5 Video signal processing
5.1 General
The general way of encoding light captured from a scene (with a camera) to a video signal, which
serves as input for a display unit, can be described by the following steps:
• Step 1: Light from the scene is captured and transferred to linear RGB. This conversion occurs
with a given color gamut and white point.
• Step 2: The linear RGB signal is transferred to a perceptual uniform R’G’B’ video signal. This is
called the gamma correction.
• Step 3: The color channels can be encoded. The encoding transforms the R’G’B’ video signal to
an Y’C

video signal to optimize stream capacity. Often a 4:2:2 chroma subsampling is per-
formed. This conversion is not always performed and unencoded R’G’B’ 4:4:4 can be transmitted
as e.g. Dual link HDSDI or 3Gb/s SDI.
Each step is defined by a standard (e.g. Rec.709) The different standards used in the different
steps are listed in the table below:
