Abstract
A television signal scanning line converting apparatus, where an intra-frame average signal and inter-frame average signal are obtained by processing a progressive scanning signal in a unit of two frames with a delaying circuit and adders. A lowpass filter limits the horizontal and vertical bands of an intra-frame difference signal to reduce the field amount. If the input progressive scanning signal is a moving picture, the low vertical range of the intra-frame difference signal will be multiplexed to the high vertical range part of the intra-frame average signal and the high vertical range of the intra-frame difference signal will be transmitted separately so that the resolution of the moving picture will improve and no deterioration, caused by the turning distortion, will be produced.
