Abstract

Motion between adjacent fields of an interlaced video signal is analyzed by vertically interpolating the current field to produce a line signal which corresponds in vertical position with lines from the succeeding and preceding fields; and subtracting the signals to provide a field difference. The effect of vertical detail is reduced by comparing two field differences or by subtracting a local or global detail signal from the field difference.
