- a digital video signal H having a screen rate of 60 Hz is input to the image display device 10 from the outside via the input terminal 10a.
- the video signal H is input to the interpolation unit 11 via the input terminal 10a.
- Interpolator 1 1 converts the screen rate of the 60 Hz video signal to 120 Hz, which is twice the screen rate.
- the interpolation unit 11 generates a screen that is not enough to double the screen rate by performing interpolation processing from the front and rear screens. Any interpolation method can be used. By up-converting the rate in this way, it is possible to eliminate blurring such as a double image that occurs when a moving object is tracked and viewed.
- the video signal whose screen rate has been converted to 120 Hz by the interpolation unit 11 is supplied to the overdrive unit 12.
- the overdrive unit 12 corrects the level of the optimum drive signal in accordance with the response characteristics of the liquid crystal when the input video signal has a level change. A detailed description of the specific processing contents of the overdrive unit 12 will be described later.

Improve viewing angle characteristics. The specific processing of the viewing angle improvement processing unit 13 will be described later.
- a video signal having a screen rate of 120 Hz supplied from the viewing angle improvement processing unit 13 is input to the AC conversion unit 14.
- the AC unit 14 is a circuit that converts the polarity of driving of the liquid crystal to AC. Liquid crystal molecules are oriented in the same direction, even if their polarities are 180 ° different, as long as the direction of the applied electric field vector is the same. For this reason, when driving a liquid crystal, in general, the polarity of the drive signal is inverted at regular intervals in order to achieve DC balance, and the drive signal is exchanged.
- the AC unit 14 is a circuit that converts the drive signal into AC.
- the AC conversion unit 14 performs the inversion processing of the polarity of the driving signal so that the polarity of driving of the liquid crystal is AC at 60 Hz with respect to the input 120 Hz video signal.
- the viewing angle improvement processing unit 13 inverts the polarity of the drive signal at 60 Hz in two continuous screens arranged in the time direction ( This is because the DC balance is not achieved when AC is used at 120 Hz.
- the polarity inversion frequency is not limited to 60 Hz, but if the polarity is inverted at a multiple of the period required to express one gradation.
- one gradation may be set to 120 Hz for a 240 Hz video signal.
- the source driver 15 receives a signal that has been subjected to polarity inversion processing by the AC unit 14.
- the source driver 15 applies a driving voltage to the liquid crystal display panel 16 according to the input signal, and drives the liquid crystal in units of pixels.
- the liquid crystal display panel 16 is driven by the source driver 15 to display a moving image corresponding to the input video signal on the panel.
- the liquid crystal display panel 16 is a transparent liquid crystal display according to an effective value (root mean square) applied to the liquid crystal between a plurality of fields in which the response speed of the liquid crystal is relatively slow, such as a twisted nematic mode using a nematic liquid crystal or a vertical alignment mode. This is a panel using liquid crystal with an excessive response and an effective response.
- an effective value root mean square
- each screen of the video signal after the screen display rate is up-converted to 120Hz is called a field.
- it is not related to the field of force jump scanning called field.
- the viewing angle improvement processing unit 13 includes a first field-gamma conversion unit 21, a second field-gamma conversion unit 22, and a switching output unit 23.
- the 120 Hz video signal H output from the overdrive unit 12 is input to each of the first field-gamma conversion unit 21 and the second field-gamma conversion unit 22.
- the first feedback-gamma converter 21 corrects the level of the input video signal to the plus side.
- the second field-gamma converter 22 corrects the level of the input video signal to the minus side.
- the field with the level correction on the plus side is called the “first field”, and the field with the level correction on the minus side is called the “second field”.
- the switching output unit 23 alternately selects the video signal output from the first field gamma conversion unit 21 and the video signal output from the second field level conversion unit 21 for each field, that is, at 120 Hz. And output.
- the viewing angle improvement processing unit 13 outputs a video signal in which a field whose level is corrected on the plus side (first field) and a field whose level is corrected on the minus side are alternately repeated.
- the level of the video signal (input video signal) input at 60 Hz is calculated.
- the first and second fields are level-converted so that the same video signal is obtained.
- the reference voltage pattern input to the source driver of the liquid crystal display panel may be switched for each field.
- the reference voltage refers to a liquid crystal applied voltage selected for input data to the source driver.
- the signal is input without correction to the source driver, and the liquid crystal applied voltage corresponding to the signal level is switched for each field.
- the field corrected to the positive side (first field) and the field corrected to the negative side (second field) alternately. When displayed, the displayed image is recognized as an image of the average value.
- the user who has viewed the video displayed on the liquid crystal display panel 16 is pseudo-seeing the video signal represented by the average level of the first field and the second field. For this reason, even if the level conversion is performed by the first field-to-gamma conversion unit 21 and the second field-gamma conversion unit 22, the user sees the same screen that displays the input video signal of 60 Hz. It will be recognized that.
- the upper half of the screen is displayed with a gradation of transmittance of E force S50%.
- the lower half of the screen is the area that is displayed in the gradation of E transmittance S100% transmittance
- the first field is an image whose entire surface is displayed with a gradation of 100% transmittance.
- the second field is an image in which the upper half area of the screen is displayed with a gradation of 0% transmittance and the lower half area of the screen is displayed with a gradation of 100% transmittance.
- the transmittance in the upper half region is simulated to be a transmittance (50%) that is a combination of 0% and 100%. Can be displayed as an image.
- the transmittance corresponds to the effective value of the voltage sampled and held in each field, but the above description has been made to express the principle easily.
- the expression shown in Fig. 3 appears to switch the applied voltage to all the pixels in the field at the same time.
- the actual driving timing of the liquid crystal by the source driver 15 is a so-called line-sequential driving in which the driving timing shifts according to the vertical position.
- the actual liquid crystal drive timing of a vertical pixel row w on the screen W1 represented as shown in FIG. 4 is not simultaneous at all vertical positions.
- the positive side can be changed by changing the vertical pixel position to be alternately selected. It is possible to set an arbitrary ratio between the time width of the field whose level is corrected and the field whose level is corrected on the minus side, which is not equal.
- the viewing angle characteristics can be changed. For example, the effect of improving the viewing angle of low gradation can be improved by making the time width of the field whose level is corrected on the positive side shorter than the time width of the field whose level is corrected on the negative side.
- Figure 6 shows the relationship between the applied voltage applied to the first field with respect to the gradation of the input video signal (in 8-bit notation) and the gradation of the input video signal (in 8-bit notation). It is a figure which shows the curve B which shows the relationship of the applied voltage applied to the 2nd field.
- the first field-gamma converter 21 calculates the applied voltage according to the curve A shown in FIG. 6 and generates a signal corresponding to the calculated applied voltage.
- the second field level converter 21 calculates the applied voltage according to the curve B shown in FIG. 6, and generates a signal corresponding to the calculated applied voltage.
- the liquid crystal display panel 16 can input an applied voltage (absolute value) of 0 to 4 volts.
- the liquid crystal display panel 16 is 100% transparent (white display) when 4 volts is applied.
- the liquid crystal display panel 16 has its density (transmittance) decreasing as the applied voltage is lowered from 4 volts, and the density becomes 0% transmission (black display) at 1.5 volts.
- the range of applied voltage up to 0 volt force and 1.5 volt is a so-called insensitive area, and 0% transmission (black display) is applied no matter what voltage is applied.
- the curve A shown in Fig. 6 shows that the applied voltage is monotonous when the gradation of the input video signal is 0 (8 bits) ⁇ 166 (8 bits).
- the applied voltage is fixed at the maximum value (4 volts) between 166 (8 bits) ⁇ 255 (8 bits).
- Curve B shown in Fig. 6 shows that the applied voltage does not change when the gradation of the input video signal is 0 (8 bits) ⁇ 166 (8 bits).
