subcarrier

The 4.43 MHz (PAL) or 3.59 MHz (NTSC) signal that is used as a carrier for the color information. This subcarrier is modulated in amplitude by the color saturation and in phase by the color hue. A sample of the unmodulated subcarrier is placed before the start of each horizontal line, and is called the Color Burst.
