3 Digital Image Processing
3.1 Outline
Digital image processing is performed by the reader controller PCB, which has the fol-
lowing major functions:
[1] Shading correction
[2] Auto density adjustment (AE)

3.2 Shading Correction
3.2.1 Outline
The output of the CCD will not necessarily be uniform because of the following factors
even if the density of the original in question is perfectly uniform:
1) The level of sensitivity of a CCD pixel differs from that of another.
2) The level of penetration of light differs between the center and the periphery of a lens.
3) The intensity of the scanning lamp differs between the middle and the ends of the
lamp.
4) The scanning lamp is subject to deterioration.
Shading correction is executed to correct discrepancies in the output of the CCD, and it
may be of either of the following two: shading adjustment used to determine a target level in
service mode and shading correction executed when scanning each original.
To make up for the fluctuations in the intensity of light occurring at short intervals, edge
area gain correction is also executed.
