Description

Plasma display system and image processing method thereof
One, technical field
The invention relates to plasma display system, a kind of plasma display system and image processing method thereof that can more effectively detect MPD (Moving Picture Distortion) of saying so in more detail.
Two, background technology
In general, plasma display system (Plasma Display Apparatus) comprises that the next door that is formed between front panel and the rear panel forms the Plasmia indicating panel of a unit cell.In each unit, be filled with neon (Ne), helium (He) or charging and discharging gas as the mixed gas (Ne+He) of neon and helium and the inert gas that contains small amount of xenon.When relying on HF voltage to discharge, make inert gas send vacuum ultraviolet (Vacuum Ultraviolet rays), thereby make the light-emitting phosphor that is formed between the next door come display frame.Such plasma display system structure is not only thin but also light, is the display device of future generation that gets most of the attention.
Fig. 1 is the synoptic diagram that shows the method for the image that has plasma display system now.
As shown in Figure 1, plasma display system is divided into the mutually different a plurality of subdomains of discharge time with an image frame phase, makes Plasmia indicating panel luminous in relative sub-regions phase of gray-scale value of the vision signal of input, thus display image.
Each subdomain is divided into initial period, the address period of selecting discharge cell that produces discharge equably and relies on discharge time to realize keeping the phase of gray scale.For example, in the time of be with 256 gray scale display images, the image frame phase (16.67ms) that just will be equivalent to 1/60 second is divided into 8 subdomains.
Simultaneously, 8 subdomains are divided into initial period, address period again separately and keep the phase.Here, keep the phase in each subdomain with 2 nThe ratio of (n=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7) increases.Like this, the phase of keeping changes in each subdomain, therefore can realize the gray scale (Gray level) of image.
Like this, if the many subdomains of usage quantity just can be realized the gray scale of greater number.But, be the time that an image frame distributes limitation to be arranged, therefore the subdomain quantity that can use is in fact below 12.All the gray scale number that uses 12 subdomains to access is 2 12Individual, though quantity is quite a lot of, can not all use.Because so the subdomain type of drive of plasma display system as shown in Figure 2, produces dynamic image false contouring (dynamic false contour noise) in animation.
Fig. 2 is the synoptic diagram of the animation false contouring in the existing plasma display system of explanation.
As shown in Figure 2, in the image of being realized by 8 subdomains, when the object of motion had gray-scale value 128 and gray-scale value 127, in fact the grey value difference between both sides' pixel was 1.But along with the moving direction of the object that moves, the gray-scale value that people's sight line track will be seen is 255 or 0.Promptly, in a pixel, when the gray-scale value of the vision signal of image frame (n-1) before is 127, the gray-scale value of the vision signal of current image frame (n) is 128 o'clock, the subdomains of 127 of image frame values before unlatching shows are opened the time durations of 128 subdomains that are worth that show current image frame then, owing to close the subdomain that is equivalent to an image frame, so 0 value occurs, false contouring take place.In addition, in a pixel, when the gray-scale value of the vision signal of image frame (n-1) before is 128, the gray-scale value of the vision signal of current image frame (n) is 127 o'clock, opens the subdomains of 128 values of image frame before showing, then, directly open the subdomain of 127 values that show current image frame, not free blank is so open the subdomain that is equivalent to an image frame, so 255 values occur, false contouring take place.
In such dynamic image, in order to suppress false contouring, in order to detect the regional of dynamic image false contouring appearance and to compensate false contouring, prior art has been used multiple algorithm.In such dynamic image, in order to detect a large amount of zones that occur of false contouring, as shown in Figure 3, prior art has been used MPD (Moving Picture Distortion) method.
Fig. 3 is the synoptic diagram of the existing MPD detection method of explanation.
As shown in Figure 3, at first, existing MPD detection method utilizes the subdomain mapping code to image frame (n-1) and current image frame (n) before the same pixel to calculate the MPD value.Here, the MPD value is by each subdomain the subdomain mapping code of image frame (n-1) and current image frame (n) before to be carried out XOR (XOR) computing, and the result that will draw multiply by the resulting value of weighted value of each subdomain then.
For example, in Fig. 3, when the XOR result by image frame (n-1) before each subdomain and current image frame (n) is " 0,0,0,0,1,1,0,0,1,0 ", when the weighted value of each subdomain was " 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,64,64,64 ", the MPD value was 102 according to following mathematical expression 1.
Mathematical expression 1
MPD value: 1*16+1*32+1*64=102
Afterwards, the MPD value that generates like this detects big zone and is the MPD zone, then carries out the false contouring compensation.
Here, there are the following problems for prior art: in order to detect MPD, the subdomain of the subdomain of image frame mapping code and current image frame shines upon code before the utilization, and therefore, the subdomain of the subdomain mapping code of image frame shines upon code memory before needing to store.This subdomain mapping code memory causes the production unit price of plasma display system to rise, and, owing to the subdomain mapping code of image frame before the comparison operation and the subdomain mapping code of current image frame, so algorithm constitutes complexity.

Five, embodiment
Below, with reference to accompanying drawing the foundation specific embodiments of the invention are described.
Fig. 4 is the synoptic diagram of explanation according to the plasma display system of one embodiment of the present of invention.
As shown in Figure 4, the plasma display system according to one embodiment of the present of invention comprises: image frame storer 400, moving area detecting device 410, oppositely gamma corrector 420, partly transfer device 430, MPD detecting device 440, false contouring compensatory zone determining device 450, false contouring compensator 460.
Image frame storer 400 is with the image frame unit storage vision signal from the outside input, this be for moving area detecting device 410 relatively before image frame (n-1) and current image frame (n) thus vision signal detection moving area.That is the vision signal of the current image frame (n) of the vision signal of image frame (n-1) and real-time input compares before, image frame storer 400 being stored in advance.Not only moving area detecting device 410 can use the vision signal with the storage of image frame unit, and other funtion parts also can be used.
Moving area detecting device 410 relatively 410 inputs of image frame storer before image frame (n-1) vision signal and from the gray-scale value of the vision signal of the current image frame (n) of outside input, thereby detect moving area in the image that shows.In more detail, moving area detecting device 410 detects the zone of above-mentioned grey value difference more than predefined the 1st threshold values behind the grey value difference of the vision signal of the vision signal of image frame before the computing (n-1) and current image frame (n).At this moment, the computing of grey value difference is performed at same pixel or the same area.That is, for same pixel or the same area, when the gray value differences different time that has more than the 1st threshold values, in the picture of actual displayed, with respect to image frame before, current image frame objects displayed is moved, and hence one can see that has grey value difference.Like this, it is moving area that the zone more than the 1st threshold values is detected, and transmits the information of moving areas then to false contouring compensatory zone determining device 450.
Oppositely gamma corrector 420 is to the vision signal of the reverse gray correction of each image frame from the outside input.The brightness value of the actual displayed that is characterized as the vision signal gray-scale value that plasma display system has forms linearity curve.On the contrary, vision signal from the outside input, the brightness value of gray-scale value has gamma characteristic, therefore one embodiment of the present of invention have reverse gamma corrector 420, reverse gray correction outer video signal, so that for gray-scale value, the picture of plasma display system actual displayed has linear brightness value.
Partly transfer device 430 half to transfer the vision signal of reverse gray correction.Oppositely the vision signal of gray correction has reduced the gray scale expressive force in its signal processing.For it is compensated, one embodiment of the present of invention have half and transfer device 430, thereby in the gray scale expressive force that raising has reduced, guarantee the gray scale linearity.Half accent method like this has shake (dithering) and error diffusion method.Can use or use with dither method and error diffusion method separately.
In general, reverse gamma corrector 420 and partly transfer device 430 to use as the necessary funtion part of handling the vision signal of importing to plasma display system, but in one embodiment of the invention, when carrying out this function, by being positioned at the front end of MPD detecting device 440, be converted to the final video signal that the preceding plasma display system of false contouring compensation can show, promptly, from the vision signal of partly transferring device input as the final video signal, when the plasma display system actual displayed, be as judging whether to take place the vision signal of false contouring, even the vision signal that detects the zone that false contouring will take place is used.
MPD value between the pixel that the subdomain mapping code computing of the vision signal of image frame (n-1) was close to mutually before MPD detecting device 440 utilized, thus the MPD zone detected.According to 440 vision signals of utilizing an image frame of MPD detecting device of one embodiment of the present of invention, do not need the subdomain mapping code memory of prior art.And different with prior art, the video signal detection MPD before utilizing between the neighborhood pixels of image frame (n-1) can detect MPD more simply and effectively.Below by Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 this is described in more details.
The MPD that false contouring compensatory zone determining device 450 utilizes the moving area of moving area detecting device 410 inputs to detect information and 440 inputs of MPD detecting device detects information, judges the false contouring compensatory zone of image in the picture of current image frame (n).Here, the false contouring compensatory zone is that moving area also is the MPD zone simultaneously, is called the multiple zone of false contouring in dynamic image.That is, the information of the information of false contouring compensatory zone determining device 450 logical multiplications (AND) computing moving area detecting device 410 inputs and MPD440 input, thus judge whether to be the false contouring compensatory zone.
The vision signal of the false contouring compensatory zone that false contouring compensator 460 false contourings compensation subdomain mapping false contouring compensatory zone determining device 450 is judged.The subdomain mapping construction form of the degree of false contouring occur, promptly change, therefore make the subdomain mapping code of false contouring compensation subdomain mapping code and non-false contouring compensatory zone different along with subdomain mapping code along with vision signal.That is, conversion subdomain mapping code, thus false contouring appears in Min. ground.
Like this, one embodiment of the present of invention have the above-mentioned functions part, detect the false contouring zone and show the vision signal that compensates false contouring, thereby can suppress false contouring when showing dynamic image.
Fig. 5 is the synoptic diagram of explanation according to the operating characteristic of the MPD detecting device of one embodiment of the invention.
As shown in Figure 5, MPD detecting device 500 has subdomain mapper 510, MPD determining device 520 and MPD zone setting apparatus 530.
The vision signal of image frame (n-1) before the mapping of subdomain mapper 510 subdomains.The same with prior art, it is for computing MPD value, the subdomain mapping code of extraction vision signal.In addition, unlike the prior art be to extract and use the subdomain mapping code of the vision signal of an image frame.
MPD determining device 520 utilizes the subdomain mapping code computing MPD value of neighborhood pixels, thereby judges that the MPD value is whether more than the 2nd threshold values of stipulating.For example, as shown in Figure 5, by each subdomain the subdomain mapping code of pixel P (n) contiguous mutually on the space and pixel p (n-1) is carried out XOR (XOR) computing, the result that will draw multiply by the weighted value of each subdomain then, thereby draws the MPD value as mathematical expression 1.Afterwards, more predefined the 2nd threshold values and MPD value judge whether more than the 2nd threshold values.Here, it is the moving direction of considering image that MPD detects, and carries out between contiguous up and down pixel.
The pixel that MPD zone setting apparatus 530 is judged with MPD determining device 520 is the zone that regulation is set at the center, transmits the information of above-mentioned zone as the MPD zone to false contouring compensatory zone determining device 450 then.Like this, for image frame (n-1) before, the mobile degree of considering the image of current image frame (n) is one more than the pixel at least, MPD zone setting apparatus 530 as mentioned above, being the center with the pixel of judging is set at the MPD zone with the pixel of regulation number.
As mentioned above, MPD detecting device 500 has subdomain mapper 510, MPD determining device 520 and MPD zone setting apparatus 530, thereby utilizes the vision signal of an image frame can detect MPD.
Fig. 6 is the synoptic diagram of explanation according to the false contouring region decision method of one embodiment of the invention.
As shown in Figure 6, in one embodiment of the invention, the grey value difference of image frame and current image frame before the computing at first, thus the zone that is moved detected.
And relatively the subdomain of neighborhood pixels p (n) and p (n-1) shines upon code, computing MPD value.When the MPD value when the 2nd threshold values is above, be set at the MPD zone, thereby regard the false contouring generation area in the dynamic image as.At this moment, along with moving direction and size, making the MPD zone is central extension with pixel p (n) and p (n-1).
Afterwards, be that moving area is again simultaneously that the zone that MPD takes place is judged as the false contouring zone.
Like this, in an embodiment of the present invention, the video signal detection MPD of image frame is reflected in it current image frame then, thereby can judges the false contouring compensatory zone before utilizing.For example, as shown in Figure 6, according to moving direction, the gray-scale value of the pixel p (n) of image frame before the gray-scale value of the pixel p of current image frame (n-1) becomes.That is, the gray-scale value of the neighborhood pixels of image frame becomes the gray-scale value of the pixel after moving before.Therefore, even only utilize the vision signal of image frame before, also can detect the MPD of current image frame fully.
As mentioned above, the present invention utilizes from the vision signal of outside input and can detect MPD effectively by improving plasma display system and image processing method thereof.
And, by improving plasma display system and image processing method thereof, can reduce the production unit price.
And, by improving plasma display system and image processing method thereof, in the image that shows, can suppress the animation false contouring.
As mentioned above, in the scope that does not change the technology of the present invention thought and technical characterictic, the staff of the technical field of the invention can implement technology of the present invention with other concrete forms and constitute.
Therefore, embodiment recited above is exemplary in all respects, does not have limited.Patent claim of the present invention is set forth by claims, and all changes or the deformation form that are drawn by equal notion all belong to scope of the present invention.
