Abstract

The present invention pertains to a method and device for precision tuning and a method and device for matching a vestigial sideband signal in a television, which prevent a direct current boost-up when a vestigial sideband signal is shifted to a base band in a carrier recovery device of a short loop using a digital frequency and phase locked loop. A precision tuning method in a television includes the steps of receiving a plurality of vestigial sideband signals in a radio frequency band, shifting only a vestigial sideband signal of an intended channel to be tuned among the plurality of vestigial sideband signals to a base band, outputting the baseband-shifted vestigial sideband signal, generating a direct current estimated value by taking an average of the baseband-shifted vestigial sideband signal, and controlling a tuning frequency of a tuner based on the direct current estimated value.
