Abstract

Keeping the TV signal in optical domain from the video camera to the TV receiver has a series of advantages over the present methods used in colour TV. In this paper, the authors present a method for the transformation of the light intensity of a colour TV signal into an optical digital information, from theoretical point of view. Thus, the light intensity value of a monochromic optical signal is codified binary. The method has a general character and it might be applied not only with means of integrated optics but also with means of the classical optics.
