Television display system with increased field frequency

DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1.
A television receiver cmprising: scan converter means including field-memory means supplied with an input video signal of an interlaced television system having a selected plurality of fields per second, memory control means for supplying writing and reading signals to said field-memory where the frequency of said reading signal is different from that of said writing signal, thereby providing an increased plurality of fields per second greater than said selected plurality of fields, an output terminal for deriving an output video signal; and a video display means supplied with said output video signals, charaterized by a synchronizing signal separating circuit for separating synchronizing signals from said input video signals and by means provided in said memory control means for changing the frequency of said reading signal at a vertical rate including phase-lock loop means receiving said separated synchronizing signals and producing therefrom a plurality of read clock pulse signals of selected different frequencies and a switching circuit receiving said plurality of read clock pulse signals for delivering said plurality of read clock pulses signals to said field-memory means during corresponding periods of respective ones of said increased plurality of fields, whereby vertical intervals of odd fields of said output video signal are made substantially same as vertical intervals of even fields of said output video signal.




Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a television receiver which displays a television picture at, for example, field frequency twice the normal field frequency.
BACKGROUND ART In the existing television system, a so-called interlaced scanning system is carried out.
That is, one picture (frame) is transmitted by two vertical scannings (fields).
This interlaced scanning system is considered in order to increase the number of scanning lines as much as possible in a limited frequency band without a flicker being perceived by a viewer
