Abstract

OLED has good efficiency of power consumption by having no power consumption from black color as different with LCD. when it has white color, all RGB pixel should be glowing with high power consumption and that can make it has short life time. This paper suggest the way of low power consumption for OLED panel using adaptive luminance enhancement with color compensation and implement it as hardware. This way which is based on luminance information of input image makes converted luminance value from each pixel in real time. There is with using the basic idea of chromaticity reduction algorithm, showing new algorithm of color correction. And performance of proposed method was confirmed by comparing the conventional method in experiments about 48.43% current reduction. The proposed method was designed by Verilog HDL and was verified by using OpenCV and Windows Program.

OLED(Organic Light-Emitting Diode)는 LCD와 달리 자체발광 특성 때문에 흰색을 표현할 때에는 R,G,B 소자가 모두 발광하여야 하므로 전력소비가 상대적으로 커지게 되는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문은 OLED 패널을 사용한 기기의 저전력 디스플레이 방법 및 하드웨어 구현에 관한 것이다. 입력 이미지의 휘도 정보를 기반으로 하여 실시간으로 화소 별 휘도 변환 값을 생성하여 적응적 휘도 조절 방법과 색도 축소 알고리즘의 기본 개념을 사용하여 새로운 색상보정 알고리즘을 사용하여 OLED 패널의 저전력 디스플레이 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 방법과 비교함으로써 제안한 방법의 성능을 확인한 결과 최대 48.43%의 전류 감소를 확인하였다. 최종적으로 제안된 알고리즘은 Verilog HDL로 하드웨어를 구현하였으며, OpenCV와 Window 프로그램을 사용하여 소프트웨어적으로 알고리즘을 검증하였다.
