If the first resolution is 2 times of the second resolution, the scanning line or the scanning line of the signal to be displayed is decomposed into two times of the original scanning line or scanning line; if the first resolution is n times of the second resolution and n is greater than 2, the scanning lines and the scanning columns of the signals to be displayed are respectively decomposed into the original 2/n times, so that the display effect of the signals is prevented from being influenced, and meanwhile, the hardware cost is not increased. Therefore, the embodiment of the application can display the high refresh rate signal on the basis of the existing hardware.

To further illustrate the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application, the following detailed description is made with reference to the accompanying drawings and the detailed description. Although the embodiments of the present application provide the method operation steps as shown in the following embodiments or figures, more or less operation steps may be included in the method based on the conventional or non-inventive labor. In steps where no necessary causal relationship exists logically, the order of execution of the steps is not limited to that provided by the embodiments of the present application.
Before processing the signal to be displayed, the display driving chip counts the synchronous signals of the scanning line and/or the scanning column of the signal to be displayed, and the counting result is used for reconstructing a scanning synchronous time sequence. And the display driving chip scans the signals to be displayed according to the reconstructed synchronous time sequence, and reserves the scanning lines or scanning columns corresponding to the signals when the signals reach the rising edge.
As shown in fig. 3, a flow chart for displaying output signals according to the present application includes the following steps:
in step 301, a signal to be displayed is received, wherein the resolution of the signal to be displayed is a first resolution, and the refresh rate is specified.
In step 302, a second resolution of the signal to be displayed is determined based on a principle that a bandwidth between the display driver chip and the display screen is not changed, where the second resolution is smaller than the first resolution.
In step 303, the resolution of the signal to be displayed is reduced from the first resolution to the second resolution to obtain an output signal specifying the refresh rate.
In step 304, the output signal is output to the display screen for display.
In this application, the bandwidth of the signal to be displayed is n times the bandwidth that can be displayed by the display screen, so the second resolution needs to be reduced to 1/n of the first resolution. The method and the device reduce the number of lines of the scanning lines and/or the scanning columns of the signals to be displayed from the first resolution to the second resolution so as to achieve the purpose of improving the refresh rate. In the present application, different methods of reducing resolution are performed according to different multiplier relationships, as shown in fig. 4 and 5.
In fig. 4, when n is equal to 2, the scan line or scan column of the output signal is reduced by half, and the specific implementation process includes.
In step 401, a scan line or a scan column is selected as a target direction, and 1/2 for reducing the number of lines in the target direction to the original number of lines is determined based on the second resolution for the target direction.
In step 402, detecting an original synchronization signal in a target direction of a signal to be displayed, and reconstructing every 2 rising edges in the synchronization signal into 1 rising edge to obtain a new synchronization signal; wherein, the starting time of the first rising edge in the new synchronous signal and the original synchronous signal is the same.
In step 403, the signal to be displayed is scanned with the new synchronization signal for the target direction.
In step 404, the signal to be displayed is scanned with the original synchronization signal in the vertical direction of the target direction, aiming at the vertical direction of the target direction.
In the present application, when n is 2, it is ensured that all signal data of the signal to be displayed will be displayed by generating two output signals from the odd-numbered lines and the even-numbered lines of the signal to be displayed. And when n is equal to 2, the refreshing rate is doubled while the visual display effect of the signal can be ensured only by reducing the scanning rows or the scanning columns and by means of alternate display.
In another embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, when n is greater than 2 and is an exponential number of 2, that is, n is 2m, m is a positive integer and m is greater than 1, the display scan line and the display scan column of the output signal can be respectively reconstructed to be 2/n of the original scan line number, and the specific implementation process includes:
in step 501, the scan lines and the scan columns are selected as a target direction, and for the target direction, the number of lines in the scan lines and the scan columns is determined to be reduced to 2/n of the original number of lines based on the second resolution.
In step 5021, reconstructing every n/2 rising edges in the original synchronization signal of the scanning line into 1 rising edge to obtain a new synchronization signal of the scanning line; wherein, the starting time of the first rising edge in the new synchronous signal and the original synchronous signal is the same.
In step 5022, reconstructing every n/2 rising edges in the original synchronizing signals of the scanning columns into 1 rising edge to obtain new synchronizing signals of the scanning columns; wherein, the starting time of the first rising edge in the new synchronous signal and the original synchronous signal is the same.
In step 5031, the signal to be displayed is scanned with the new synchronization signal of the scan line.
In step 5032, the signal to be displayed is scanned with the new synchronization signal of the scan column.
In the present application, when n is greater than 2 and is an index of 2, if only the scan line or the scan column is reduced, the data of the signal to be displayed is seriously lost, which affects the user experience. According to the method and the device, the scanning rows and the scanning columns are reduced to be 2/n of the original value at the same time, and the average value of each scanning row or scanning column of the signal to be displayed is weighted and solved according to the value of n, so that the data of each scanning row or scanning column are ensured to be used for constructing the output signal. The method can meet the requirement of improving the refresh rate and simultaneously ensure that signals do not cause excessive signal data loss because only the scanning rows or the scanning columns are reduced.
Taking the example of reducing the number of scanning lines to reduce the resolution to the second resolution, as shown in fig. 6, when odd-numbered lines and even-numbered lines of data are alternately displayed, when the first resolution is 2 times of the second resolution, the odd-numbered lines of signals to be displayed in (1) in fig. 6 are extracted to form data of the odd-numbered lines shown in (2) in fig. 6 for output display, and when even-numbered lines of data are displayed, the even-numbered lines of signals in (1) in fig. 6 are extracted to form output signals shown in (3) in fig. 6 for display.
Besides alternately showing the data of odd lines and even lines, the embodiment of the present application may also adopt a way of weighting and averaging the data of multiple lines to reconstruct an output signal. Fig. 7 shows an embodiment of weighted averaging for two scan lines and three scan lines, respectively.
Fig. 7 (2) shows one scanning line of the output signal generated by averaging two adjacent lines of the signal to be displayed, and fig. 7 (3) shows one scanning line of the output signal generated by weighted averaging three scanning lines of the signal to be displayed.
It should be noted that, which lines are averaged and several lines of signals are averaged in implementation may be determined according to the relationship between the first resolution and the second resolution. In short, it is sufficient that the output signal of the second resolution of the required number of lines can be calculated using all the data of the signal to be displayed. For example, taking the example of doubling the refresh rate, two adjacent rows are used to calculate a mean value for output, and each row is not used repeatedly for calculation. For example, the average values are calculated on the 1 st line and the 2 nd line, and then the average values are calculated on the 3 rd line and the 4 th line, and each line participates in the calculation of the average value.
In another possible embodiment, when the first resolution is 4 times the second resolution, the scan rows and the scan columns of the signals to be displayed are reduced to 1/2, respectively.
Similarly, for example, when the first resolution is 2 times the second resolution, the odd-numbered columns or even-numbered columns of the signals to be displayed are generated into the scan columns of the output signals, respectively. When the first resolution is n times of the second resolution, the scanning columns and the scanning columns of the signals to be displayed are respectively reduced to 2/n times of the original scanning columns.
In the method, no matter how much the refresh rate is increased, the output signal can be output to the display screen for display in a manner of alternately displaying the odd line frame and the even line frame of the signal to be displayed by referring to the example shown in fig. 5 during scanning. When the display is performed alternately, the data displayed in the two frames can cover the rows and the columns of the original signals, and the display effect can be improved compared with the case that the data in the odd rows or the even rows are displayed independently.
It should be noted that after the resolution is reduced, the scan lines and/or scan columns are smaller than the signal to be displayed, and therefore need to be expanded when displaying. In the embodiment of the application, after the display screen obtains the output signals, the output signals are expanded to the original first resolution to be output only based on the number of rows and columns of the output signals. For example, when the refresh rate is increased by decreasing the number of scanning lines, each line of the output signal is copied and expanded to the original number of lines for display. Similarly, when the refresh rate is increased by reducing the number of the scanning columns, each column of the output signals can be copied and expanded to the original number of the columns for display.
When the refresh rate is increased by reducing the scanning rows and the scanning columns, the scanning rows and the scanning columns can be expanded to restore the original number of rows and columns with the first resolution, and then the display is carried out.
To facilitate understanding of the scheme in the embodiment of the present application, the signal to be displayed of 3840 × 1080 × 120Hz is taken as an example, the bandwidth of the video signal is 8, the first resolution is 3840 × 1080, and the refresh rate is 120 Hz. In order to avoid changing the bandwidth between the driving display chip and the display screen and reduce the refresh rate of the video signal, the maximum bandwidth that can be displayed by the display screen is 2, the scanning line and the scanning column of the signal to be displayed are respectively reduced to 1/2 by the display driving chip, namely the second resolution is 1920 x 540, and then the output signal of the second resolution is output to the display screen.
In the process of respectively reducing the scanning row and the scanning column of the signals to be displayed to 1/2, the following three processing methods are available for the scanning column 3840:
1) when the odd columns and the even columns are alternately displayed, respectively extracting the odd columns and the even columns of 3840 scanning columns, and generating two 1920-column signals for alternately displaying;
2) the average value of every two columns in the 3840 scan column is used to generate a 1920 column signal, or the average value of every three columns in the 3840 scan column is used to generate a column signal, and the 3840 columns are reduced to 1920 columns.
In the same manner, the scan line of 1080 is reduced to 540, which will not be described again.
According to method 1) two output signals of 1920 x 540 are generated respectively, one of which is generated by the odd scan lines and the odd scan columns of the signals to be displayed and the other by the even scan lines and the even scan columns of the signals to be displayed. According to method 2) two output signals of 1920 x 540 are also generated. In practice, the two output signals generated by method 1) or method 2) are selected for display.
Since the signal data loss caused by scanning rows and scanning columns is reduced, odd-numbered row-column signals and even-numbered row-column signals can be alternatively displayed.
The processing of the scan columns and the scan lines is not limited to the above, and may be performed every four columns, every five columns, and the like in the scan columns, and is not limited herein.
