Abstract
Color-television transmission (or data storage) system having time-division multiplex encoding. A data source is coupled, via an encoding circuit for time-division multiplex coding and signal compression, to a transmission (or storage) channel to which a data receiver comprising a decoding circuit is connectable. Luminance information associated therewith is transmitted non-compressed in a number of p different line periods. The system is compatible with an existing color television standard because the chrominance information, supplied during the q line periods, is also added to the luminance information during the p line periods in accordance with the standard.
