`
`COLOR IMAGE PICK-UP APPARATUS
`
`BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
`
`4,390,895
`
`2
`from the following detailed description of the presently
`preferred exemplary embodiments of the ‘invention
`taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings,
`in which
`'
`
`10
`
`This invention relates to color image pick-up appara-
`tus using solid-state image pick-up devices such as
`charge coupled devices (hereinafter CCD), and more
`particularly, to color video cameras using a single pla-
`nar array of solid state, light-sensitive elements.
`Recently, various image pick-up apparatus have been
`developed for a color television system using semicon-
`ductor devices such as CCD or bucket brigade devices
`(BBD). Particularly, a color imaging system employing
`a single planar CCD sensor with a color filter array has
`been proposed as a home use video camera. However, 15
`with the present technical level, it is difficult to manu-
`facture a CCD sensor having a large number of picture
`elements, and as a result,’ CCD color image systems
`have a resolution capability well below that of a stan-
`dard video display.
`One method for improving the resolution is by em-
`ploying a mosaic filter such as “Bater geometry” or
`“Interline geometry” filter array as shown in, for exam-
`ple, a paper entitled “Color Imaging System Using a
`Single CCD Area Array” by Peter L. P. Dillon et a1., 25
`IEEE Transactions On Electron Device, Vol. ED-25, No.
`2, February 1978. These mosaic filters allocate green
`filters more than red and blue filters in repeating pat-
`terns so as to pick up much green component signal,
`which component determines resolution.
`Further, it is known in color image systems to use
`such a mosaic filter that green component signals pro-
`duced from the picture elements of the CCD are de-
`layed for one horizontal scanning period and added to
`green component signals successively produced from (35
`the picture elements of the CCD.
`Such system has higher horizontal resolution. How-
`ever, in this system the adjacent two horizontal lines are
`added to each other and the number of effective scan-
`.ning lines equivalently decreases to nearly half of the 40
`actual number of scanning lines. As a result the vertical
`resolution is lowered.

`
`DESCRIPTION OF TIIE PREFERRED
`EMBODIMENTS
`
`Referring now to FIG. 1, one embodiment of the
`present invention includes a solid state image pick-up
`device 20, for example, CCD, which is a substantially
`single planar array of solid state light-sensitive element,
`and a color filter array 22 superposed in one-to-one
`registry on the light-sensitive elements of image pick-up
`device 20.
`
`Color filter array 22 is a mosaic filter made up‘ of
`individual-filter elements, e.g., green (G), red (R) and
`blue (B) filters. Such filter elements are arranged in
`repeating patterns of high-sensitive elements 200 as
`shown in FIG. 2 with green (G) filters occurring at
`every other element position in two perpendicular di-
`rections.
`'
`
`SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
`
`It is an object of this invention to provide a color 45
`image pick-up apparatus using a single planar array of *
`solid state light-sensitive elements, which array has
`excellent horizontal and vertical resolution.
`In accordance with the preferred embodiment of this
`invention, the color image pick-up apparatus includes a 50
`single planar array of solid state light-sensitive elements
`and a color mosaic filter. The color mosaic filter is made
`up of three types of elements occurring in repeating
`patterns which are such that a luminance-type element
`occurs at every other element portion along both of two 55
`orthogonal direction. The signal corresponding to lumi-
`nance is separated from the output signal produced by
`the solid state light-sensitive elements and delayed for
`one horizontal scanning period. The high frequency
`component of the delayed signal is extracted. The ex- 60
`tracted high frequency component signal
`is supple-
`mented to the signal corresponding to luminance which
`is succeedingly produced from the solid state light-sen-
`sitive elements.
`-
`
`BRIEFDESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
`Other objects and advantages of this invention will ’
`become more apparentand more readily appreciated
`
`65
`
`If an interlace scanning system is employed, one pitch
`of the color filter corresponds to two picture elements,
`i.e., one pitch corresponds with one of the light-sensi-
`. tive elements 200 ‘in a vertical direction and one pitch of
`the color filter corresponds with one picture element in
`the horizontal direction. The upper of each pair of pic-
`ture elements 200 under each filter element are driven in
`the odd field scanning, and the lower are driven in the
`even field scanning.
`Referring back to FIG. 1, solid state image pick-up
`device 20 is connected to a driver circuit 24. Driver
`circuit 24 supplies a driving signal DS to solid state
`image pick-up device 20 in response to a pulse signal Po
`generated from a pulse generator 26. Solid state image
`pick-up device 20 produces an electrical video signal in
`response to incident light. The output video signal is
`transmitted to switching circuit 30 and sample-and-hold '
`circuits 32 and 34 through an output terminal 28 of solid
`state image pick-up device 20.
`Switching circuits 30 and sample-and-hold circuits 32
`and 34 respond to pulse signals P1, P2 and P3 generated
`from pulse generator 26 and extract green (G), red (R)
`and blue (B) component signals from the output signal
`of solid state image pick-up device 20, respectively.

`(G) from switching
`The green component signal
`circuit 30 is delivered to a one horizontal scanning per-
`iod delay circuit (hereinafter 1H delay circuit) 36, for
`example, a CCD delay circuit which delays the signal
`one horizontal scanning period. The delayed signal is
`delivered to a high-pass filter 38 to pass the high fre-
`quency component signal GH of the green component
`signal. The high frequency component signal GH is
`supplied to an adder circuit 40 together with the output
`of switching circuit 30.
`Adder circuit 40 adds the high frequency component
`GH of the green component signal delayed for one
`horizontal scanning period to the green component
`signal G produced by switching circuit 30. The output
`signal of adder circuit 40 is delivered to a low-pass filter
`42 with the high frequency band, for example, 3.58
`MHz which removes a clock noise and a switching
`noise from the output signal of adder circuit 40. The
`clock noise is produced in driving solid state image
`pick-up apparatus 20 and the switching noise is pro- 20
`duced in switching circuit 30. The output signal of
`low-pass filter 42 is delivered to a color encoder 44.
`The red (R) and blue (B) component signals extracted
`by sample-and-hold circuits 32 and 34 are held for two
`picture elements scanning period, and are delivered to 25
`color coder 44 through low-pass filters 46_and 48 which
`remove the clock and switching noises from the red and
`blue component signals, respectively. Color encoder 44
`produces an NTSC color signal by composing the
`green, red and blue component signals in response to a 30
`clock pulse from clock generator 26.
`The operation of the color image pick-up apparatus
`shown in FIG. 1 will be described referring to FIGS.
`3A to 5B.
`When solid state image pick-up device 20 with color 35
`filter array 22 shown in FIG. 2 is driven by driver cir-
`cuit 24, color signals responding to the arrangement of
`the color filters are produced from solid state image
`pick-up device 20. The color signals thus produced are
`separated into each color signal, that is, green compo-
`nent signal (G), red component signal (R) and blue
`component signal (B) by switching circuits 20 and sam-
`ple-and-hold circuits 32 and 34. FIG. 3A shows the
`separated green component signal. The green compo-
`nent signal G1 according to the scanning line S,, is de-
`layed for one horizontal scanning period by 1H delay
`circuit 36 and its high frequency component Guy is
`extracted from the green component signal by high-pass
`filter 38. The high frequency component thus obtained
`is added to the green component signal G2 according to
`the scanning line S,,+1. The green component signal G2
`is delayed for one horizontal scanning period and its
`high frequency component G21; is extracted therefrom,
`and then it is added to the green component signal G3
`according to the scanning line S,,+2. Accordingly, the
`output signal waveform of adder circuit 40 is shown in
`FIG. 3B.
`The resolution of the color image pick-up apparatus
`depends on the number of picture elements, that is, the
`sampling number of signal corresponding to luminance,
`i.e. green component signal. Particularly, the horizontal
`resolution depends on the high frequency component of
`the green component signal and the vertical resolution
`depends on the low frequency component of the green
`component signal.
`Accordingly, the horizontal resolution of the color
`image pick-up apparatus according to the present inven-
`tion is improved because the green component signal is

`supplemented by 1H delayed high frequency green
`component signal.
`FIG. 4A shows the incident pattern on the solid state‘
`image pick-up device 20. This pattern is vertical stripes
`of black (B) and white (W) and high horizontal resolu-
`tion is required to reproduce such a pattern accurately.
`In accordance with the invention, the high frequency
`green component signal obtained before one horizontal
`scanning period is supplemented by the green compo-
`nent signal now obtained from the solid state image
`pick-up device 20. Accordingly, the green component
`signal increases as shown FIG. 4B and the horizontal
`resolution is improved.
`’
`Improving the vertical resolution of the color image
`pick-up apparatus depends on the low frequency com-
`ponent of the green component signal. Therefore, even
`if the green component signal is supplemented by the
`high frequency green component signal, it does no harm
`to vertical resolution.
`FIG. 5A shows the incident pattern on the solid state
`image pick-up device 20. This pattern is lateral stripes of
`black (B) and white (W) and high vertical resolution is
`required to reproduce such a pattern accurately. In
`accordance with the prior art system, the .1H delayed
`signal, that is, the black color signal is added to the
`signal now produced from solid state image pick-up
`signal, that is, the white color signal. As a result, a gray
`color signal is produced.
`In accordance with this invention, as only the high
`frequency of the 1H delayed signal is added to the signal
`now produced from solid state image pick-up apparatus,
`the vertical resolution is not affected. Accordingly, the
`white and black stripes are reproduced with high reso-
`lution. In the system of the present invention, the signals
`of the adjacent two scanning lines are not added with
`respect to the vertical direction. As a result, the vertical
`resolution is improved in comparison with the prior art.
`Thus, the color image pick-up apparatus according to
`the present invention has not only excellent horizontal
`resolution but also excellent vertical resolution.
`‘
`As an alternative to the embodiment shown in FIG.
`1, 1H delay circuit 36 may be provided between high
`pass filter 38 and adder circuit 40.
`FIG. 6 illustrates another embodiment of the present
`invention similar to that illustrated in FIG. 1 except that
`only high-pass filter 38 is connected between switching
`circuit 30 and adder circuit 40 and a 1H delay circuit 50
`the same as 1H delay circuit 36 is provided between
`solid state image pick-up device 20 and sample-and-hold
`circuits 32 and 34.
`'
`from
`In operation,
`the green component signal
`switching circuit 30 is delivered to 1H delay circuit 36
`and high-pass filter 38. The output signals of 1H delay
`circuit 36 and high-pass filter 38 are delivered to adder
`circuit 40, and added to each other. Thus, in accordance
`with this embodiment, the high frequency of the green
`component signal now produced by solid state image
`pick-up apparatus 20 is supplemented to the 1H delayed
`green component signal as shown in FIG. 7. 1H delay
`circuit 50 delays the red and blue component signals to
`cause their phases to correspond with that of the green
`component signal from 11-1 delay circuit 36. As an alter- I
`native to providing 1H delay circuit between solid state
`image pick’-up device 20 and sample-and-hold circuits
`32vand 34, 11-1 delay delay circuits may be each pro-
`vided between color coder 44 and sample-and-hold
`circuits 32 and 34.

`‘
`While the invention has been described in connection
`
`5
`FIG. 8 illustrates yet another embodiment of this
`invention. In FIG. 8, the output signal of solid state
`image pick-up device 20 is delivered to a switching
`circuit 52, switching circuit 30’ and sample-and-hold
`circuits 32 and 34 through a 1H delay circuit 54. Fur- .
`ther the output signal of solid state image pick-up de-
`vice 20 is delivered to switching circuit 52. Switching
`circuit 52 alternatively extracts the green component
`signal from the output signals of solid state image pick-
`up device 20 and 1H delay circuit 54 in response to a
`control signal P7 from pulse generator 26. The output
`signal of switching circuit 52 is delivered to low-pass
`filter 56 to remove the switching noise, etc.
`Switching circuit 30 and sample-and-hold circuits 32
`and 34 extract green, red and blue" signals from the
`output signal of 1H delay circuit 54. The output signals
`from switching circuit 30 and sample-and-hold circuits
`' 32 and 34 are each delivered to a matrix circuit 58,
`which produces a low frequency luminance signal by
`adding at a predetermined rate green, red and blue
`component signals, through low-pass filters 30, 32 and
`34. The frequency band of low-pass filter 56 is wide, for
`example, 3.2 MHZ, enough to extract the high fre-
`quency component of the output signal from switching
`‘circuit 52. The frequency bands of low-pass filter 60, 62
`and 64 are relatively narrow, for example, 500 KHz,
`according to the frequency band width of color signal.
`The output signal of low-pass filter 56 is ‘delivered to
`a subtraction circuit 66 together with the output signal
`of low-pass filter 60. Subtraction circuit 66 subtracts the
`output signal of low-pass filter 60 from the output signal
`of low-pass filter 56. As a result, subtraction circuit 66
`produces the green component signal and the 1H de-
`layed high frequency green component signal alterna-
`tively.
`.
`The output signal is delivered to an adder circuit 68
`together with the output signal of matrix circuit 58.
`Adder circuit 68 adds the high frequency green compo-
`nent signal from subtraction circuit 66 and the low
`frequency luminance signal from matrix circuit 58 to
`produce a luminance signal which improves both hori-
`zontal and vertical resolution.
`This output signal is delivered to color encoder 44
`together with the output signals of matrix circuit 58 and
`low-pass filters 62 and 64. Color encoder 44 produces
`color video signal having excellent color reproduction.
`FIG. 9 illustrates further embodiment of this inven-
`tion similar to that illustrated in FIG. 8 except that only
`the output signal of solid state image pick-up device is
`directly delivered to switching circuit 30 and sample
`hold circuit 32 and 34 without passing through 1H
`delay circuit 54 and the high frequency green compo-
`nent signal is extractedby a high-pass filter 70 con-
`nected between low-pass filter 56 and adder circuit 68.
`In accordance with this embodiment, 1H delay cir-
`cuit 54 does not have to deliver the low frequency
`component of the video signal from solid state image
`pick-up apparatus and a glass delay line may be em-
`ployed as the 1H delay circuit. As a result, the color
`image pick-up apparatus is constructed simply.
`As an alternative the series circuit of low-pass filter
`56 and high-pass filter 70 in FIG. 9, a band pass filter
`may be provided.
`,
`The color filter array is not limited to the embodi-
`ment shown in FIG. 2, but may employ “Bayer geome-
`try” filter arrays and the like. Further, green filters of
`the color filter array may be replaced by filters corre-
`
`,
`
`.
`

`cal and preferred embodiments, it is to be understood
`that the invention is not to be limited to the disclosed
`embodiments but on the contrary, is intended to cover
