Facts and fiction: Some aspects regarding the design of digital television cameras using CCD image sensors

Abstract

The architecture of CCD sensors and their relationship to digital processing of images requires a re-examination of traditional analog signal processing conventions. Digital processing now requires different methods of analysis and processing in areas such as frequency response, noise, and scanning techniques. The purpose of this paper is to encourage researchers and engineers to forget some of the traditional analog practices and have them step up to the future with an open mind. 0 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
