[0067] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0068] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0069] In the process of implementing the present invention, the inventors found that the following problems exist in the related art. With the development of display technology, people have higher and higher requirements for the quality of picture display. In order to improve the display effect, the related art usually uses the IR_Drop / Demura algorithm to repair the effect of the defective panel, but the display panel still has the phenomenon of uneven display, which affects the display effect of the display panel. The inventors found that the reason for the above problems is that the display panel may have a problem of inconsistency between the white brightness trend and the monochrome brightness trend after uniformity compensation. When the white and monochrome brightness trends are inconsistent, Demura compensation will affect the IR_Drop compensation result, so there is a problem of reduced brightness uniformity and deterioration of chromaticity uniformity, which reduces the display effect of the display panel.

[0070] In view of the above research findings of the inventors, an embodiment of the present invention provides a brightness compensation method for a display panel, comprising:

[0071] S110 , obtaining brightness data of a white picture of a preset gray scale and brightness data of a monochrome picture of a bounding point gray scale displayed by the display panel after voltage drop compensation.

[0072] Specifically, there is IR Drop (voltage drop) in the display panel. Specifically, due to the difference in the physical positions of different sub-pixels, the wiring resistance received by the current during the transmission process is different, which will cause the current size at different physical positions to be inconsistent, resulting in a voltage drop phenomenon. IR Drop is mainly manifested as the brightness gradient phenomenon between the far IC end and the near IC end. Among them, the far IC end can be understood as the end of the display panel that is farther away from the driver chip (IC), and the near IC end can be understood as the end of the display panel that is closer to the driver chip (IC). Therefore, in order to better improve the problem of uneven brightness display, it is necessary to compensate for the IR Drop of the display panel.

[0073] After the voltage drop compensation is performed on the display panel, the display panel is controlled to display a white picture of a preset gray scale, and the brightness data of the white picture is detected, so as to obtain the brightness data of the white picture of the preset gray scale displayed by the display panel after the voltage drop compensation. After the voltage drop compensation is performed on the display panel, the display panel is controlled to display a monochrome picture of a gray scale of a binding point, and the brightness data of the monochrome picture is detected, so as to obtain the brightness data of the monochrome picture of the gray scale of a binding point displayed by the display panel after the voltage drop compensation. In other words, on the basis of IR_Drop compensation, the monochromatic optical data required for Demura compensation is collected.

[0074] S120, performing partition processing on the brightness data of the white picture to determine the brightness change trend of the white light of the display panel after voltage drop compensation, and performing partition processing on the brightness data of the monochrome picture to determine the brightness change trend of the monochrome light of the display panel after voltage drop compensation.

[0075] Specifically, the display area of ​​the display panel is divided into a plurality of display subareas. For example, Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of a method for dividing a display area in a display panel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 15 display partitions are shown as a schematic diagram. It should be noted that the number of display partitions in the display area of ​​the display panel is not limited to 15, and can also be other numbers, such as 9, 21 or 25, etc., which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. The more display partitions there are in the display area, that is, the finer the display partition division, the better the final brightness compensation effect. However, as the number of display partitions in the display area increases, the number of target brightnesses of each partition that needs to be obtained also increases, and the amount of calculation will also increase accordingly. Therefore, the number of display partitions in the display area can be flexibly selected according to actual conditions.

[0076] The brightness data of the white screen is processed according to the display area partition method to obtain the brightness value of each display partition, so as to determine the white light brightness change trend of the display panel after voltage drop compensation. After the display panel is compensated for the voltage drop, the brightness uniformity of the white screen displayed by the display panel is improved, but due to the compensation accuracy, process instability and other reasons, there may still be some differences such as Figure 2 The white light brightness change trend is that the brightness gradually decreases along the direction X away from the driving chip 200 (IC).

[0077] Specifically, the brightness data of the monochrome picture can be partitioned by partitioning the brightness data of the white picture, so as to determine the monochrome brightness change trend of the display panel after voltage drop compensation. It should be noted that the display panel may include a first color sub-pixel that emits a first color light, a second color sub-pixel that emits a second color light, and a third color sub-pixel that emits a third color light. Correspondingly, the monochrome picture includes a first color picture, a second color picture, and a third color picture; the monochrome brightness change trend includes the first color brightness change trend of the grayscale of the binding point, the second color brightness change trend, and the third color brightness change trend. Exemplarily, the display panel may include a red sub-pixel that emits red light, a green sub-pixel that emits green light, and a blue sub-pixel that emits blue light. Correspondingly, the monochrome picture may be a red picture, a green picture, and a blue picture; the monochrome brightness change trend includes the red light brightness change trend, the green light brightness change trend, and the blue light brightness change trend of the grayscale of the binding point.

[0078] S130 , determining the monochrome target brightness of the binding point grayscale of each display partition of the display panel by comparing the white light brightness change trend and the monochrome light brightness change trend after voltage drop compensation.

[0079] Specifically, the white light brightness change trend of the white picture of the preset grayscale is compared with the brightness change trend of the monochrome picture of the binding point grayscale, and the comparison result is output to the algorithm end. Exemplarily, if the brightness change trends are the same, the output comparison result is 1, and if the brightness change trends are different, the output comparison result is 0. It can be roughly judged whether the white light brightness change trend is the same as the monochrome light brightness change trend. For example, if the white light brightness change trend is that the brightness gradually decreases in the direction away from the driver chip 200 (IC); if the monochrome light brightness change trend is also that the brightness gradually decreases in the direction away from the driver chip 200 (IC), it can be determined that the white light brightness change trend is the same as the monochrome light brightness change trend, otherwise they are different.

[0080] A preset algorithm may also be set to accurately judge the white light brightness change trend and the monochromatic light brightness change trend. For example, the white light brightness change trend is that the brightness gradually decreases in the direction away from the driver chip 200 (IC); if the monochromatic light brightness change trend is that the brightness gradually decreases in the direction away from the driver chip (IC), and the difference in white light brightness between two adjacent display partitions and the difference in monochromatic light brightness are within the same preset interval, then it is determined that the white light brightness change trend is the same as the monochromatic light brightness change trend, otherwise they are different. The judgment conditions for the white light brightness change trend and the monochromatic light brightness change trend can be determined according to actual needs. The method of determining the monochromatic target brightness when the brightness change trends of white light and monochromatic light are the same is different from the method of determining the monochromatic target brightness when the brightness change trends of white light and monochromatic light are different.

[0081] S140 , performing brightness compensation on sub-pixels of corresponding colors in each display partition according to the monochrome target brightness of the binding point grayscale of each display partition.

[0082] Specifically, by determining the monochrome target brightness of a binding point grayscale of each display partition, the target brightness of the corresponding color sub-pixel in each display partition when displaying the binding point grayscale can be determined. The monochrome target brightness of some or all binding point grayscales can be determined, and the monochrome target brightness of non-binding point grayscales can be obtained by a difference algorithm, so that the monochrome target brightness corresponding to each grayscale can be determined. The brightness data of each monochrome picture of the display panel when displaying the binding point grayscale is obtained, and the brightness data of each monochrome picture is partitioned to determine the brightness change trend of each monochrome picture of the display panel when displaying the binding point grayscale after voltage drop compensation; by comparing the brightness change trend of white light and each monochromatic light, the target brightness of the binding point grayscale of each color sub-pixel in each display partition of the display panel can be determined. Based on the target brightness of the sub-pixel, the data voltage of the sub-pixel is adjusted to achieve brightness compensation for the sub-pixel.

[0083] The brightness compensation method of the display panel provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes: obtaining brightness data of a white picture of a preset gray scale displayed by the display panel after voltage drop compensation and brightness data of a monochrome picture of a binding point gray scale; performing partition processing on the brightness data of the white picture to determine the white light brightness change trend of the display panel after voltage drop compensation; performing partition processing on the brightness data of the monochrome picture to determine the monochrome light brightness change trend of the display panel after voltage drop compensation; determining the monochrome target brightness of the binding point gray scale of each display partition of the display panel by comparing the white light brightness change trend with the monochrome light brightness change trend after voltage drop compensation; the embodiment of the present application determines the monochrome target brightness of the binding point gray scale of each display partition of the display panel in different ways by setting the white light brightness change trend and the monochrome light brightness change trend to be the same and different, and can perform demura compensation on the display panel in a targeted manner according to the brightness trends of white light and monochrome light, thereby improving the problem that demura compensation affects the IR_Drop compensation result when the white light brightness change trend is different from the monochrome light brightness change trend.

[0084] For ease of understanding, the specific implementation of the above steps will be described in detail below.

[0085] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 is a flow chart of step S110 in a brightness compensation method for a display panel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to Figure 3 Step S110 obtains the brightness data of the white picture with a preset gray scale and the brightness data of the monochrome picture with a gray scale of a binding point displayed by the display panel after voltage drop compensation, including:

[0086] S101 , performing voltage drop compensation on a display panel.

[0087] S102 , controlling the display panel to display a white picture of a preset gray scale, and detecting brightness data of each sub-pixel in the white picture; wherein the preset gray scale includes the maximum display gray scale of the display panel.

[0088] S103 , controlling the display panel to display a monochrome picture of a binding point grayscale, and detecting brightness data of each sub-pixel in the monochrome picture; wherein the binding point grayscale includes all binding point grayscales of the display panel.

[0089] Specifically, the greater the current flowing through the sub-pixel, the greater the brightness of the sub-pixel. Therefore, when the brightness of the white picture displayed by the display panel is greater, the greater the difference in voltage drop generated at the sub-pixels at different positions, the worse the brightness uniformity of the white picture. Therefore, when collecting the brightness data of the white picture with a preset grayscale, the preset grayscale can be a grayscale in the high grayscale range. In an embodiment of the present invention, the display panel is controlled to display a white picture with a maximum grayscale, and the brightness data of each sub-pixel in the maximum white picture is detected, which can further improve the compensation effect after Demura compensation. Among them, the maximum grayscale displayed by the display panel can be, for example, 255 grayscale. When the display panel is controlled to display a monochrome picture of a binding point grayscale, the display panel can be controlled to display a monochrome picture of each color of each binding point grayscale in turn, which can further improve the compensation effect after Demura compensation. For example, 5 grayscales of 16 grayscales, 32 grayscales, 96 grayscales, 192 grayscales and 255 grayscales can be preset as binding point grayscales.

[0090] Based on any of the above embodiments, in one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 is a flow chart of step S120 in a brightness compensation method for a display panel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to Figure 4 In step S120, the brightness data of the white picture is processed by partitioning to determine the white light brightness change trend of the display panel after voltage drop compensation, specifically including:

[0091] S201 , dividing the brightness data of the white screen of the display panel into M*N display partitions, and determining the white light brightness data of each display partition; wherein M is the number of columns of the display partition, and N is the number of rows of the display partition.

[0092] Specifically, dividing the display area of ​​the display panel into display partitions of M columns and N rows can facilitate the determination of the white light brightness change trend. The area of ​​each display partition can be set to be the same, that is, the number of sub-pixels included in each display partition is the same, which can improve the accuracy of the light brightness change trend. Figure 2 The example in FIG. 2 shows that the display panel is divided into display partitions of 3 columns and 5 rows, including display partitions 1 to 15 .

[0093] S202 , calculating the mean of the white light brightness data of each display partition using a preset mean algorithm to obtain the average white light brightness of each display partition.

[0094] Specifically, the preset average algorithm can be understood as an algorithm for calculating the average value of white light or monochromatic light emitted by the display partition.

[0095] The method for calculating the mean of white light brightness data of a display partition may include: summing the brightness data of each sub-pixel in the display partition to obtain a brightness sum; and then obtaining the average white light brightness of the display partition based on the ratio of the brightness sum to the total number of sub-pixels in the display partition.

[0096] Optionally, the white light brightness data of each display partition is averaged by a preset average algorithm to obtain the average white light brightness of each display partition. It can also include: calculating the white light brightness data of each display partition according to a step-by-step progressive average algorithm to obtain the average white light brightness of each display partition.

[0097] Specifically, each display partition is further divided step by step according to the preset division method, wherein the number of division levels can be set according to actual needs, and the division methods of different levels can be the same or different; the smallest area (the last level) after the step-by-step division includes at least two white light brightness data (brightness data of two sub-pixels). For example, each display partition is further divided D times, that is, the last level is the Dth level. Then, the area divided at the last level is used as a calculation unit to complete the average brightness of each area obtained by the last level division (that is, the brightness data is summed and then divided by the number of brightness data). Then, the area divided at the D-1th level is used as a calculation unit to complete the average brightness of each area obtained by the D-1th level division; then, the area divided at the D-2th level is used as a calculation unit to complete the average brightness of each area obtained by the D-2th level division. And so on, until the average brightness of the area divided at the 1st level is calculated, the average brightness of white light of the display partition is obtained. The brightness data in the display partition is calculated in a step-by-step progressive manner, which can improve the accuracy of the data and more accurately express the brightness trend of the panel.

[0098] Take the resolution of the display panel as 1080*2400, divide the display panel into 3 columns and 5 rows of display partitions, and then perform a 3*3 sub-block progressive mean algorithm on the brightness data of each display partition in the 3 columns and 5 rows of display partitions to obtain the final brightness mean of each display partition as an example for illustration. The display area of ​​the display panel is divided into 15 display partitions, each of which includes 360*480 sub-pixels. Then continue to divide the brightness data of the 250*480 sub-pixels of each display partition into 3*3 sub-blocks, and each display partition obtains 9 sub-blocks, each of which includes 120*160 sub-pixel brightness data. The last level is the second level, and the area divided in the second level is used as the calculation unit to calculate the average value of the brightness data of 120*160 sub-pixels in each area, and 9 data are obtained, corresponding to the brightness data of 9 sub-blocks.
