[0038] The following describes in detail the specific implementation methods, features and effects of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the module structure of the LED backlight control system in an embodiment of the present application, showing the connection relationship between the video decoding module 1, the backlight partition control unit 2, the prediction compensation module 3, the photoelectric sensing array 4 and the collaborative dimming controller 5.

[0041] This application provides an LED backlight control and management system that dynamically analyzes video content characteristics, ambient light conditions, and device signal source type to adjust backlight partition structure and brightness output in real time to optimize display quality and reduce energy consumption. This system excels in handling sudden changes in high dynamic range content and adapts to the nonlinear brightness requirements of streaming media, providing users with a superior visual experience.

[0042] The control and management system includes: a video decoding module 1, a backlight partition control unit 2, a prediction compensation module 3, a photoelectric sensor array 4 and a collaborative dimming controller 5, and the modules are connected to each other via a high-speed data bus.

[0043] The video decoding module 1 is deployed at the back end of the video signal processing link and has a built-in YCrCb three-channel histogram analyzer to count the brightness distribution entropy and color gamut coverage of each frame image.

[0044] Specifically, the video decoding module 1 first decomposes the input video signal into luminance component (Y) and chrominance components (Cr, Cb), and calculates the histogram distribution of each component respectively; the luminance distribution entropy value is calculated based on the histogram distribution to evaluate the image complexity; the data packet describing the image features is generated in combination with the color gamut coverage information, and transmitted to the backlight partition control unit 2; the video decoding module 1 is connected to the backlight partition control unit 2 via a high-speed data bus to ensure the real-time data transmission.

[0045] The backlight partition control unit 2 receives the image feature data from the video decoding module 1 and dynamically adjusts the backlight partition topology according to the image features.

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the partition adjustment of the backlight partition control unit 2 in an embodiment of the present application, showing the dynamic topological structure adjustment process of dividing the high entropy area into 3×3 sub-partitions and merging the low entropy areas into super partitions.

[0047] Specifically, for high-entropy regions, backlight zone control unit 2 divides them into 3×3 sub-regions, each of which independently controls brightness output. For low-entropy regions, they are merged into super-regions, which uniformly adjust brightness output. During the zone adjustment process, backlight zone control unit 2 implements brightness control via a PWM signal drive circuit, ensuring smooth and flicker-free zone brightness changes. High-entropy regions are divided into 3×3 sub-regions, while low-entropy regions are merged into super-regions. Backlight zone control unit 2 is connected to prediction and compensation module 3 via a high-speed data bus, transmitting zone adjustment information to prediction and compensation module 3.

[0048] The prediction and compensation module 3 adopts a temporal convolutional network model to predict the brightness change trend of the next five frames based on the historical frame brightness data, and converts the prediction results into feedforward compensation coefficients.

[0049] Specifically, the prediction and compensation module 3 first collects historical frame brightness data to construct a time series dataset. It then trains this dataset using a temporal convolutional network model to generate a brightness trend prediction model. Finally, based on the prediction results, it calculates a feedforward compensation coefficient and injects it into the current backlight drive signal. The prediction and compensation module 3 is connected to the collaborative dimming controller 5 via a high-speed data bus, transmitting the feedforward compensation coefficient to the collaborative dimming controller 5.

[0050] The photoelectric sensing array 4 is embedded inside the glass substrate 6 on the display screen surface, and a plurality of micro photodiodes 7 are arranged in a regular grid form for real-time monitoring of the ambient light reflection characteristics.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the installation position and signal processing flow of the photoelectric sensing array 4 in the embodiment of the present application, showing the regular grid arrangement of the micro photodiodes 7 on the inner side of the glass substrate 6 and their connection relationship with the signal processing unit 8.

[0052] Specifically, the photoelectric sensing array 4 processes regular grid-like grooves on the inner side of the glass substrate 6, fixes the micro-photodiode 7 in the groove, and connects it to the signal processing unit 8 via a flexible circuit board. The micro-photodiode 7 receives the ambient light reflection signal, converts it into an electrical signal, and transmits it to the signal processing unit 8; the signal processing unit 8 filters and amplifies the received electrical signal, and ultimately generates a data packet describing the ambient light reflection characteristics. The photoelectric sensing array 4 is connected to the collaborative dimming controller 5 via a high-speed data bus, and transmits the ambient light reflection characteristic data to the collaborative dimming controller 5.

[0053] The collaborative dimming controller 5 communicates with the external playback device through the HDMI-CEC protocol, obtains the device type information and loads the corresponding dimming strategy library.

[0054] like Figure 4 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the workflow of the collaborative dimming controller 5 in an embodiment of the present application obtaining device type information through the HDMI-CEC protocol and loading the dimming strategy library.

[0055] Specifically, the collaborative dimming controller 5 first sends a device query command via the HDMI interface 9. Secondly, it receives the type information returned by the playback device. Finally, based on the device type information, it loads the corresponding dimming strategy library. The dimming strategy library contains brightness adjustment parameters for different types of playback devices, ensuring that the backlight output matches the characteristics of the source content. The collaborative dimming controller 5 connects to other modules via a high-speed data bus, comprehensively processing the data from each module to generate the final backlight drive signal.

[0056] The connection and positional relationships between the above modules ensure the real-time and accuracy of information transmission, thereby ensuring the efficient operation of the system. The video decoding module 1 is located at the back end of the video signal processing link, responsible for parsing the input video signal and extracting image feature data; the backlight partition control unit 2 is immediately connected to the video decoding module 1, and dynamically adjusts the backlight partition topology according to the image feature data; the prediction compensation module 3 receives the partition adjustment information of the backlight partition control unit 2, and generates a feedforward compensation coefficient through a time convolution network; the photoelectric sensor array 4 is embedded on the inner side of the glass substrate 6 on the surface of the display screen to monitor the ambient light reflection characteristics in real time; the collaborative dimming controller 5 communicates with the external playback device through the HDMI interface 9, obtains the device type information and loads the dimming strategy library.

[0057] Through the above system, this application solves the problem that the existing LED backlight control relies on a fixed brightness mapping table, significantly improves the HDR scene switching response speed, enhances the dark field grayscale recognition, and reduces the instantaneous peak power consumption of the backlight. Specifically, the dynamic backlight partition reconstruction mechanism can flexibly adjust the partition structure according to the complexity of the image, avoiding the brightness unevenness problem caused by fixed partitions; the brightness prediction compensation algorithm adjusts the backlight output in advance through feedforward control, effectively reducing dark field smearing and highlight overexposure; the ambient light transmittance calibration mechanism dynamically corrects the backlight output gain by real-time monitoring of the ambient light reflection characteristics, ensuring that the display effect remains consistent under different ambient light conditions; the cross-domain collaborative control mechanism achieves precise adaptation to different types of playback devices by loading a differentiated dimming strategy library, meeting the nonlinear brightness requirements of streaming media content.

[0058] Example 2

[0059] This application provides a practical application scenario based on the control and management system of the above-mentioned LED backlight source, the specific contents of which are as follows:

[0060] In actual application scenarios, when a user plays an HDR video, the video decoding module 1 parses the input video signal, extracts the brightness distribution entropy and color gamut coverage of each frame, and transmits the data packet to the backlight partition control unit 2. The backlight partition control unit 2 dynamically adjusts the backlight partition topology based on the image feature data, splitting high-entropy areas into 3×3 sub-partitions and merging low-entropy areas into super-partitions. This partition adjustment information is then passed to the prediction and compensation module 3, which uses a temporal convolutional network to predict the brightness trend over the next five frames and generates feedforward compensation coefficients to be injected into the current backlight drive signal. Simultaneously, the photoelectric sensor array 4 measures the reflectivity of ambient light at multiple points on the glass substrate 6 in real time and transmits this ambient light reflection characteristic data to the collaborative dimming controller 5. The collaborative dimming controller 5 obtains the playback device type information via the HDMI-CEC protocol, loads a library of differentiated dimming strategies, and generates the final backlight drive signal. This entire process uses a high-speed data bus to transmit information between modules, ensuring real-time and efficient system operation.

[0061] The above embodiment describes in detail the components, connections, location relationships, and operating principles and processes of the LED backlight control system. Each module is interconnected via a high-speed data bus, ensuring real-time and accurate information transmission. The system dynamically analyzes video content characteristics, ambient light conditions, and device signal source type to adjust the backlight partition structure and brightness output in real time, optimizing display quality and reducing energy consumption.

[0062] Example 3

[0063] In order to enable relevant personnel in this technical field to fully understand and implement the present invention, the implementation principle of the present invention is supplemented below with reference to specific application scenarios.

[0064] like Figure 5 As shown, the present application also provides a control and management method for an LED backlight source, which is applied to the above-mentioned LED backlight source control and management system, and includes the following steps:

[0065] The video decoding module 1 analyzes the input video signal and extracts the brightness distribution entropy and color gamut coverage of each frame image;

[0066] The backlight partition control unit 2 dynamically adjusts the backlight partition structure according to the image brightness distribution entropy value, implements 3×3 sub-partition fission on the high entropy area, and merges the low entropy area into a super partition;

[0067] The prediction and compensation module 3 uses a temporal convolutional network to predict the brightness change trend of the next five frames and generates a feedforward compensation coefficient to be injected into the current backlight drive signal;

[0068] The photoelectric sensor array 4 measures the reflectivity of the ambient light at multiple points on the glass substrate 6 in real time, and dynamically corrects the backlight output gain;

[0069] The playback device type information is obtained through the collaborative dimming controller 5, and a differentiated dimming strategy library is loaded for different signal sources such as game consoles or Blu-ray players.

[0070] In actual applications, when a user plays an HDR video through an external playback device, the video decoding module 1 first receives the input video signal and decomposes it into the luminance component (Y) and chrominance components (Cr, Cb). The YCrCb three-channel histogram analyzer built into the video decoding module 1 calculates the histogram distribution of each component separately and further calculates the luminance distribution entropy value based on the histogram distribution. The luminance distribution entropy value is used to assess the complexity of the current frame image. At the same time, it is combined with the color gamut coverage information to generate a data packet describing the image features and transmit the data packet to the backlight partition control unit 2 via a high-speed data bus. This process ensures the real-time extraction of video content features and provides basic data support for the subsequent dynamic adjustment of the backlight partition structure. After receiving the image feature data transmitted by the video decoding module 1, the backlight partition control unit 2 dynamically adjusts the backlight partition topology structure based on the high or low luminance distribution entropy value. For high-entropy areas, the backlight partition control unit 2 divides them into 3×3 sub-partitions, and each sub-partition controls the brightness output through an independent PWM signal driving circuit, thereby achieving refined brightness adjustment; for low-entropy areas, the backlight partition control unit 2 merges them into super partitions and uniformly adjusts the brightness output to reduce energy consumption.

[0071] like Figure 2 As shown, high-entropy regions are subdivided into 3×3 subregions, while low-entropy regions are merged into larger superregions. After the regions are adjusted, the backlight region control unit 2 transmits the adjusted region information to the prediction and compensation module 3 via a high-speed data bus for further optimization of the backlight drive signal. The prediction and compensation module 3 analyzes historical frame brightness data based on a temporal convolutional network model, constructs a time series dataset, and uses this dataset to train a brightness trend prediction model. Using the model to predict the brightness trend for the next five frames, the prediction and compensation module 3 generates feedforward compensation coefficients and injects them into the current backlight drive signal. This process effectively reduces dark field smearing and highlight overexposure caused by sudden brightness changes by adjusting the backlight output in advance. The prediction and compensation module 3 ultimately transmits the feedforward compensation coefficients to the collaborative dimming controller 5 via a high-speed data bus to generate the final backlight drive signal. Meanwhile, the photoelectric sensor array 4 is embedded inside the glass substrate 6 of the display surface. Its microphotodiodes 7 are arranged in a regular grid to monitor the ambient light reflectance characteristics in real time.

[0072] like Figure 3As shown, the micro photodiode 7 is fixed in a regular grid-shaped groove processed on the inner side of the glass substrate 6, and is connected to the signal processing unit 8 through a flexible circuit board. After receiving the ambient light reflection signal, the micro photodiode 7 converts it into an electrical signal and transmits it to the signal processing unit 8. The signal processing unit 8 filters and amplifies the received electrical signal, generates a data packet describing the ambient light reflection characteristics, and transmits the data packet to the collaborative dimming controller 5 through a high-speed data bus. This process realizes the dynamic perception of ambient light conditions and provides a basis for subsequent correction of the backlight output gain. The collaborative dimming controller 5 communicates with the external playback device through the HDMI-CEC protocol, obtains the playback device type information and loads the corresponding dimming strategy library.

[0073] like Figure 4 As shown, the collaborative dimming controller 5 first sends a device query command through the HDMI interface 9. After receiving the type information returned by the playback device, it loads the differentiated dimming strategy library. The dimming strategy library contains brightness adjustment parameters for different types of playback devices, ensuring that the backlight output matches the characteristics of the source content. The collaborative dimming controller 5 comprehensively processes the data from the prediction compensation module 3 and the photoelectric sensor array 4 to generate the final backlight drive signal, and realizes the output control of the backlight brightness through the PWM signal drive circuit.

[0074] Through the above steps, the system realizes dynamic analysis of video content features, flexible adjustment of backlight partition structure and real-time adaptation of ambient light conditions. For example, when playing HDR video, the 3×3 sub-partition fission mechanism in the high entropy area can significantly improve the accuracy of local brightness adjustment and avoid the brightness unevenness problem caused by traditional fixed partitions; the super partition merging mechanism in the low entropy area effectively reduces energy consumption. In addition, the temporal convolutional network model of the prediction and compensation module 3 adjusts the backlight output in advance by predicting the brightness change trend of future frames, reducing the impact of brightness mutation on visual effects. The ambient light reflection characteristic monitoring function of the photoelectric sensor array 4 combined with the differentiated dimming strategy library of the collaborative dimming controller 5 ensures the consistency of the display effect under different ambient light conditions.

[0075] In summary, the present invention achieves precise control of the LED backlight source through the coordinated operation of the video decoding module 1, the backlight partition control unit 2, the prediction compensation module 3, the photoelectric sensor array 4, and the collaborative dimming controller 5. The high-speed data bus interconnection between the modules ensures the real-time and accurate transmission of information, thereby significantly improving the HDR scene switching response speed, enhancing the dark field grayscale recognition, and reducing the instantaneous peak power consumption of the backlight.
