The working principle and process of the touch screen response method based on the user input pressure according to the embodiment of the present invention are described in detail below. First, a TDR scanning touch screen to which the touch screen response method of the embodiment of the present invention is applied is described.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a touch screen of a TDR scanning type suitable for implementing a touch screen response method based on user input pressure according to an embodiment of the present invention. The TDR scanning touch screen comprises a touch area 1 and a plurality of parallel mutually independent conducting wires 2 distributed in the touch area 1. Each of the conductive wires 2 is a transparent conductive wire 2, and the distance between each of the conductive wires 2 and the adjacent conductive wire is equal.
It can be understood that, the distance between two adjacent parallel wires 2 is set according to actual requirements, and the smaller the distance between two adjacent parallel wires 2 is, the larger the calculation amount is, the higher the calculation accuracy is, and the more accurate the touch control is. In a coordinate system constructed on the touch area 1, each conductive wire 2 is arranged to correspond to a coordinate position in a first direction (for example, Y coordinate direction) of the touch area 1, and each conductive wire 2 extends in parallel along a second direction (for example, X coordinate direction) of the touch area 1, so that a corresponding touch position can be obtained by calculating an X coordinate of a position where an impedance change occurs on each conductive wire.
Specifically, referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of a touch screen in the preferred embodiment, and the TDR scanning touch screen in the present embodiment includes a substrate 10, a plurality of parallel and independent conductive lines 2 disposed on the substrate 10, and an insulating layer 3 covering the conductive lines 2, wherein the plurality of parallel and independent conductive lines 2 are distributed on the entire touch area 1, the substrate 10 may be a glass substrate, the conductive lines 2 may be made of a transparent and conductive material, such as Indium Tin Oxide (ITO), for short, and the insulating layer 3 may be a silicon dioxide film or a PET film, the TDR scanning touch screen in the present embodiment is formed by plating a plurality of parallel and independent conductive lines 2 on a transparent thin film (substrate), covering the surface of the conductive lines 2 with a silicon dioxide film or a PET film, and then placing the obtained TDR scanning touch screen on a display screen (e.g., L CD, L ED, or O L ED, etc.), so as to adapt to different display screens, and thus being used for various touch operations.
It can be understood that the TDR scanning touch screen of the present embodiment may also not include the substrate 10, but is formed by directly plating a plurality of parallel and mutually independent wires 2 on the display screen in a film plating manner and covering the surface of the wires 2 with the insulating layer 3, so as to further reduce the thickness of the touch screen and meet the requirement of the ultra-thin touch screen.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a circuit connection block diagram of the touch screen in the present embodiment. In this embodiment, the TDR scanning touch screen further includes a signal emitter 4, a reflected signal detector 5, and a scanning driving circuit 6. Referring to fig. 2, the input end 21 of each wire 2 is connected to the signal emitter 4 and the reflected signal detector 5, respectively, the signal emitter 4 is responsible for emitting the step signal 101 to the input end 21 of the wire 2, and the reflected signal detector 5 is responsible for receiving the reflected signal 102 from the input end 21 of the wire 2.
The scanning driving circuit 6 is connected with the signal emitter 4, and the scanning driving circuit 6 drives the signal emitter 4 to switch the conducting wire 2 to emit the step signal 101 in sequence.
The output end 22 of each wire 2 is connected with one end of the load 7, and the other end of the load 7 is grounded. In addition, in the specific implementation, based on the structural principle of the TDR scanning touch screen provided by the present invention, the output end of each conducting wire 2 may be suspended without a load 7, and the above improvement is also within the protection scope of the present invention. According to the TDR principle, in the TDR scanning touch screen of the present embodiment, the output terminal 22 of each wire 2 has no signal emission when terminated (connected to the load 7) with its characteristic impedance, and has a positive signal emission with an amplitude approximately equal to the generated pulse when the output terminal 22 is not terminated (floating). The load 7 connected to the output terminal 22 of each of the wires 2 of the present embodiment has a resistance substantially equal to the characteristic impedance of each of the wires 2.
It is understood that, in the present embodiment, the input end 21 of each conducting wire 2 can be individually connected with (unique) one signal emitter 4 and one reflected signal detector 5, and each signal emitter 4 is connected with the scan driving circuit 6, and each signal emitter 4 is sequentially driven and controlled by the scan driving circuit 6 to emit the step signal 101 to the corresponding connected conducting wire 2, and each reflected signal detector 5 receives the reflected signal 102 of the corresponding connected conducting wire.
In addition, in order to reduce the equipment cost, the input end 21 of each wire 2 of the present embodiment may also be commonly connected (share) with one signal emitter 4 and one reflected signal detector 5, the scanning driving circuit 6 is used to drive and control this signal emitter 4 to sequentially switch to emit the step signal 101 to the wire 2, and the reflected signal detector 5 sequentially receives the reflected signal 102 of the corresponding wire.

Taking a T-type network as an example, the relation between the characteristic impedance Z and the distributed resistance R, the distributed inductance L, the distributed conductance G and the distributed capacitance C is expressed by the following two formulas:
equation 1:

where U is the voltage applied across the wire and I is the current through the wire, the characteristic impedance can be derived from the two equations
Figure GDA0002382961020000113
For a lossless conductor: characteristic impedance
Figure GDA0002382961020000114
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a schematic view of a touch object contacting a touch screen. When a touch object touches, the touch object contacts with the surface of the insulating layer 3, the touch object is used as a conductor, a capacitance is formed between the conductor and the insulating layer 3, the distributed capacitance C of the conducting wire 2 is changed, and then the conducting wire 2 generates impedance change at the touch point 8. The impedance change causes a portion of the signal, referred to herein as the reflected signal 102, to be reflected back to the input end of the wire.
Here, the impedance of the conductor 2 with no load at the output terminal 22 will be described as an example: as shown in fig. 7, 8 and 9, fig. 7, 8 and 9 are impedance-timing graphs in three cases of no touch point, touch point 8A and touch point 8B of any one of the wires 2, respectively. In fig. 7, a curve 111 is an impedance curve of the input terminal 21, a curve 112 is an impedance curve of the conductive line 2, and a curve 113 is an impedance curve of the output terminal 22 in the air. For the contact point 8A and the contact point 8B at different positions of the same wire 2, a curve 114 in fig. 8 is a curve of the change in the induced impedance by the touch point 8A, and a curve 115 in fig. 9 is a curve of the change in the induced impedance by the touch point 8B. The touch position on the same conductor 2 differs, and the time point on the impedance characteristic curve at which the impedance change is caused differs.
In the specific implementation, the input ends 21 of the plurality of parallel wires 2 sequentially complete the input of the step signal 101 by the signal emitter 4 and the reception of the reflected signal 102 by the reflected signal detector 5, and the switching of the wires 2 is completed by the scan driving circuit 6.
Next, with reference to fig. 2 and fig. 10, how to implement a touch screen response method based on user input pressure and an implementation principle and an operation process of touch location by using the TDR scanning touch screen of the present embodiment are described in detail. Referring to fig. 2, a first direction and a second direction of the TDR scanning touch screen employed in the present embodiment are perpendicular to each other; wherein, the first direction is set as Y-axis direction, and the second direction is set as X-axis direction.
First, the position of each wire 2 in the Y axis direction is preset, each wire 2 is preset in the order from left to right as Y, Y +1, Y +2 … … Y + n, and each wire 2 extends in parallel in the X axis direction.
Then, the signal emitter 4 is driven by the scanning driving circuit 6 to sequentially emit step signals 101 to the input end 21 of each wire 2 line by line along the Y-axis direction according to a preset period. While the reflected signal 102 at the input end 21 of each wire 2 is correspondingly received in turn by the reflected signal detector 5.
Referring to fig. 10, fig. 10 is a graph of the waveform of the injection signal at the input terminal 21 of the conductor 2, the injection signal including the transmission signal 101 and the reflection signal 102, and the graph shows the relationship of voltage amplitude versus time sequence. As can be seen from fig. 10, the voltage amplitude of the reflected signal is related to the load impedance of the conductor 2.
Specifically, the reflected signal detector 5 determines whether the received reflected signal 102 is the reflected signal 102 generated by the impedance change caused by the normal touch of the touching object by the following steps:
