second, i.e. the maximum video frequency is

207360  25  5184000 Hz = 5.184 MHz

Constrains for migration from monochrome to color Transmission • Compatibility: Color transmission must respond to B/W receivers. • Reverse Compatibility: Monochrome transmission must be received by color TV. • Bandwidth:Color composite video signal must utilize the same bandwidth of 5 MHz as utilized by monochrome composite signal.

How to maintain compatibility • Three RGB signals are converted into Luminance Y, and color difference signals using simple mathematical relation • Y=0.3R+0.59G+0.11B, Luminance Signal • U=0.493(B-Y) Color Difference Signals • V=0.877(R-Y) • (B-Y) and (R-Y) are weighted to avoid over modulation

How to retain 5MHz BW • The color difference signals, U and V are accommodated in the luminance Y signal using frequency interleaving. • The frequency interleaving is achieved by modulating U and V using QAM at color subcarrier frequency which is given by f SC

Quadrature Amplitude Modulation • QAM is a type of modulation scheme where two information, U and V can be conveyed on a single carrier, means saving BW. • QAM signal or Chrominance signal C :

Advantage of PAL over NTSC Phase Alteration by Line : Changing phase of the subcarrier by 180 degree at each alternating line to minimize the phase error. The phase error causes error in color reproduction. Correction of colors is done in the Human Visual System. Color correction is not done in NTSC system
