BRUSREDUKTIONSANORDNING

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Fixed pattern odd/even noise in the video signal output from a self-scanned photosensor array is substantially eliminated by integrating the video signal at the cell scan rate, and converting the resultant to a pulse having a width proportional to the charge current generated by a photosensor cell. Even and odd pulses corresponding to alternate sensor cell video signals are produced, and the pulse widths are compared to form a correction signal. A current sink responsive to the correction signal adjusts the output of the integrator during even cell scans to eliminate fixed pattern odd/even noise in the output video signal. In a specific embodiment, the fixed pattern odd/even noise correction system coacts with an AGC control system and a black reference control system to substantially eliminate fixed pattern odd/even noise and cell clock noise in the output video signal, and to provide an effective system immunity to variations in the coupling capacitance of the photosensor array.
