Abstract
An equalizer for a digital video disk player which is capable of obtaining a 5-tap transversal filter effect by providing a 3-tap transversal filter, reducing the number of elements, and obtaining a reliable 5-tap frequency characteristic. The equalizer includes first through third buffers for preventing a jittering problem of an RF signal due to a delay time, a 2T delay unit for 2T-delaying an output signal from the first buffer, a 4T delay unit for 4T-delaying an output signal from the third buffer, a summing unit for summing output signals from the first and third buffers with an output signal from the second buffer, and a low pass filter for allowing the summed output signals from the summing unit to have an equalizer characteristic suggested in the DVDP specification.
Claims4
An equalizer for a digital video disk player (DVDP) having a predetermined specification, comprising:
- means for receiving an RF signal input;
- first, second, and third buffer means connected to said input means for preventing any jittering problem associated with said RF signal due to a delay time for said RF signal;
- a 2T delay means connected to an output of said first buffer means for 2T-delaying an output signal from the first buffer means output for providing a 2T delayed output signal;
- a 4T delay means connected to an output of said third buffer means for 4T-delaying an output signal from the third buffer means output for providing a 4T delayed output signal;
- a summing means connected to said 2T and 4T delayed output signals and to an output of said second buffer means for summing said output signals for providing a summed output signal;
- and
- a low pass filter means connected to said summed output signal for allowing the summed output signals from the summing means to have an equalizer characteristic corresponding to said predetermined specification.
