3. COMPOSITE VIDEO SIGNAL Prepared by Sam Kollannore U. Lecturer, Department of Electronics M.E.S.College, Marampally, Aluva-7 COMPOSITE VIDEO SIGNAL  Consist of : Camera signal - corresponding to the desired picture information Blanking pulses – to make the retrace invisible Synchronizing pulses – to synchronize the transmitter and receiver scanning -horizontal sync pulse -vertical sync pulse -their amplitudes are kept same -but their duration are different -needed consecutively and not simultaneously with the picture signal – so sent on a time division basis Composite Video Signal …contd Composite video signal …contd Video signal varies between certain limits Peak white level: 10 to 12.5% Black level : 72% Blanking level : Sync pulses added - 75% level Pedestal : difference between black level and blanking level – tend to merge Pedestal height : distance between the pedestal level and the dc level – indicates the average brightness Picture information : 10% - 75% Darker the picture – higher will be the voltage within those limits DC component of the video signal Average value or dc component corresponding to the average brightness of the scene Average brightness can change only from frame to frame and not from line to line Low pedestal height – scene darker Larger pedestal height – higher average brightness blanking pulses . . . Make the retrace lines invisible by raising the signal amplitude slightly above the black level (75%) Repetition rate of horizontal blanking pulse = scanning freq. = 15625Hz Freq of vertical blanking pulse = field scanning freq. = 50 Hz Sync Pulse and Video Signal Amplitude Ratio P/S RATIO = 10/4 Justification: If the picture signal amplitude is ↑ at the expense of sync pulses – when S/N ratio at the receiver falls, sync pulse amplitude becomes insufficient to keep the picture locked If the sync pulse amplitude is ↑ at the expe
