Patent ID: 8139154

Claim:
A method for processing a signal sequence having a first output signal value and a second output signal value said method comprising: interpolating an intermediate value; allocating the intermediate value to the first and the second output signal values; determining an interval given by the first output signal value and the second output signal value; determining a position of the intermediate value relative to a limit of the interval; mixing, via at least one mixer, the output signal values and the interpolated value by multiplying the first output signal value by a first weighting factor, the second output signal value by a second weighting factor, and the interpolated value by a third weighting factor, then adding the weighted image information values to obtain a final value, wherein the value of the third weighting factor is a function of the mathematical distance of the interpolated value from the interval limits and is selected such that the value of the interpolated value to be interpolated lies within the interval.
