Description

侧入式背光模组及其扫描方法 技术领域
本发明涉及液晶显示技术, 尤其涉及一种侧入式背光模组及其扫描方 法。 背景技术
随著 LED 电视快速发展, 其即将进入另一个阶段—— 3D 液晶电 视。 3D 液晶电视中, 有一种快门式 (shutter glass ) 3D 显示技术是目前 最普遍使用的技术, 其利用背光分区闪烁, 分开显示左右眼的信号, 再搭 配同步闪烁的眼镜, 即可使左右眼看到不同的影像。 快门式 3D显示技术 利用影像处理技术, 使人眼感受如同立体影像一般的视觉效果, 主要包 括: 使左、 右眼图像帧 (frame )信号交替输出至液晶面板, 驱动液晶面板 上分别形成左、 右眼图像, 配合扫描式背光模组(scanning BLU ) 的照射 加上快门眼镜 ( shutter glass ) 的时序控制, 使左、 右眼信号分别刺激左、 右眼, 从而使人感受 3D图像。
然而, 液晶 3D 显示器有一个缺点: 由于液晶面板本身不发光, 必须 利用背光当作光源, 因成本因素, 背光分区不能做的太细致。 如图 1 所 示, 其为现有侧入式 LED 背光分区点亮及漏光示意图。 侧入式 LED 背 光, 是把 LED 晶粒配置在液晶面板的四周边缘, 再搭配导光板, 让 LED 背光分区点亮时, 把从液晶面板边缘发射的光通过导光板输送到液晶面板 中央的区域去, 这样整体就有足够的背光量, 可让液晶面板显示画面。 侧 入式 LED背光的好处有两个: 其一是可使用较少颗的 LED晶粒, 节省成 本; 其二就是能够打造比较轻薄的机身, 让 LED 电视液晶面板的后方不 需要配置 LED模块, 而是放置在侧边, 可减少液晶面板整体的厚度, 机 身能很薄。
图 1 中的背光分区 11为右侧短边入光, 漏光左右非对称的原因在于 光路径愈远漏光愈严重。 当背光分区 11 点亮时, 光线会漏到其两侧的区 域 12 和 13 , 进而会造成左右眼信号互相干扰, 即左眼看到右眼的信号 (或右眼看到左眼的信号) , 使影像模糊(因为两个信号有空间错位的分 布)。 影像模糊的评定标准为串扰(Cross-talk ) , 其值愈大表示左右眼影 像干扰愈严重。 因此如何降低串扰, 同时保持产品价格竟争力, 是目前重 要课题。 现有快门式 3D 显示技术在左眼信号和右眼信号之间存在串扰现象, 是由其技术特性所决定的。 现有快门式液晶 3D显示器的背光模组是按水 平区块上下作区隔成为偶数个背光分区, 按扫描方式由上往下依序控制背 光模组的各背光分区开启及工作时间。 图像信号 (左眼信号或右眼信号) 依序由上而下给与液晶面板各列所需驱动电压, 像素在收到驱动电压充电 后, 液晶面板才开始反应, 由于像素设计及液晶的粘滞特性, 需要一段液 晶反应时间才能完全达到所需稳定态。 由于液晶反应緩慢, 图像信号在液 晶面板上釆用分区扫描的方式显示, 当扫描液晶面板上任一区图像信号 时, 对应的背光分区点亮, 其余背光分区关闭; 由于背光分区存在漏光, 因此当对应左眼信号的背光分区的漏光照射到对应右眼信号的背光分区时
(或对应右眼信号的背光分区的漏光照射到对应左眼信号的背光分区 时) , 眼中就会同时产生左眼图像与右眼图像, 产生了串扰, 我们可以将 引起串扰的右眼信号或左眼信号称为错误信号 (也可称为干扰信号) 。
如图 2A及图 2B所示, 其为现有 46寸单短边侧入式 LED电视的背光 分区点亮情形示意图。 以现有 46寸单短边侧入式 LED电视为例, 其背光 模组 20通常分成偶数个如四个背光分区进行点亮。 边缘背光分区 21点亮 后, 向中间漏光; 中间背光分区 22点亮后, 会向其两侧漏光。
如图 3 所示, 其为量测液晶显示屏上九点的串 4尤值的位置示意图。 图 3 中, 显示屏 30相邻两侧边的尺寸分别记为 H和 V, 显示屏 30上的点 1、 点 2 ^ 9按图 3中标示的相对位置分布, 点 1、 点 2 ^ 9在显 示屏上的位置即为液晶面板上的位置。 通过对现有的 46寸单短边入光、 4 背光分区扫描的 LED 电视进行测量, 点 1、 点 2 ^ 9等九个点串扰值 测量结果如下面表一所示, 串扰呈现上下非对称的特点, 上方严重, 下方 轻微; 串扰还呈现左右非对称的特点, 这是因为单短边入光的影响, 光路 径愈远, 漏光愈严重。
、 九点串扰量测值 (46寸单短边入光, 4背光分区扫描)
Figure imgf000004_0001
由表一的数据可以看出, 对于现有的 46寸单短边侧入式 LED电视来 说, 左眼信号或右眼信号在液晶面板中部的图像质量相对来说最好, 在液 晶面板上图像质量上下非对称。 表一中串扰上下非对称可以用背光分区和 液晶面板信号的时序关系做解释。 如图 4 所示, 其为现有 46 寸单短边侧 入式 LED 电视的背光分区和液晶面板信号 (液晶面板上的左眼图像信号 或右眼图像信号) 的时序关系 (左眼信号) 示意图。 背光模组由上至下顺 序分成第一背光分区 41、 第二背光分区 42、 第三背光分区 43及第四背光 分区 44 , 分别用于对应照亮液晶面板 40 的第一显示分区、 第二显示分 区、 第三显示分区及第四显示分区。 图 4 以左眼信号为例说明了通过液晶 面板 40及背光模组显示液晶面板信号时的连续步骤: 步骤 a、 第一至第三 显示分区加载当前帧左眼信号, 第四显示分区加载前一帧右眼信号, 第一 背光分区 41点亮以照亮第一显示分区, 由于第一背光分区 41 的漏光可能 照亮第四显示分区, 此时第四显示分区加载的前一帧右眼信号为与第一显 示分区加载的当前帧左眼信号串扰的错误信号, 由于第一显示分区与第四 显示分区之间相隔两个显示分区, 距离较远, 此时串扰轻微; 步骤 b、 第 四显示分区加载当前帧左眼信号, 此时整个液晶面板 40 上加载了完整的 左眼信号, 第二背光分区 42 点亮以照亮第二显示分区, 此时第二背光分 区 42的漏光不会引起左右眼信号之间的串扰, 影像品质最好; 步骤 c、 第 一显示分区加载后一帧右眼信号, 第二至第四显示分区加载当前帧左眼信 号, 第三背光分区 43 点亮以照亮第三显示分区, 此时第一显示分区加载 的后一帧右眼信号为与第三显示分区加载的当前帧左眼信号串扰的错误信 号, 由于第一显示分区与第三显示分区之间相隔一个显示分区, 距离较 近, 此时串扰严重; 步骤 d、 第一和第二显示分区加载后一帧右眼信号, 第三和第四显示分区加载当前帧左眼信号, 第四背光分区 44 点亮以照亮 第四显示分区, 此时第一和第二显示分区加载的后一帧右眼信号为与第四 显示分区加载的当前帧左眼信号串扰的错误信号, 由于第一和第二显示分 区与第四显示分区之间间隔一个显示分区, 距离较近, 此时串扰严重。 整 个 3D显示过程中, 液晶面板 40上会重复加载右眼信号 (前一帧) 、 左眼 信号 (当前帧) 、 右眼信号 (后一帧) 、 左眼信号、 右眼信号 ... ...的过 程。 由于现有的侧入式背光分区为偶数分区, 当错误信号出现时, 对上对 下的影响不同, 在这个例子中, 背光分区点亮时间较接近上方的错误信 号, 液晶面板 40上方串扰较为严重, 液晶面板 40上下串扰不对称。 若直 接将液晶面板信号调整, 使背光分区点亮在液晶面板信号的中心, 虽然可 以使液晶面板 40 上下串扰接近对称, 但因为背光分区为偶数, 会牺牲中 心位置的影像品质, 串扰变大。 发明内容
因此, 本发明的目的在于解决现有偶数分区侧入式背光模组的缺点: (1)显示屏上下串扰非对称; (2)若要使上下接近对称, 会提高中心位置的串 扰。

参见图 5其为本发明侧入式背光模组一较佳实施例的背光分区和液晶 面板信号的时序关系示意图。 该较佳实施例的侧入式背光模组包括: 分成 连续均勾排列的 3 个背光分区, 第一背光分区 51、 第二背光分区 52、 第 三背光分区 53 , 3 个背光分区可以通过控制时序来分别点亮或关闭, 用于 对应照亮液晶面板 50对应分成的 3 个显示分区, 第一显示分区、 第二显 示分区、 第三显示分区。
使用该侧入式背光模组扫描对应的液晶面板 50时, 参照现有 3D液晶 电视, 控制液晶面板信号 (包括左目艮信号和右目艮信号) 的时序, 将液晶面 板信号逐帧逐个显示分区连续加载至液晶面板上, 按照预定视觉效果控制 3 个背光分区的时序来点亮或关闭背光分区, 控制背光分区和液晶面板信 号的时序关系为当所述液晶面板上加载的液晶面板信号为完整一帧时, 位 于该侧入式背光模组中间位置的第二背光分区 52恰好点亮。 参照图 5 具 体时序说明如下: 步骤 A、 第一至第二显示分区加载当前帧左眼信号, 第 三显示分区加载前一帧右眼信号, 第一背光分区 51 点亮以照亮第一显示 分区, 由于第一背光分区 51 的漏光可能照亮第三显示分区, 此时第三显 示分区加载的前一帧右眼信号为与第一显示分区加载的当前帧左眼信号串 扰的错误信号, 此时第一显示分区与第三显示分区之间相隔一个显示分 区; 步骤 B、 第三显示分区加载当前帧左眼信号, 此时整个液晶面板 50 上加载了完整的左眼信号, 在中心位置的第二背光分区 52 点亮以照亮第 二显示分区, 此时第二背光分区 52 的漏光不会引起左右眼信号之间的串 扰, 影像品质最好, 也就是说在中心位置可以保持串扰最小; 步骤 c、 第 一显示分区加载后一帧右眼信号, 第二至第三显示分区加载当前帧左眼信 号, 第三背光分区 53 点亮以照亮第三显示分区, 此时第一显示分区加载 的后一帧右眼信号为与第三显示分区加载的当前帧左眼信号串扰的错误信 号, 此时第一显示分区与第三显示分区之间相隔一个显示分区, 与步骤 A 中的间隔相同, 也就是上下间距相同, 产生的串扰也相当。 整个 3D显示 过程中, 液晶面板 50 上会重复加载右眼信号 (前一帧) 、 左眼信号 (当 前帧) 、 右眼信号 (后一帧) 、 左眼信号、 右眼信号 ... ...的过程。 本发明 的侧入式背光模组为一个奇数分区的侧入式背光, 分成 3 区做扫描, 上下 错误信号的干扰相同, 可实现上下串扰一致, 同时维持中心串扰为最小。 该侧入式背光模组可以为图 5中的单短边入光, 也可以为双短边入光。
参见图 6, 其为本发明侧入式背光模组的扫描方法的流程图。 该方法 可基于本发明的侧入式背光模组来实施。 该侧入式背光模组的扫描方法包 括:
步骤 1、 将该侧入式背光模组顺序均匀分成 2n+l个背光分区, 其中, n为大于等于 1的自然数;
步骤 2、 将液晶面板对应分成 2n+l个显示分区, 控制液晶面板信号的 时序, 将液晶面板信号逐帧逐个显示分区连续加载至液晶面板上;
步骤 3、 按照预定视觉效果控制所述 2n+l个背光分区的时序来点亮或 关闭背光分区, 控制背光分区和液晶面板信号的时序关系为当所述液晶面 板上加载的液晶面板信号为完整一帧时, 位于该侧入式背光模组中间位置 的第 n+1个背光分区恰好点亮。
其中, 该侧入式背光模组可以为单短边入光, 也可以为双短边入光。 其中, n可以等于 1。
综上所述, 本发明的侧入式背光模组及其扫描方法解决了现有偶数分 区背光模组的缺点, 提出了在侧入式扫描背光中利用奇数分区来解决现有 偶数分区背光模组的问题。 而且由于背光占空比 ( duty ) 限制是扫描背 光设计时影响成本最重要的考量, 本发明可以降低最大串扰值 (当背光驱动 占空比 (duty ) 限制为相同时)。
以上所述, 对于本领域的普通技术人员来说, 可以根据本发明的技术 方案和技术构思作出其他各种相应的改变和变形, 而所有这些改变和变形 都应属于本发明后附的权利要求的保护范围。
