Backward Spectral Characterization of Liquid Crystal Display Based on Forward Spectral Characterization
A backward spectral characterization for Liquid Crystal Display by the use of rule for the maximum peak of spectral radiation curves changing with the digital input values is proposed; this new model is developed based on forward spectral characterization. It deals with estimation ofRGBused as input to the digital display from known spectral radiation curves. We first investigate the rule for the peak of spectral radiation curves changing with the digital input values of primaries; then the initial digital inputRGBare calculated based on that rule using the known spectral radiation curvesρ0. Third,RGBare inputted into forward spectral characterization model and the corresponding spectral radiation curvesρ1are predicted. Last,RGBare modified according to the difference between predictedρ1and knownρ0, until this difference satisfied the prediction accuracy of the inverse characterization model. The inverse model has the advantage of using the same model for both forward and inverse color space transformation. This improves the accuracy of the color space transformation and reduces the source of errors. Results for 3 devices are shown and discussed; the accuracy of this model is considered sufficient for many applications.
