Variable Magnification - A Means of Increasing the Resolution of Television Transmitted Data

Abstract

Some of the problems arising in the military application of television are discussed, as are the resolution limitations of currently available techniques and equipment. It is shown that improved resolution is possible, justified, and desirable. Three methods are proposed for partially solving these problems; the capabilities and limitations of each are pointed out and experimental evidence given. It is concluded that, no matter what the resolution of the initial television link, several-fold improvement can be had on a lesser portion of the object by the techniques described.
