Description
One, technical field
The invention relates to the Flame Image Process of plasma apparatus, more specifically say, is a kind of plasma display system and image processing method thereof that can improve the speed and the quality of Flame Image Process.
Two, background technology
General Plasmia indicating panel, form a unit cell (cell) by the interlayer that forms between front panel and back panel, filled neon (Ne) in each cell (cell), helium (He), or the mixed gas of neon and helium main discharge gases such as (Ne+He) and the inert gas that contains xenon on a small quantity.Above-mentioned a plurality of unit discharge cells (cell) are combined and are formed a pixel (Pixel).It is for example, red that (green (blue (Blue, B) cell (cell) is combined to form a pixel (pixel) for Green, G) cell (cell) for Red, R) cell (cell).Bear in aforesaid unit discharge cell (cell) when adding the guiding discharge of high frequency voltage, inert gas produces vacuum ultraviolet (Vacuum Ultraviolet ray), makes the light-emitting phosphor that forms between interlayer, display frame.Aforesaid Plasmia indicating panel has not only light but also thin structure, attracts tremendous attention as display device of new generation.
Fig. 1 is the method for displaying image synoptic diagram of prior art ionic medium display device.
As shown in Figure 1, plasma display system is divided into the different a plurality of subdomains (sub-field) of number of light emission times during with a frame (frame), during the subdomain (sub-field) of GTG value corresponding to the picture signal of input, make Plasmia indicating panel luminous, thus display image.
Each subdomain (sub-field) is divided into: the reseting period that balancedly produces discharge; Select during the location of discharge cell (cell); And during showing keeping of GTG according to discharge time.For example, when using 256 GTG display images in advance, will be equivalent to 1/60 second frame (frame) during (16.67ms) be divided into 8 subdomains (sub-field).
Simultaneously, 8 subdomains (sub-field) are divided into respectively: reseting period, during the location and during keeping.Wherein, in each subdomain (sub-field), increase during keeping with the ratio of 2n (n=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7).As mentioned above, different during the keeping in each subdomain (sub-field), thereby, GTG (Gray level) that can display image.
Light characteristic to aforesaid plasma display system describes following Fig. 2 a.
Fig. 2 a is the light characteristic comparative graph of plasma display system and cathode-ray tube (CRT).
Shown in Fig. 2 a, and cathode-ray tube (CRT) (Cathode-RayTube, CRT) and liquid crystal indicator (LiquidCrystalDisplay, LCD) to the vision signal of input,, thereby show required GTG with the light of analog form control demonstration, therefore, generally has nonlinear light characteristic.Different therewith, the plasma display system utilization can be opened the matrix form of (on)/the close discharge cell (cell) of (off) and be arranged (matrixarray), and the quantity of modulating light pulse shows GTG.Therefore, has linear light characteristic.The GTG display packing of above-mentioned plasma display system is called PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) method.
At this moment, in the display device such as cathode ray tube (CRT), show that electric current and light characteristic are 2.2 times ratio, therefore, external image signals such as broadcast singal, transmission is corresponding to the signal of 2.2 times inverse.Therefore, plasma display system with linear luminance characteristic, the picture signal of the outside input of reply is carried out contrary gamma compensated (reverse gamma compensation), and above-mentioned contrary gamma compensated (reversegammacompensation) is described following Fig. 2 b.
Fig. 2 b is in the prior art, the contrary gamma compensated of plasma display system (reverse gammacompensation) curve map.
Among Fig. 2 b, object brightness is ideal inverse gamma (reverse gamma) result who compensates in advance, intrinsic brilliance is the result after the contrary gamma compensated (reverse gamma compensation), it is the particular luminance value that shows, PDP brightness is not carry out under the contrary state of gamma compensated (reverse gamma compensation), and the brightness value of measurement is below 3.
Shown in Fig. 2 b, the GTG value of object brightness from ' 0 ' to 61 stages of ' 60 ' is shown as different brightness values respectively.Different therewith, the GTG value of intrinsic brilliance from ' 0 ' to 61 stages of ' 60 ' only is shown as 8 kinds of brightness values.Therefore, in the plasma display system, when carrying out, can't show sufficient GTG, therefore will doubling of the image false contouring (Contour Noise) together occur seeming in darker field against gamma compensated (reverse gamma compensation).
Aforesaid in order to show, the GTG of deficiency among the PDP, use halftoning (half tone) methods such as shake (dithering) method or error diffusion (error diffusion) method, wherein error diffusion (error diffusion) method is described following Fig. 3.
Fig. 3 a and Fig. 3 b are in the prior art, the error diffusion of Plasmia indicating panel (errordiffusion) method synoptic diagram.
Fig. 3 a is in the prior art, the error diffusion of 1 channel mode (error diffusion) method is carried out the figure of spatiality explanation, Fig. 3 b is to example of multichannel, and promptly the error diffusion of 2 channel modes (error diffusion) method is carried out the figure of spatiality explanation.
Shown in Fig. 3 a and Fig. 3 b, error diffusion (errordiffusion) method, the error effect that takes place when making corresponding pixel (pixel) carry out quantization (Quantization) is to adjacent pixels (pixel), thereby spatiality ground solves the compensation of error to broadening.
Wherein, with reference to figure 3a, error diffusion in 1 channel (error diffusion) method, with adjacent pixels (pixel), be lastrow (line) three pixels (pixel) (a, b, c) and next door adjacent pixels (pixel) error amount and the particular factor that take place in (d) multiply each other.Then, will (i) be worth addition, carry out quantization with the error amount and the center cell (cell) of above-mentioned multiplication.Then, the storage of the error amount that produces during with above-mentioned quantization is expert in (line) storer, and in each pixel (pixel) said process repeatedly.
Aforesaid error diffusion (errordiffusion) method especially can show quite high image quality in moving image, and can not occur owing to the certain image noise (pattern noise) that utilizes shake (dithering) method to take place.
But error diffusion (errordiffusion) method is when showing static image, and is identical with shake (dithering) method, will static figure (pattern) occur.Above-mentioned static figure (pattern) will multiply each other with fractional value, thereby error diffusion (errordiffusion) coefficient of diffusion will keep certain value, therefore, in specific GTG, be shown as the error diffusion figure (errordiffusionpattern) of accumulation.Especially when the luminance difference of actual gray was big, above-mentioned error diffusion figure (errordiffusionpattern) was quite strong, may cause image noise (pattern noise).Especially more serious in the much darker pictures of low GTG.
Again, above-mentioned noise is along with display device is tending towards maximizing, and is more serious in the multichannel pattern of using for high-speed driving.
That is, in the aforesaid multichannel pattern, picture signal is divided into 2 channel mode CH1 shown in Fig. 3 b, CH2 carries out error diffusion (error diffusion) respectively to each channel.
More specifically say, with first channel (CH1) adjacent pixels (pixel), promptly, three pixels (pixel) (a of the same channel of lastrow (line), b, c) error amount that takes place in (d) of the next door adjacent pixels (pixel) of identical channel multiplies each other with particular factor respectively, with (i) propagated error of center cell (cell).Second channel (CH2) is also identical, with adjacent pixels (pixel), promptly, three pixels (pixel) of the same channel of lastrow (line) (a ', b ', c ') error amount that takes place in the next door adjacent pixels (pixel) of identical channel (d ') multiplies each other with particular factor respectively, with (i) propagated error of center cell (cell).
In the aforesaid multichannel pattern, each channel all uses identical figure (pattern) to carry out error diffusion (error diffusion), so noise will be more serious.And because noise increases the weight of, then people can see, the image quality of picture also reduces more.

As shown in Figure 6, error diffusion (error diffusion) method, the error effect that takes place when making corresponding pixel (pixel) carry out quantization (Quantization) is to adjacent pixels (pixel), thus spatiality ground solves the compensation of error to broadening.
Wherein, error diffusion (error diffusion) method, with each error amount of generation in the adjacent pixels (pixel) and specific multiplication, will be worth addition with the error amount and the center cell (cell) of above-mentioned multiplication, carry out quantization (Quantization).Then, the error amount that takes place during again with above-mentioned quantization (Quantization) stores in row (line) storer, and in every pixel (pixel) said process repeatedly.
That is, as shown in Figure 6, error diffusion piece (error diffusion block) is carried out spatiality feedback process (feedback routine) repeatedly, thus the brightness value and the output of approaching above-mentioned object brightness of mapping (mapping).Say that more specifically among Fig. 6, the process of work can be represented with following mathematical formulae 1 and mathematical formulae 2.
E
n(i,j)=f
n(i,j)-B
n(i,j)
Wherein, mathematical formulae 1, the parameter among mathematical formulae 2 and Fig. 6 is as giving a definition:
N refers to, current frame (frame).
(i j) refers to F, carries out the GTG value of above-mentioned contrary gamma compensated (reverse gamma compensation) back input.
Q piece (block) refers to, quantization piece (Quantization block).
(i j) refers to B, through the GTG value of quantization (Quantization).
(i j) refers to E, the error amount that takes place in quantization (Quantization) process.
(i j) refers to f, will carry out the GTG value of contrary gamma compensated (reverse gamma compensation) back input and the value of quantization (Quantization) error amount addition.
That is, (i j) is, with ((i j) multiplies each other, then the value of addition with error diffusion (error diffusion) coefficient h for i, j) error amount of adjacent pixels (pixel) and H piece (block) with F in the present frame (frame) f.
Then, the row among Fig. 5 (line) storage part 432 will be that unit stores with row (line) through the picture signal of contrary gamma compensated (reverse gammacompensation).Again, the GTG value of the picture signal of error diffusion (error diffusion) is carried out in 432 storages of row (line) storage part, and repeats said process in every pixel (pixel).
Delayed image signal portion 433 use error diffusion couples are according to forms (error diffusion lookuptable) 431, in order will to be reflected in the adjacent cell (cell) through the new GTG value of error diffusion (error diffusion), and the delayed image signal.
Wherein, error diffusion among the present invention (error diffusion) execution portion 434, unlike the prior art, will be corresponding to the image signal data in two above pixels (pixel) field in active area field, distinguish and carry out error diffusion (error diffusion) by each channel, thereby reduce image noise (patternnoise), make it can carry out high-speed driving, shown in Figure 7 to being described as follows of this.
Fig. 7 is in the one embodiment of the invention, the synoptic diagram of pixel (pixel) field and error diffusion (error diffusion) method.
As shown in Figure 7, a plurality of pixels (pixel) field corresponding to the picture field of display image can be divided into two above pixels (pixel) field.
Promptly, as an example, 1920*1080Full HD picture is divided into field, left side (ED.1) and field, right side (ED.2), can be with image signal data corresponding to field, left side (ED.1), with divide into channel respectively corresponding to the image signal data of field, right side (ED.2), transmit signal with the multichannel pattern.
Wherein, the multichannel pattern refers to, image signal data is divided into a plurality of channels, above-mentioned channel and a clock signal is carried out synchronously also output, thereby can improve the technology of the transfer rate of image signal data.
Aforesaid multichannel pattern, display of high resolution easily not only can also solve the problem of clock surplus (clock margin).Again, as mentioned above, can carry out high-speed driving, drive, reduce the burden that high frequency is handled thereby can reduce frequency.
Wherein, the present invention in above-mentioned multichannel pattern, presses the picture field and distinguishes channel, thereby can significantly reduce the noise that the multichannel pattern occurs in the prior art unlike the prior art.
Promptly, more specifically say, as shown in Figure 7, to be made as the 1st channel corresponding to the image signal data of the pixel (pixel) of field (ED.1) on the left of the picture, to be made as the 2nd channel corresponding to the image signal data of the pixel (pixel) in field, picture right side (ED.2), each channel and a clock signal are carried out synchronously and output, thereby can carry out high-speed driving.
Again, to divide into channel corresponding to the image signal data in pixel (pixel) field of each division, carry out error diffusion (error diffusion) by each channel, thereby can prevent that in the multichannel pattern of prior art, the overlapping phenomenon of identical figure (pattern) noise all appears in each channel.Thereby, can improve the quality of the image that display device shows.
Again, in the one embodiment of the invention, the critical part that plural pixel (pixel) field is adjacent is carried out error diffusion (error diffusion) after can be overlapping.Promptly, as shown in Figure 7, in right pixel (pixel) field (ED.2) of left pixel (pixel) field (ED.1) of picture and picture, error diffusion (error diffusion) is carried out after can be overlapping in certain pixel (pixel) field (OL) of critical part.
Carry out error diffusion (errordiffusion) with after the overlapping of picture pixel (pixel) field as above divided, thereby not only can remove the contingent noise of critical part, display frame more swimmingly.
Again, as above overlaid pixel (pixel) field and carry out error diffusion (error diffusion) can prevent error diffusion (error diffusion) initial stage, because the noise that unsettled error diffusion (error diffusion) causes.
That is, when carrying out error diffusion (error diffusion) method, the error amount of pixel (pixel) builds up, and can obtain more stable error amount, therefore can improve the reliability of error diffusion (error diffusion).But, when carrying out error diffusion (error diffusion) first, only use the error amount of initial pixel (pixel) to carry out error diffusion (error diffusion), therefore, stable figure (pattern) can not appear, and noise appears, it being overlaped and carry out error diffusion (error diffusion) to prevent above-mentioned phenomenon.
Wherein, certain pixel (pixel) field of above-mentioned critical part is made as more than 8 pixels (pixel), thereby can makes image noise (pattern noise) minimum.Again, more reasonably be, certain pixel (pixel) field of above-mentioned critical part be made as more than 16 pixels (pixel), thereby can make image noise (pattern noise) reach optimum condition, improve image quality.
Again, when carrying out error diffusion (error diffusion), spread the direction of (error diffusion) by each row (line) departure, thereby can reduce the image noise (pattern noise) of error diffusion (error diffusion), shown in Figure 8 to being described as follows of this.
Fig. 8 is in another example of the present invention, the synoptic diagram of error diffusion (error diffusion) method.
As shown in Figure 8, as an example, a plurality of pixels (pixel) field corresponding to the picture field of display image can be divided into two above pixels (pixel) field, and the image signal data in above-mentioned field is divided into a plurality of channels.
Promptly, as an example, 1920*1080Full HD picture is divided into field, left side (ED.1) and field, right side (ED.2), can be with image signal data corresponding to field, left side (ED.1), with divide into channel respectively corresponding to the image signal data of field, right side (ED.2), transmit signal with the multichannel pattern.
Promptly, more specifically say, as shown in Figure 8, to be made as the 1st channel corresponding to the image signal data of the pixel (pixel) of field (ED.1) on the left of the picture, to be made as the 2nd channel corresponding to the image signal data of the pixel (pixel) in field, picture right side (ED.2), each channel and a clock signal are carried out synchronously and output, thereby can carry out high-speed driving.
Again, to divide into channel corresponding to the image signal data in pixel (pixel) field of each division, carry out error diffusion (error diffusion) by each channel, thereby can prevent that in the multichannel pattern of prior art, the overlapping phenomenon of identical figure (pattern) noise all appears in each channel.
Wherein, in the another embodiment of the present invention, pressing pixel (pixel) field of as above dividing, promptly, when each channel carries out error diffusion (error diffusion), can adjust the direction of error diffusion (error diffusion) by each pixel column (pixel line).That is,, can in each pixel column (pixelline), all change the direction of error diffusion (error diffusion), carry out error diffusion (error diffusion) in the sawtooth mode as an example.
As mentioned above, adjust the direction of error diffusion (error diffusion), thereby can reduce the image noise (pattern noise) that occurs when carrying out error diffusion (error diffusion), show the image quality better pictures with equidirectional.
Among aforesaid the present invention, the effect that the image noise (pattern noise) that is presented on the image is reduced to some extent is compared as follows shown in Figure 9.
Fig. 9 a and Fig. 9 b are among the present invention, the comparison synoptic diagram of the error diffusion figure of plasma display system (errordiffusion pattern) picture.
Fig. 9 a is in the plasma display system of the prior art, an example of multichannel pattern, the i.e. error diffusion figure that occurs in 2 channel modes (error diffusion pattern) synoptic diagram, Fig. 9 b is in the plasma display system of the present invention, an example of multichannel pattern, i.e. the error diffusion figure that occurs in 2 channel modes (error diffusion pattern) synoptic diagram.
Shown in Fig. 9 a and Fig. 9 b, occur among Fig. 9 a, the error diffusion figure of multichannel pattern of the prior art (error diffusion pattern) is divided into other channels with adjacent pixels (pixel), carries out error diffusion (error diffusion).At this moment, because all identical error diffusion figure (errordiffusion pattern) in each channel, channel 1 is combined as one with 2,2 pixels of channel (pixel) unit, 2 heavy error diffusion figure noises (error diffusion pattern noise) will occur.
On the contrary, shown in Fig. 9 b, with the image signal data in pixel (pixel) field divided, distinguish among the present invention by channel, and when carrying out error diffusion (error diffusion) by each channel, error diffusion figure (error diffusion pattern) evenly and fine is shown.
As mentioned above, the use of error diffusion among the present invention (error diffusion) method, can remove the 2 heavy error diffusion figure noises (error diffusionpattern noise) that use multichannel pattern of the prior art and cause, improve the display capabilities of GTG.
Therefore, not only realized the high-speed driving display device among the present invention, display of high resolution, and improved the image quality problem that wherein takes place, thus can improve the quality of the image of display device demonstration.
Aforesaid, structure of the present invention is not to be subject to the foregoing description.That is, be not to be subject to 2 divisions that pixel (pixel) field are divided into field, right side and field, left side, can carry out 3 and divide, 4 divide, and 5 divide, 6 divisions etc.Along with increasing of resolution, can increase the quantity of division.
Again, the above embodiment of the present invention not only can be used for plasma display system, can also be used for LCD, DMD, and Projector, FED, in the Flame Image Process of all display device such as SED, thus the reliability of raising Flame Image Process.
As mentioned above, plasma display system among the present invention and image processing method thereof can improve the speed of Flame Image Process; Can reduce the noise that occurs in the picture; Can improve the quality of picture; Can carry out high-speed driving, thereby reduce the burden that high frequency is handled.
