Video signal transmission device
In a video signal transmission device, a camera control device includes: a compression unit for compressing a return video signal; a compression/expansion unit for compressing/expanding a prompter video signal; a frame synthesis unit for synthesizing the video signals; an encoding unit for encoding the synthesized video signal; and a modulation unit for modulating the encoded video signal and transmitting the modulated video signal to the camera adaptor. A camera adaptor includes: a demodulation unit for demodulating the video signal from the camera control device; a decoder unit for decoding the demodulated video signal; an expansion unit for separating one video signal from the decoded video signal, expanding the video signal, and restoring the video signal to the return video signal; and an expansion/compression unit for separating one video signal from the decoded video signal, compressing/expanding the video signal, and restoring the video signal to the prompter video signal.
1. A video signal transmission device for transmitting a video signal using a camera control device and a camera adaptor, wherein the camera control device includes:
a compression unit configured to compress a return video signal at a predetermined compression rate;
a horizontal compression/vertical expansion unit configured to compress or expand a prompter video signal at a predetermined compression or expansion rate;
a frame synthesis unit configured to synthesize the video signals outputted from the compression unit and the horizontal compression/vertical expansion unit into one frame of video signal;
an HD encoding unit configured to encode said one frame of video signal outputted from the frame synthesis unit; and
a digital modulation unit configured to modulate the video signal outputted from the HD encoding unit and transmit the modulated video signal to the camera adaptor, and
wherein the camera adaptor includes:
a digital demodulation unit configured to demodulate the video signal transmitted from the camera control device;
an HD decoder unit configured to decode the video signal outputted from the digital demodulation unit;
a horizontal expansion unit configured to separate one video signal from the video signal outputted from the HD decoder unit, expand the video signal at a predetermined expansion rate, and restore the video signal to the return video signal; and
a horizontal expansion/vertical compression unit configured to separate one video signal from the video signal outputted from the HD decoder unit, compress or expand the video signal at a predetermined compression or expansion rate, and restore the video signal to the prompter video signal.
