Systems and methods are disclosed herein for a motion detection system for video signal processing that includes a luminance motion detector, a chroma motion detector, and a smoothness detector. These systems and methods may also include a phase motion detector, a baseband YC separation circuitry for video signal processing, a chip for video signal processing, and a video signal processing system used in an electronic article.

Phase motion detector for baseband YC separation

A system, apparatus and method are disclosed for separating a current frame of a composite video signal into a luminance signal and a chroma signal. A relative chroma correlation value is generated using a plurality of lines of the current frame. A weighted sum of inter-line pixel differences of the current frame is generated using the relative chroma correlation value. A frame difference signal is generated by subtracting a previous frame of the composite video signal from the current frame. A detected motion signal is generated that corresponds to motion detected in the current frame. The weighted sum of inter-line pixel differences, the frame difference signal, and the detected motion signal are combined to generate the chroma signal. The chroma signal is subtracted from the current frame to generate the luminance signal.

System and method for phase motion detection for YC separation

A method of processing video frame data includes the steps of: receiving a video frame; partially decoding the video frame; fully decoding the video frame to produce macroblocks; determining video data parameters from the partially decoded video frame or both the partially and fully decoded video frame; and encoding the macroblocks based on the determined video data parameters to provide a compressed video frame for subsequent display.
