Abstract

A ghost signal eliminating system which eliminates a ghost by delaying a video signal through a variable delay line by the delay time of the ghost from the true image and subtracting the delayed video signal from the original video signal. The variable delay line comprises a fine adjusting circuit for fine-adjusting the delay time and a coarse adjusting circuit for coarse-adjusting the delay time, the coarse adjusting circuit being controlled by a detection voltage for a control voltage level and the fine adjusting circuit being controlled by a voltage which is the difference between the control voltage and the detection voltage.
