ABSTRACT:
When the observation point on a PDP screen moves, artifacts will be introduced which are commonly described as “dynamic false contour”. A simple way to reduce this effect requires the use of more sub-fields at the expense of panel brightness. A first idea called Bit-Line-Repeat (BLR) makes it possible to exchange vertical resolution with addressing time in order to dispose of more sub-fields for the same brightness. Nevertheless, such a solution introduces some vertical artifacts mostly during movement. Therefore, before the step of sub-field encoding a vertically filtering of the picture divided into pixel blocks is performed, wherein each block includes at least one pixel in horizontal direction and a number of pixels corresponding to the number of common lines in vertical direction. The effect of the pre-filtering step is that the difference of brightness values within each pixel block is limited to a predetermined value. In that case the BLR introduces only a slight vertical loss free from motion artifacts.
