Abstract

A color television signal processing circuit receives an input signal of a composite color television signal in the form of superimposition of a chrominance carrier signal on a luminance signal, separates the chrominance carrier signal and the luminance signal, and doubles the number of scanning lines of the chrominance signal or the luminance signal as compared to the number of scanning lines of the composite color television signal. A separation circuit separates the chrominance carrier signal and the luminance signal on the basis of a difference signal of the composite color television signal between adjacent frames or adjacent fields. A scanning line interpolation circuit doubles the number of scanning lines of at least the luminance signal delivered out of the separation circuit on the basis of an interpolation scanning signal derived from a signal indicative of scanning lines for the adjacent preceding field.
