Abstract

The invention comprises an optimal causal, monic (first coefficient of filter is 1) NTSC rejection filter for use at an ATV receiver which is designed to optimally process the interference caused by an NTSC co-channel signal while keeping the noise enhancement to a desirably low value. In other words, the design method gives the filter with the BEST NTSC rejection capability for a given noise enhancement.
