Abstract

In a line number halving circuit for a sampled interlaced television signal in one field the signal samples of a line (0, 4, 8) cancelled during halving are placed between the signal samples of an underlying or overlying maintained line (2, 6, 10) while in the other field alternately a signal sample of the overlying line (1, 5, 9) and of the underlying cancelled line (5, 9, 13) is placed between the successive signal samples of a maintained line (3, 7, 11) in order to prevent position errors in a picture displayed with the television signal halved in line number.
