Abstract

The invention discloses a method for dynamically adjusting backlight brightness based on the image content. The method can dynamically adjust a backlight and adjust the image contrast effectively. The method includes the following steps: (1) calculating the gray level histogram of an image to be used for calculating the highest degree of distortion and the largest gain coefficient of the image; (2) limiting the maximum value of the gain coefficient to reduce the influences that the display effect is weakened and a user feels uncomfortable in vision, wherein the influences are caused by sudden change of the backlight; (3) according to the ambient brightness, determining the minimum value of the current brightness of a mobile phone to determine the current maximum distortion so that the situation that the user is unable to recognize the content on a screen because the environment is too bright will not happen; (4) introducing an image similarity algorithm of a historical frame and a current frame to reduce the number of times of calculation of the gain coefficient. The method dynamically adjusts the backlight according to the display content on the screen, reduces calculation amount to the greatest extent under the condition that the effect of the calculation amount on the performance of the mobile phone is taken into consideration, compensates for the caused image distortion, and ensures that the visual experience of the user will not be affected by the design of low power consumption.

Description

A kind of method based on picture material dynamic adjustments backlight illumination
Technical field
The present invention relates to the Research on Digital Signal Processing field, particularly a kind of method based on picture material dynamic adjustments backlight illumination.
Background technology
Along with the function of smart mobile phone from strength to strength, with it and the power consumption of coming also increases progressively gradually.Be not only powerful calculated performance and abundant application program yet the user wishes to experience, lasting flying power also is the evaluation criterion of a mobile phone key, so low power dissipation design is the problem that many developers and designer must face.In the middle of whole cell phone system, the power consumption of display module has occupied 50 to 60 percent, and image shows it is the indispensable important component part of man-machine interaction.Therefore the power consumption that how to reduce display module is the mobile phone low power dissipation design most important thing.Nowadays the display screen that is widely used on the mobile phone is TFT-LCD, and the inner LED-backlit source of must adding of this class LCDs could normally show.Show according to the study, the backlight power consumption has occupied this display module power consumption more than 60 percent, so effectively reduce the key that the backlight power consumption is the mobile phone low power dissipation design.
At present, all kinds of adjusting back light source brightness that relate to reduce in the technology of power consumption, take static state setting as main, following shortcoming are arranged: (1) after reducing back light source brightness, image displaying quality descends, and has a strong impact on user's visual experience.(2) can not dynamically adjust in real time back light source brightness according to displaying contents, to such an extent as to can't obtain best reduction degree backlight, realize the balance of display effect and power consumption.(3) after reducing back light source brightness, can't carry out to displaying contents the image algorithm processing such as luminance compensation, remedy and reduce the image fault that back light source brightness causes.(4) saving energy of screen and distortion compensation algorithm with and fail well that combining environmental brightness responds adjustment, cause greatly reducing in the stronger situation sub-screen display effect of ambient brightness.The jump in brightness problem of bringing when (5) screen intensity changes brings discomfort for user's eyes.
Therefore, how in the situation that do not affect user's visual experience and can also reduce power consumption and become a research direction with very big using value.
Summary of the invention
Fundamental purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcoming of prior art with not enough, a kind of method based on picture material dynamic adjustments backlight illumination is provided, the method can guarantee still that when backlight illumination reduces greatly the picture quality that shows remains unchanged substantially, and then realizes reducing the purpose of power consumption.
Purpose of the present invention realizes by following technical scheme: a kind of method based on picture material dynamic adjustments backlight illumination may further comprise the steps:
(1) the rgb pixel value of image to be displayed being carried out grey level histogram processes;
(2) calculate the threshold values gray scale that RGB three colored pixels are overflowed by grey level histogram, the receptible image fault degree of human eye, choose wherein maximum one as gray threshold;
(3) gray threshold that obtains according to gray shade scale maximal value and the step (2) of image obtains gain coefficient a, and gain coefficient is the ratio of the two;
(4) be 1/a with display module PWM duty cycle adjustment, image pixel value all is stretched as original a doubly.
Preferably, described step (3) afterwards, the testing environment luminance brightness is determined screen lowest backlight intensity Bright Min, calculate object brightness Bright Aim=a*Bright 0, Bright wherein 0Be unchanged screen intensity, object brightness and screen lowest backlight intensity compared, if Bright Aim<Bright Min, then make a=Bright Min/ Bright 0, otherwise the value of a is constant; Then enter step (4).Introduce ambient brightness as the established standards of minimum brightness, the screen intensity that the inventive method is brought reduces can not make the user can't see screen content clearly.
Further, set a gain coefficient upper limit a Max, enter step (4) before in definite a value, first with a and a MaxCompare, if a a Max, then make a=a Max, otherwise the value of a is constant; Then enter step (4).By a is set Max, to prevent the screen intensity caused visual discomfort that suddenlys change.
Preferably, define the frame number that a counter A is used for characterizing shown image, set a threshold value A max, when A value counting is Amax, judge with the image similarity algorithm whether present image is similar to the first two field picture, if similarly just only it is counted again, if dissimilar, when showing, the next frame image just recomputates gain coefficient, and counter A zero clearing.Just liquid crystal transmitance gain coefficient a is calculated once every the Amax frame, thereby can reduce calculated amount.
Further, define a counter B, and set a threshold value Bmax, if present image and the first two field picture are dissimilar, then make it increase by 1, then again carries out image similarity detection before the next frame image shows, similar then counter A, B zero clearing count again, and dissmilarity is then still carried out similarity at the next frame image and detected, and suppose to detect the image dissmilarity continuous Bmax time, when the next frame image shows, just recomputate so gain coefficient, change brightness backlight.
The present invention compared with prior art has following advantage and beneficial effect:
1, compared with prior art, the present invention is backlight according to the screen display content dynamic adjustments, and considers in the situation of calculated amount to the mobile phone performance impact reduce calculated amount, caused image fault is compensated, guarantee that user's visual experience is not subjected to the impact of low power dissipation design.
2, the present invention introduces the comparison of image similarity, reduces the calculation times of gain coefficient a value, reduces calculated amount.When introducing image similarity, judge the image dissmilarity as node take continuous several times, select to recomputate adjustment factor backlight, increased the accuracy of image similarity algorithm, more efficient.
3, introduce prevention screen intensity Mutation Mechanism among the present invention, seamlessly transit gain coefficient a, prevented the unexpected variation of screen intensity.
