Method and apparatus requiring fewer number of look-up tables for converting luminance-chrominance color space signals to RGB color space signals

摘要

In a method and apparatus for converting digitized luminance- chrominance color space signals to digitized RGB color space signals, a first combining unit generates a plurality of predetermined linear combinations of the chrominance color space signals received by a multiplexed multiplication unit which includes no more than two look-up tables that contain digitized transformation values for performing matrix multiplications of the linear combinations of the chrominance color space signals. A second combining unit linearly combines the digitized transformation values outputted by the multiplexed multiplication unit and a predetermined binary combination of the luminance color space signal in a first predetermined manner to generate three RGB color combination signals. A third combining unit linearly combines the RGB color combination signals in a second predetermined manner to obtain the RGB color space signals.
