Abstract
After outlining the background of the standards conversion problem in European TV, the design and performance of the British Broadcasting Corp. standards converter are described. This converter comprises a high-quality display of the incoming (625- or 819-line) picture which is presented to a TV camera using a 4-in. image-orthicon pickup tube (P812) on the British standard of 405 lines.
