The user input unit 235 may be configured as a keypad, a button, a touch pad, or a touch screen. The user may input a command related to the image display apparatus 100 to the remote control apparatus 200 by manipulating the user input unit 235. When the user input unit 235 includes a hard key button, the user may input a command related to the image display apparatus 100 to the remote control apparatus 200 through a push operation of the hard key button.

The user input unit 235 may include a home key 740 as illustrated in FIGS. 7 to 8.

For example, when the home key 740 is briefly pressed once, the remote controller 200 is powered on, and when the home key 740 is briefly pressed once, the remote controller 200 is operated by powering off. Can be.

Then, when the home key 740 is pressed once for a long time while the remote controller 200 is turned on, pairing may be performed, and if it is pressed once again, the pairing may be released.

On the other hand, the display unit 745 may output different light when power on / off and pairing / unpairing.

Meanwhile, unlike the drawing, a power on / off key (not shown) and a pen touch mode key (not shown) for performing pairing may be separated.

For example, according to the operation of the power on / off key, the power of the remote controller 200 may be turned on or off, and when the pen touch mode key is operated once, the remote controller 200 wakes up. (wake up), enters the pen touch mode, and when the pen touch mode key is pressed again, the pen touch mode may be terminated.

In addition, the user input unit 235 may include various types of input means that can be operated by the user, and this embodiment does not limit the scope of the present invention.

The optical sensor unit 240 may detect light emitted from a specific discharge cell of the plasma display panel of the image display apparatus 100, for example, infrared rays. To this end, the optical sensor unit 240, as shown in FIG. 8, may include an optical sensor 710, an amplifier 715, and a comparator 720.

In the pen touch mode, the optical sensor 710 may detect light emitted from a corresponding discharge cell near or in contact with a specific discharge cell of the plasma display panel. In particular, infrared (IR) can be detected. The detected signal S IR may be, for example, as shown in FIG. 9A.

The amplifier 715 amplifies the optical signal S IR detected by the optical sensor 710. To this end, the amplifier 715 may include an OP AMP. The amplified signal Samp may be, for example, as shown in FIG. 9 (b).

Next, the comparison unit 720 compares the signal Samp amplified by the amplification unit 715 with the reference signal Sref, and the timing corresponding to a section that is equal to or greater than the reference signal Sref level among the amplified signals Samp. Output the signal Sf. In FIG. 9C, a section having a level higher than or equal to the reference signal Sref level among the amplified signals Samp has a low level.

The timing signal Sf corresponds to the position of a specific discharge cell, in particular, the x and y coordinates, and is input to the control unit 280 and used for the x and y coordinate calculation.

9, the low level section of the timing signal Sf corresponds to a section of a lower level, not a peak section of the detected optical signal S IR . In order to detect the signal more accurately, there is a method of setting the reference signal (Sref) level higher, but according to the surrounding environment when detecting the infrared light, the optical signal (S IR ) detected by the optical sensor 710 may include noise. The optical sensor unit 240 or the controller 280 may further perform signal processing on the timing signal Sf of FIG. 9C.

For example, a falling edge and a rising edge of the timing signal Sf of FIG. 9C may be calculated to set the average value to a low level. That is, it is possible to set the intermediate section between the falling edge and the rising edge to a low level. Thus, a digital signal almost similar to the actual waveform of the infrared signal can be calculated.

The output unit 250 may output a video or audio signal corresponding to an operation of the user input unit 235 or a signal transmitted from the image display apparatus 100. The user may recognize whether the user input unit 235 is manipulated or whether the image display apparatus 100 is controlled through the output unit 250.

For example, the output unit 250 may include a LED module 251 that is turned on when the user input unit 235 is operated or a signal is transmitted and received with the image display device 100 through the wireless communication unit 225, and a vibration module generating vibration. 253, a sound output module 255 for outputting sound, or a display module 257 for outputting an image.

The power supply unit 260 supplies power to the remote control apparatus 200. On the other hand, the power supply unit 260, when the remote control device 200 does not detect the light for more than the first predetermined time, enters the standby mode, it may limit the power of some modules. In addition, when the standby mode is not detected for more than a second predetermined time, the power supply may be stopped by stopping the power supply. The power supply unit 260 may resume power supply when a predetermined key included in the remote control apparatus 200 is operated or when light sensing is performed by the optical sensor unit 240 again.

The storage unit 270 may store various types of programs, application data, and the like necessary for controlling or operating the remote control apparatus 200. In particular, for a pairing operation with the pointing signal processing apparatus 400, information about a specific frequency band or a transmission data unit for a plurality of channels may be stored.

In the pen touch mode, the controller 280 receives a timing signal corresponding to a light detection signal that detects light emitted from a specific discharge cell of the plasma display panel from the light sensor unit 240. For example, a timing signal Sf as shown in FIG. 9C may be input.

The controller 280 performs signal processing on the received timing signal to calculate x, y coordinate signals in the plasma display panel.

In addition, the controller 280 may perform signal conversion to transmit the calculated x, y coordinate signal in an RF manner. In addition, the converted RF x, y coordinate signal may be output to the RF module 221.

On the other hand, the control unit 280, when the power on / off key 775 is operated, the power to the remote control device 200, via the pointing signal receiving device 300, the pointing signal processing device 400 Control to perform a pairing operation with the. The pairing operation may be performed before the pen touch mode key 235 enters the pen touch mode according to the operation.

As illustrated in FIG. 8, the remote controller 200 may further include an antenna 730, and may output data signals such as RF coordinate signals or other pairing signals output from the RF module. .

As illustrated in FIG. 8, the pointing signal receiver 300 may include an antenna 760 and an RF module 765. The antenna 760 receives an RF signal, and the received RF module 765 may process the received RF signal and output an x, y coordinate signal. The output coordinate signal is input to the pointing signal processing apparatus 400 connected in a wired or wireless manner.

The pointing signal processing apparatus 400 processes the signal based on the input coordinate signal, and transmits a predetermined image signal to the image display apparatus 100. Accordingly, the image display apparatus 100, specifically, the plasma display panel, can display a predetermined image (pointing image, etc.) in a specific discharge cell, that is, in a discharge cell corresponding to the corresponding coordinate (x, y coordinate). do.

The rotating ball 780 is disposed in front of the optical sensor 710 to rotate when in contact with the plasma display panel. As such, by implementing the part in contact with the plasma display panel with the rotating ball, wear of the contact part can be reduced, thereby improving the durability of the remote control device and the surface durability of the plasma display panel.

On the other hand, for smooth light sensing in the optical sensor 710, the rotating ball 780 is preferably made of a transparent material. That is, light emitted from the plasma display panel may pass through the transparent rotating ball 780 and may be detected by the optical sensor 710.

Although not shown in FIG. 8, the remote control apparatus 200 may further include a pressure detector (not shown) or a rotation detector (not shown).

For example, when the remote controller 200 is in contact with the plasma display panel, the rotary ball 780 of the remote controller 200 is directed toward the optical sensor 710 by the force of pressing the remote controller 200. You can retreat. According to the pressure, the pressure sensing unit may output signals of different levels. In addition, the detected pressure signal is transmitted to the controller 280. Accordingly, the image display apparatus 100 may display images having different sizes or thicknesses based on different pressure signals.

Meanwhile, a driving method for driving the plasma display panel provided in the display of the image display apparatus will be described below.

In the plasma display panel, the unit frame for implementing the gray level of the image may include a plurality of subfields.

In addition, the plurality of subfields may include a sustain period for implementing gradation according to an address period and a number of discharges for selecting discharge cells in which discharge cells will not occur or discharge cells in which discharge occurs. Period) may be included.

Alternatively, at least one subfield of the plurality of subfields of the frame may further include a reset period for initialization.

10 to 12 illustrate an operation of a plasma display panel in a pen touch mode according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 10, in the pen touch mode, at least one of a plurality of subfields constituting one frame may be set as a scan subfield.

For example, a first subfield and a second subfield among a plurality of subfields of a frame may be used as a scan subfield for detecting a touch position. In addition, the remaining subfields except the scan subfield among the plurality of subfields of the frame may be normal subfields (Normal SF). Here, the general subfield is a subfield for video display, that is, video gradation display, and is also referred to as a display subfield in comparison with the scan subfield.

In addition, in the normal mode other than the pen touch mode, the frame does not include the scan subfield, and all subfields included in the frame may be the general subfield.

In other words, in the pen touch mode, when the pen touch type remote controller 200 operates, at least one subfield of the plurality of subfields of the frame may be set as a scan subfield.

Referring to FIG. 11, the scan subfield may include a vertical scan subfield VSSF for detecting the vertical position of the touch position and a horizontal scan subfield HSSF for detecting the horizontal position of the touch position.

For example, in the pen touch mode, a first subfield among a plurality of subfields of a frame may be a vertical scan subfield, and a second subfield may be a horizontal scan subfield. As such, the vertical scan subfield and the horizontal scan subfield may be continuously arranged in one frame.

In the vertical scan address period VSAP of the vertical scan subfield VSSF, the touch scan signal TSP descending from the scan reference voltage Vsc may be supplied to the scan electrode.

Preferably, the touch scan signal TSP may be sequentially supplied to the plurality of scan electrodes Y. Alternatively, the touch scan signal TSP may be supplied to at least two scan electrodes Y at substantially the same time.

As such, when the touch scan signal TSP is supplied to the scan electrode Y, the voltages of the address electrode X and the sustain electrode Z may be kept substantially constant.

When the touch scan signal TSP is supplied to the scan electrode Y in the vertical scan address period VSAP, when the voltage of the address electrode X is set higher than the voltage of the sustain electrode Z, the scan electrode Y ) And the address electrode X may generate a discharge. In the following description, discharges sequentially generated in the vertical scan address period VSAP are referred to as vertical address discharges as described above.

In the address period of the horizontal scan subfield HSSF (hereinafter referred to as the horizontal scan address period HSAP), the touch data signal TDP may be supplied to the address electrode X. FIG.

Preferably, the touch data signal TDP may be sequentially supplied to the plurality of address electrodes X. Alternatively, the touch data signal TDP may be supplied to at least two address electrodes X at substantially the same time point.

As such, when the touch data signal TDP is supplied to the address electrode X, the voltages of the scan electrode Y and the sustain electrode Z may be kept substantially constant.

When the touch data signal TDP is supplied to the address electrode X in the horizontal scan address period HSAP, when the voltages of the scan electrode Y and the sustain electrode Z are kept constant, the scan electrode Y And discharge may occur between the sustain electrode Z and the address electrode X. Hereinafter, the discharge generated in the horizontal scan address period HSAP as described above is referred to as horizontal address discharge.

On the other hand, the remote control device described above, for example, the remote control device 200, based on the vertical address discharge, that is, the vertical address light generated in the vertical scan address period (VSAP), to the vertical coordinate (y coordinate) of the touch position. The corresponding information may be obtained, and information corresponding to the horizontal coordinate (x coordinate) of the touch position may be obtained based on the horizontal address discharge generated in the horizontal scan address period HSAP, that is, the horizontal address light.

For example, in the pen touch mode, as shown in FIG. 12, it is assumed that the position of the remote controller 200 is located at the third scan electrode line Y3 and the second address electrode line X2. In operation 200, during the vertical scan subfield VSSF of the scan subfield, the vertical address light generated by the third scan electrode line Y3 is sensed. The horizontal address light generated in the second address electrode line X2 is sensed during the horizontal scan subfield HSSF of the scan subfield.

In particular, it can be seen that the vertical coordinate of the touch position is Y3 based on the vertical address light sensing timing occurring in the third scan electrode line Y3, and the horizontal address light sensing timing occurring in the second address electrode line X2. Based on this, it can be seen that the horizontal coordinate of the touch position is X2.

The vertical light sensing timing and the horizontal light sensing timing may be calculated based on the scan sustain period SSP, respectively. Accordingly, the coordinate information of the touch position can be obtained simply.

Meanwhile, as in the case of FIG. 11, at least one of the scan electrode Y and the sustain electrode Z is touched in the scan sustain period SSP between the vertical scan address period VSAP and the horizontal scan address period HSAP. The sustain signal TSUS can be supplied.

On the other hand, unlike the drawing, it is also possible to alternately supply the touch sustain signal TSUS to the scan electrode Y and the sustain electrode Z in the scan sustain period SSP.

The scan sustain period SSP of FIG. 11 may include a synchronous sustain period and an identification sustain period. The scan sustain period may also be referred to as a reference sustain period in other terms.

In FIG. 11, two sync sustain pulses are applied to the scan electrode Y in the sync sustain period, but various examples are possible depending on the setting.

In FIG. 11, an identification sustain pulse is applied to the scan electrode Y after the synchronous sustain pulse, that is, after the second synchronous sustain pulse.

On the basis of such an identification sustain pulse, it is possible to perform vertical coordinate and horizontal coordinate calculation, exactly based on the identification sustain light. For example, as shown in FIG. 12, the vertical coordinate, that is, the Y3 coordinate may be calculated using the time difference between the identification sustain light and the vertical address light corresponding to the Y3 position. Then, the horizontal coordinate, that is, the X2 coordinate can be calculated using the time difference between the identification sustain light and the horizontal address light corresponding to the X2 position.

Of course, in addition to the identification sustain pulse, it is also possible to calculate the horizontal coordinate and the vertical coordinate by further utilizing the synchronous sustain pulse.

Meanwhile, in the embodiment of the present invention, a method for easily performing pairing will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 13 or below. In this case, for convenience of description, the above-described operation of the pointing signal receiving apparatus 300 and the pointing signal processing apparatus 400 may be described as being performed by the image display apparatus 100.

Referring to the drawings, first, a pairing request signal is received from the remote controller (S1310). In operation S1315, a pairing object for performing pairing is displayed based on the pairing request signal.

The pointing signal receiving apparatus 300 receives a pairing request signal from the remote control apparatus 200.

For example, when the home key 540 of the remote controller 200 is briefly pressed once and the home key 540 is pressed once long while the power is turned on, the remote controller 200 is The pairing request signal may be transmitted.

As another example, when the home key 540 of the remote controller 200 is briefly pressed once and the power is turned on, the remote controller 200 may immediately transmit a pairing request signal.

The pointing signal receiving apparatus 300 may receive a pairing request signal and transmit the pairing request signal to the pointing signal processing apparatus 400. Accordingly, the pointing signal processing apparatus 400 generates and outputs a pairing object that can be paired. The image display apparatus 100 may receive the corresponding image and display it on the display 180.

FIG. 15A illustrates that the home key 540 of the remote controller 200 operates to display a pairing object 1510 capable of pairing on the display 180 of the video display device 100.

Next, it is determined whether the remote controller 200 is located within a predetermined area within the pairing object (S1320), and if applicable, transmits a pairing response signal to the remote controller 200 (S1325).

Meanwhile, the pointing signal processing apparatus 400 receives coordinate information from the remote control apparatus 200 (S1417), and based on this, the pointing signal processing apparatus 400 may determine whether the remote control apparatus 200 is located within a predetermined area within the pairing object. have.

For example, when the pairing object 1510 capable of setting the pairing described above is displayed, the pen touch mode may be automatically entered. That is, according to the subfield according to the pen touch mode of FIG. 10, an image including the pairing object 1510 capable of pairing setting may be displayed on the display 180.

Accordingly, the remote control apparatus 200 detects the light emitted from the discharge cell of the plasma display panel and, based on the timing signal of the detected light, coordinate information (x, y coordinates), and a pointing signal receiver ( 300). In this case, since the pairing is not completed, a frequency band set as a default may be used between the remote control device 200 and the pointing signal receiving device 300.

The pointing signal processing apparatus 400 determines whether such coordinate information is located within a predetermined area within the pairing object. If applicable, the pairing response signal may be transmitted to the remote controller 200.

15B illustrates that the remote control device 200 moves and is located in the first area 1517 that represents the first remote control device item. Accordingly, the remote controller 200 may detect light emitted from the first area and transmit coordinate information corresponding thereto to the pointing signal processing apparatus 400.

Accordingly, the pointing signal processing apparatus 400 transmits a pairing response signal to the remote control apparatus 200, and generates and outputs an object 1520 indicating completion of pairing with the first remote control apparatus as shown in FIG. 15C. Can be. In addition, the display 180 of the image display apparatus 100 may display an object 1520 indicating completion of pairing. As a result, the user can easily perform pairing and confirm the pairing completion.

Meanwhile, steps 1320 and S1325 of FIG. 13 may correspond to steps 1420 and S1425 of FIG. 14, respectively.

On the other hand, when the remote control device 200 is provided with a pressure sensing unit (not shown) for sensing the pressure of the rotating ball in the vicinity of the rotating ball, the remote control device 200 may transmit a pressure sensing signal. . Accordingly, the input signal processing apparatus 400 may transmit a pairing response signal to the remote control apparatus 200 when the pressure sensing signal is received.

Next, after the pairing is completed, the pen touch main screen is displayed (S1330).

The pointing signal processing apparatus 400 may generate and output a pen touch main screen image for various pen touch operations after pairing is completed. In addition, the image display apparatus 100 may display a pen touch main screen image on the display 180.

15D illustrates that the pen touch main screen 1530 is displayed on the display 180 of the image display apparatus 100.

The pen touch main screen 1530 includes a pen touch menu 1535 including a sketchbook item, a photo decorating item, a My Gallery item, an Internet item, a family calendar item, and a paired remote. Control device item 1537, unpaired remote control device item 1539, and the like.

As shown in the figure, by focusing and displaying the paired remote control device item 1537, the user can easily grasp that the first remote control device is paired, even on the pen touch main screen 1530.

Meanwhile, operation S1320 of FIG. 13 may correspond to operation S1430 of FIG. 14.

Next, in the state where the pen touch main screen is displayed, it is determined whether the remote control device item is selected (S1335). In this case, the above-described step 1315 (S1315) or less may be performed again. Meanwhile, operation S1335 of FIG. 13 may correspond to operation S4353 of FIG. 14.

When the remote controller 200 is moved and located at the remote controller item in the pen touch main screen, pairing may be performed again with respect to the remote controller. If the coordinate information transmitted from the remote controller 200 corresponds to the coordinates of the remote controller item in the pen touch main screen, the pointing signal processing apparatus 400 may control to perform pairing again. That is, the object 1510 shown in FIG. 15A may be generated and output again.

18A illustrates that the position of the remote controller 200 is located in the first area 1517 indicating the first remote controller item while the pen touch main screen 1530 is displayed.

Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 18B, the pairing object 1510 for performing pairing may be displayed on the display of the image display apparatus 100. In this case, when the second area 1519 representing the second remote control device is selected in the pairing object 1510, pairing may be performed as the second remote control device. Thereafter, as illustrated in FIGS. 16C and 16, the object 1620 indicating the completion of pairing and the pen touch main screen 1530 may be displayed on the display 180 of the image display apparatus 100, respectively.

16A to 16D are similar to FIGS. 15A to 15D. However, the second area 1519 in the first area 1517 indicating the first remote control device item and the second area 1519 indicating the second remote control device in the pairing object 1510 that can be paired. There is a difference in that the remote control device 200 is located.

Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 16C, an object 1620 indicating completion of pairing with the second remote controller may be displayed on the display 180 of the image display apparatus 100. As a result, the user can easily perform pairing and confirm the pairing completion.

After the pairing is completed, as shown in FIG. 16D, the pen touch main screen 1530 may be displayed. At this time, the paired remote control device item 1539 may be displayed focusing.

17A to 17D are similar to FIGS. 15A to 15D, except that pairing is performed for a plurality of remote controllers.

When the home key 540a of the first remote control device 200a or the home key 540b of the second remote control device 200b is operated, the first remote control device 200a or the second remote control device ( 200b may transmit a pairing request signal.

Can transmit

By the pairing response signal, the first remote control apparatus 200a and the second remote control apparatus 200b may complete pairing. In this case, it is preferable that different frequency bands are allocated to each of the remote control devices 200a and 200b. As a result, the user can easily perform pairing and confirm the pairing completion.

After the pairing is completed, as shown in FIG. 17D, the pen touch main screen 1530 may be displayed. At this time, the paired remote control device items 1537 and 1539 may be displayed focusing.

Meanwhile, the pointing signal processing apparatus 400 may not perform the pairing operation described above when the pointing signal receiving apparatus 300 is not connected.
