1. A television bandwidth correcting system for use in a television receiver or television tuner, comprising:
- a bandwidth adjusting circuit having a passband determined in accordance with a state of a signal applied to a bandwidth controlling input thereof, said bandwidth adjusting circuit receiving an input from a front end and having an output applied to an intermediate frequency amplifier of a television receiver;
video and audio band filters for filtering out video and audio components, respectively, from said output of said bandwidth adjusting circuit;
first and second level detecting means having inputs coupled to outputs of said video and audio band filters, respectively, for producing first and second signals representative of levels of video and audio components contained in a signal at said output of said bandwidth adjusting circuit; and
a comparator for comparing said first and second signals, an output of said comparator being applied to said bandwidth controlling input of said bandwidth adjusting circuit.

Abstract
A television bandwidth correcting system for use with a television receiver or television tuner in which the quality of the displayed picture, defined by the bandwidth of the video signal, is accurately maintained for all input signal levels. Video and audio components are extracted from the intermediate frequency signal produced at the output of a bandwidth adjusting circuit. The levels of the extracted video and audio components are compared, and the result fed back to a bandwidth controlling input of the bandwidth adjusting circuit.
