Abstract
An adaptive signal separation system and method for quadrature amplitude modulated signals that is particularly well-suited for YC separation of a composite television signal. An adaptive approach for separating overlapping signals wherein the adaptive approach selects between notch or equivalent filtering and a comb filtering system, wherein the chrominance is first demodulated to the IQ domain prior to comb filtering. The demodulated comb filtered IQ data streams are then re-modulated to reconstruct the luminance portion of the signal.
