Testing Video Signal To Noise Ratio Using A Modified Staircase Waveform (1977)

By Robert c. Tenten, Home Box Office

Video noise measurements usually require specialized test equipment to obtain accurate results. A method is presented which uses a modified staircase test signal generator at the transmit end and requires only an oscilloscope and low pass and weighting filters at the measurement location. The measurement is direct reading in dB, requires no calibration of equipment, and is fast and simple.
