For eg. If sampling rate for chrominance component is (sampling rate for luminance), the temporal &
vertical sampling intervals are the same for chrominance & luminance component; but the horizontal
interval for chrominance is twice that of luminance. This is referred to as the BT-601 4:2:2 format.
Similarly BT-601 4:1:1 format is obtained by down sampling the chrominance component by a factor
of 4 along the raster scan. These are shown in figure below.
