Abstract: A Color Test Signal having luminance and chrominance components which are sine-squared pulses with long half-amplitude duration* has been proposed in the past and has given rise, lately, to considerable interest.<sup>1-8</sup> Since it can be taken as a complete color signal, having a luminance component and a chrominance subcarrier with carrier-suppressed amplitude modulation, and in view of the success of the sine-squared pulse testing techniques for monochrome television, the color test signal in question would appear quite attractive. With its recent correlation to subjective impairments<sup>8</sup> and introduction of a K-rating factor, the attractiveness of this test signal is bound to increase considerably.
