Abstract

PURPOSE: An upsampler using a median filter and a frame memory is provided so that effects of a motion detection upsampler can be obtained, simplifying hardware constitution. CONSTITUTION: An input data is applied to a line memory(15) and a vertical peaking(18) through a field memory(11), and applied to a line memory(13) and a vertical peaking(17) through a field memory(12). The outputs from the line memories(13,15) are applied to the vertical peakings(17,18), and applied to the vertical peakings(17,18) through line memories(14,16). In addition, the outputs from the vertical peakings(17,18) are applied to an upsampler(30), and applied to the upsampler(30) through line memories(19,20). The output from the upsampler(30) passes through a horizontal peaking(21). That is, when an interlace type is converted into a progressive type, or a field double is performed, the upsampler performs upsampling by using the simple frame memory and median filter. Accordingly, effects of a general 3D motion detection upsampler can be obtained, without requiring an additional hardware.

It is about a sampler.

It was.

그러나 상기된 종래기술은 복잡한 알고리즘이 구현되어져야 하므로 화질에 열화가 발생되는 문제점과 복잡한 알고리즘때문에 실제품에 적용하기에 어려움이 따르는 것이었다.However, the above-described prior art has a difficulty in applying to a real product because of a problem that deterioration in image quality and a complicated algorithm have to be implemented a complex algorithm.

To keep it simple.

이러한 본 발명은 메모리를 이용하여 입력데이타를 저장하고 수직윤곽 보정을 한 후 n개의 라인을 선택하여 메디안 필터를 통과시키고, 프레임 메모리를 이용하여 데이타를 지연시킨 후 n개의 라인메모리를 이용하여 수평윤곽 보정하고 n개의 라인메모리와 멀티플렉서를 이용하여 메디안 필터를 위한 라인을 선택한 후 비교기를 이용하여 중간값을 뽑아내고 수평윤곽 보정을 하도록 하므로써 이루어 진다.The present invention stores the input data using the memory and corrects the vertical contour, and then selects n lines to pass through the median filter, delays the data using the frame memory, and then uses the horizontal contour using the n line memories. This is done by calibrating, selecting lines for the median filter using n line memories and multiplexers, and then extracting the median using a comparator and performing horizontal contour correction.

도 4 는 본 발명에서의 100(120)HZ 인터레이스에서의 설명도이고,4 is an explanatory diagram of 100 (120) HZ interlace in the present invention,

도 5 는 본 발명에서의 50(60)HZ 프로그레시브에서의 설명도이다.5 is an explanatory diagram in 50 (60) HZ progressive in the present invention.

본 발명은 업샘플러(30)에서 업샘플링 후에 고주파가 열화되는 것을 방지하기 위하여 우선 버티칼 피킹(17)(18)에서 버티칼 피킹을 행하게 한다.According to the present invention, vertical picking is performed in the vertical picking 17 and 18 to prevent the high frequency from deteriorating after the upsampling in the upsampler 30.

여기서 비티칼 피킹(17)(18)에 버티칼 피킹 계수는 다음과 같다.Here, the vertical peaking coefficients in the vertical peaking 17 and 18 are as follows.

Vertical filter = (ypeak(a/4-b/2+c/4))/256+bVertical filter = (ypeak (a / 4-b / 2 + c / 4)) / 256 + b

즉 2개의 라인메모리를 이용하여 중심값에 대해서 비티칼 피킹을 하여 업샘플러 이후에도 고주파 성분을 유지시키도록 한다.In other words, two line memories are used to perform peak picking on the center value to maintain high frequency components even after the upsampler.

이후에는 업샘플러 기능(function)을 구현하는데 있어 다음 표와 같이 f1out*, f2out* 라는 새로운 개념의 필드를 만들면 된다.Then, to implement the upsampler function, create a new concept field called f1out * and f2out * as shown in the following table.

50/60 HZ interlaced input field50/60 HZ interlaced input field A1 A 1 B2 B 2 f1outf1out f1out*f1out * f2outf2out f2out*f2out *

즉 필드더블이므로 새로운 필드는 A1을 그대로 이용하고 f1out*는 A1,B2를 이용하여 데이타의 계수(coefficient)를 바꿔가면서 새로운 필드를 만들되 f1out*를 만들때는 A1에 웨이트(weight)가 더 많이 가해지도록 한다.That is exactly used for a new field, so field double is A 1 and f1out * is A 1, using the B 2 going to change a coefficient (coefficient) data mandeuldoe a new field when creating a f1out * weight to A 1 (weight) is Allow more to be added.

f2out*는 A1,B2를 이용하여 데이타의 계수를 바꿔가면서 새로운 필드를 만들되 f2out*를 만들때는 B2에 웨이트가 더 많이 가해지도록 한다.f 2 out * uses A 1 and B 2 to change the coefficients of the data, creating a new field, but when f2out * is created, more weight is applied to B 2 .

이와 같이 필드별로 웨이트가 다른 것은 상관도에 따라서 달라지게 되는 것으로 결국 새로 만들어지는 필드는 입력의 어느필드와 더 많은 상관도가 있느냐는 것이다.As such, the different weights for each field depend on the degree of correlation, which means that the newly created field has more correlation with the input field.

f2out는 B2를 이용하여 여기서 나온 출력은 각각 1라인 지연시킨 후 도 2 의 업샘플러 블록에 보낸다.f2out uses B 2 to delay the output from each of the output lines to the upsampler block of FIG.

도 1 의 업샘플러(30)에서는 필드에 따라 각각 다른 3라인을 도 4도 도 5 와 같이 선택한다.In the upsampler 30 of FIG. 1, three different lines are selected as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 according to fields.

최종적인 출력은 선택된 3라인의 값중 중간값을 비교기를 이용하여 뽑아내게 하므로써 업샘플러(30)의 출력은 다음과 같다.The final output is to extract the middle value of the selected three lines by using a comparator, so that the output of the upsampler 30 is as follows.

upsampler output = yc-(hxpeak(yb/4-yc/2+yd/4))/64-(mxpeak(ya/4-yc/2+ye/4))/64upsampler output = yc- (hxpeak (yb / 4-yc / 2 + yd / 4)) / 64- (mxpeak (ya / 4-yc / 2 + ye / 4)) / 64

이와 같은 계수를 이용하여 수평 피킹(21)에서 수평윤곽을 아래의 표와 같이 보정하므로써 간단한 회로 구성에 의거 업샘플러 구성이 가능하다.By using the above coefficients, the up-sampler can be configured based on a simple circuit configuration by correcting the horizontal contour in the horizontal picking 21 as shown in the table below.

50/60 HZ interlaced50/60 HZ interlaced A1 A 1 B2 B 2 f1out / f1out*f1out / f1out * f2out / f2out*f2out / f2out *

본 발명은 프레임 메모리와 메디안 필터만을 이용하여 종래의 3D 모션 디텍션이 있는 업샘플러가 있는 회로와 같은 효과를 내면서 동시에 별도의 하드웨어 추가없이 NTSC, PAL 을 동시에 프로그레시브할 수 있고 100HZ, 120HZ 필드 더블도 할 수 있는 것이다.According to the present invention, the frame memory and the median filter can be used to achieve the same effect as the circuit with the upsampler with the conventional 3D motion detection, and can simultaneously perform NTSC and PAL without additional hardware. It can be.
