- the present invention relates to a television receiver.
- LCD Liquid Crystal Display
- motion blur in which the outline of the image is blurred and perceived. It is known that this motion blur is caused by the LCD display method itself.
- the light emission of each pixel is almost impulse-like although there is some afterglow of the phosphor.
- the charge stored by applying an electric field to the liquid crystal is held at a relatively high rate until the next electric field is applied.
- a TFT switch is provided for each dot constituting the pixel, and usually an auxiliary capacitor is provided for each pixel, so that the stored charge retention capability is extremely high. high. Therefore, light emission continues until the pixel is rewritten by applying an electric field based on the video signal of the next frame (or field). This is called a hold type display method.
- the impulse response of the image display light has a temporal spread, so that the time frequency characteristic is deteriorated, the spatial frequency characteristic is also lowered accordingly, and motion blur occurs.
- the human line of sight smoothly follows a moving object, if the light emission time is long as in the hold type, the movement of the image becomes jerky due to the time integration effect and looks unnatural.
- a method of performing pseudo impulse driving by blinking a backlight light source in a liquid crystal panel is known.
- FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining moving image blur in the hold-type display method.
- the reason why moving image blur due to line-of-sight tracking can be reduced by impulse driving is as follows. For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, when a moving object moves in the right direction in the background area, the observer's line of sight moves to the right following the moving object o.
- the moving image blur width can be obtained by time-integrating the horizontal line of the portion where the object o is displayed in the line-of-sight tracking direction.
- FIG. 9B is a diagram illustrating a moving state of the object o when the time axis is taken on the vertical axis and the pixel position on the display screen is taken on the horizontal axis.
- the period during which the liquid crystal display device is hold-driven is 1/120 seconds. This indicates a frame period when one frame is displayed in 1/120 seconds by frame interpolation of a 60 Hz image.
- a dotted line in FIG. 9B indicates line-of-sight tracking (eye tracking) with respect to the movement of the object o.
- the luminance is held for a period of 1/120 seconds. Accordingly, a region t1 in which the integrated value of luminance is the same as that of the original image (T1 indicates the region) is narrower than the region T1 having the shape of the original image, and a region t2 in which the integrated value of luminance is an intermediate value. , T3. In the region t3, the integrated value of the luminance is closer to the luminance of the background region than the region t2.
- the widths of the regions t2 and t3 are the moving image blur width.
- FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining the motion blur due to the pseudo impulse drive.
- FIG. 10A shows a state in which an object o moving in the background area moves from left to right as in FIG. 9A.
- the liquid crystal is driven by pseudo impulse driving.
- the luminance in one frame period (1/120 seconds) once becomes zero (turns off) within one frame period, so the region t4 where the integrated value of luminance is an intermediate value is narrow and the moving image blur width Becomes narrower.
- the pseudo impulse driving it is possible to reduce moving image blur by concentrating the luminance with time.
- the transition state of the liquid crystal is emphasized, and this is visually recognized as a ghost of a moving object in the image.
- the line segment is visually recognized as a tailing phenomenon in which the line segment appears to be double or triple, which causes a significant deterioration in display quality. Therefore, as a countermeasure against such a ghost, a backlight scanning method is used in which the backlight is divided into a plurality of parts and the light sources in the divided regions are blinked in synchronization with the writing of the video signal.

It is executed so that the turn-off period is longer than that of 10a to 10f.
- the other light emitting areas 10a to 10f have a light extinction period. Compared to this, by extending the light extinction period for the light emitting area 10g, normal motion blur is reduced for the other light emitting areas 10a to 10f. For a portion where blurring is strongly recognized, blurring can be reduced by further extending the turn-off period.
- This control may be performed on the light source driving unit 16 by the control CPU 15 receiving the motion area information indicating the parallel movement region.
- control may be executed for any of the parallel movement regions.
- intermittent control is performed at least in comparison with other light emitting regions in the light emitting region corresponding to the parallel movement region that is a region where the video is not likely to fail.

- the backlight 10 can individually control the LED units A to G (corresponding to the light emitting areas 10a to 10g in FIG. 4) each composed of two LED substrates.
- the LED unit is composed of seven rows of LED units in the vertical direction with respect to the 1080-line liquid crystal panel, but the arrangement configuration of the LEDs is not particularly limited as described above.
- the LED is always lit. For this reason, especially in a moving image with motion, the temporal frequency characteristic is deteriorated as described above, and the spatial frequency characteristic is also lowered accordingly, and the motion blur is easily seen due to the temporal integration effect.
- FIG. 6 is an example in which the image as shown in FIG. 6A is written on the liquid crystal panel at 120 Hz as in the example of FIG. 5, but an example in which the translation region 13T is detected as shown in FIG. 4. It is. Even when the backlight scan is operated, as shown in FIG. 6B, the LED units A to F corresponding to the light emitting areas 10a to 10f in FIG. 4 are controlled in the same manner as in FIG. . On the other hand, for the LED unit G corresponding to the light emitting region 10g in FIG. 4, the backlight ON (lighted) / OFF (lighted off) control is performed in accordance with the writing of the video signal. The LED unit G is controlled to be turned on / off at a predetermined timing based on the writing of the video signal. Thus, pseudo impulse driving is performed to reduce motion blur.

- the ON duty of the backlight is not at least 100%, it is preferable to turn off the light in a period including a temporal intermediate point in one frame period T.
- the turn-off period is the same period (time length) before and after the midpoint of one frame period. In other words, it is preferable that the temporal midpoint of the turn-off period coincides with the midpoint of one frame period T.
- the extinguishing period per frame period T is 0.5 / 120 seconds.
- the extinguishing period is set so that the extinguishing period is the same as before and after the temporal intermediate point of one frame period T. That is, the backlight is turned on for 0.25 / 120 seconds from the start of one frame period T, and then turned off for 0.5 / 120 seconds. Then, the backlight is turned on again and kept on for 0.25 / 120 seconds.
- the lighting period of the backlight per frame period of the LED unit G becomes 50% respectively.
- the video signal writing timing is performed by dividing the number of horizontal lines of the liquid crystal panel (1080 in this example) into seven and writing the first line in the target divided region (the region corresponding to the LED unit G and the light emitting region 10g). It can be timing. By such backlight scan control, it is possible to reduce the motion blur while suppressing the deterioration of the time-frequency characteristic.
- FIG. 7 is an example in which the video as shown in FIG. 7A is written on the liquid crystal panel at 120 Hz, as in the example of FIG. 6, and the translational movement region 13T is detected as shown in FIG. is there.
- intermittent control is not performed only on the light emitting region 10g as in the example of FIG. 6, but on the light emitting region 10g.
- Intermittent control is performed so that the turn-off period is longer than that of the other light emitting regions 10a to 10f. That is, when the backlight scan is operated in accordance with the detection of the parallel movement region 13T, the LED units A to F are not always lit as shown in FIG. 6B, but as shown in FIG. 7B. The LED units A to F are also intermittently lit.
- the LED units A to F are intermittently lit at ON duty 80%, while the LED unit G is intermittently lit at ON duty 50% as described above so as to have a longer extinction period. .
- the LED units A to F will be described.
- the extinguishing period per frame period T is 0.2 / 120 seconds.
- the extinguishing period is set so that the extinguishing period is the same as before and after the temporal intermediate point of one frame period T. That is, the backlight is turned on for 0.4 / 120 seconds from the start of one frame period T, and then turned off for 0.2 / 120 seconds. Then, the backlight is turned on again and kept on for 0.4 / 120 seconds.
- the LED units A to F can be controlled to be turned on / off at a predetermined timing based on the video signal writing, thereby performing pseudo impulse driving and reducing motion blur. it can.
- the backlight scan control as described in FIGS. 5 to 7 and the like changes the black insertion rate in the screen.
- the current during the lighting period of the LED unit G can be changed, or the PWM control can be performed. By doing so, it is preferable to prevent a change in luminance and suppress variation in luminance for each area. Of course, you may drive so that variation may be suppressed by both current variable and PWM control.
- the light source light emission control unit keeps the average light emission luminance value of the light emitting region at the time of executing intermittent control the same (constant) as at the time of non-execution of intermittent control, for the light emitting region corresponding to the parallel movement region.
- Control for changing the current during the lighting period and / or PWM control is performed. This change in current basically increases. Keeping the same as when intermittent control is not executed means increasing the current during the lighting period or increasing the lighting duty of PWM control so as to compensate for the average light emission luminance value that must be reduced by the extinguishing period. means.
- the frequency of PWM control here is considerably higher than the frequency of intermittent control described above.
- the current during the lighting period is changed so that the average light emission luminance value is the same when the intermittent control is executed and when it is not executed.
- the current during the lighting period in the example of FIG. 6, if the drive current value for the LED unit F is 100 mA, the lighting period for the LED unit G is 50%. If the relationship between the brightness of the LED and the drive current is approximately proportional, the current value during lighting is about 200 mA.
- the light source emission control unit is configured to turn on the light emission region to be subjected to intermittent control so that the average light emission luminance value of the light emission region at the time of intermittent control is the same as that at the time of non-execution of intermittent control. It is preferable to perform control and / or PWM control to change the current inside. If the black insertion rate for each area is not constant, a luminance difference occurs for each area. By performing such control, variation in luminance for each area can be suppressed.

- the relationship between the parallel movement area and the light emission area may be determined in advance in the liquid crystal display device 1 and stored so as to be readable by the control CPU 15.
- the boundaries between the light emitting regions may be defined in advance.
- the light emitting region corresponding to the translation region may be a light emitting region in which the translation region occupies all the regions (a light emitting region in which all the regions are occupied by the translation region). That is, when a certain light emitting area is viewed, if it is completely filled with the parallel movement area, it may be determined that it corresponds to the parallel movement area.
- the light emitting area corresponding to the parallel movement area may be a light emitting area in which the parallel movement area occupies a predetermined proportion of the area.
- intermittent control is executed only in the light emitting area in which the parallel movement area occupies a predetermined proportion of the area, or intermittent control is executed so that the turn-off period is longer than that in the other light emitting areas.
- the light emitting region corresponding to the parallel movement region may be a light emitting region including at least a part of the parallel movement region.
- intermittent control is executed only in the light emitting region including at least a part of the parallel movement region, or intermittent control is executed so that the turn-off period is longer than that in other light emitting regions.
- intermittent control or the like is performed when the size of the telop is large and a part of the telop enters the adjacent detection area. Then, the entire telop can be handled regardless of the size of the telop.
- intermittent control is executed only in the light emitting area including a part of the parallel movement area, or intermittent control is executed so that the extinguishing period is longer than in other light emitting areas.
- the parallel movement area has been described as an area detected by detecting a motion vector from an input video signal and detecting whether or not the motion vector is aligned.
- OSD On Screen Display
- the overlapping area may also be included. In that case, a case where an OSD image that translates from the OSD data or the original data may be detected from the motion vector in the same manner, or a command for translation may be specified. You can search for that command.

Abstract
Description
例えば、倍速駆動表示などのためにフレーム間を補間する場合、補間フレームとして例えば内挿画像フレームを前後する2枚の原画像のフレームなどから算出する必要があり、その補間フレームが映像によってはぼやけ等の破綻を引き起こすことがある。このような破綻した映像に対して、バックライトスキャン方式で処理を行うと、破綻が強調され動画性能が低下してしまう。無論、フレーム間補間を施さない場合にも映像処理の種類によっては破綻を引き起こすことがあり得るため、この課題はフレーム間補間を施す場合に限ったものとは言えない。
第4の技術手段は、第1~第3のいずれかの技術手段において、前記領域検出部は、前記入力映像信号の動きベクトルを検出する動きベクトル検出部を有することを特徴としたものである。
第6の技術手段は、第1~第4のいずれかの技術手段において、前記平行移動領域に対応する発光領域は、前記平行移動領域が所定割合の領域を占める発光領域とすることを特徴としたものである。
第7の技術手段は、第1~第4のいずれかの技術手段において、前記平行移動領域に対応する発光領域は、前記平行移動領域の少なくとも一部を含む発光領域とすることを特徴としたものである。
バックライト100は、シャーシ105上に、複数のLED基板101が配置されている。LED基板101は、横長矩形の短冊形状を有しており、矩形の長手方向が液晶表示装置の画面の水平方向に一致するように配置されている。
本発明では、このようなLED基板101の横方向への分割は必須ではなく、ここでは本発明に適用可能な構成例を示しているに過ぎない。
上記光源発光制御部における上記間欠制御は、検出された平行移動領域13Tに対応する発光領域10gについて、その発光領域10gのみに対して実行するか、若しくはその発光領域10gに対して他の発光領域10a~10fに比べて消灯期間が長くなるように実行する。他の発光領域10a~10fについて消灯期間があり、それに比べて発光領域10gについての消灯期間を長くすることによって、他の発光領域10a~10fについては、通常の動きぼやけを軽減し、テロップ等のぼやけが強く認識される部分については、より消灯期間を長くすることによって、ぼやけを軽減することができる。
この例では、バックライトのON dutyを50%とし、フレーム期間Tを1/120秒(120Hz)で制御するものとする。
