Detailed description will be given below through specific embodiments.

Please refer to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic flowchart of a compensation method of a IR Drop of a display panel according to the disclosure, including:

• • S100, constructing a IR Drop model of the display panel based on a distribution of equivalent resistances between adjacent pixels in the display panel;
  • S200, constructing a vector matrix equation of the IR Drop according to the IR Drop model;

  • S400, iteratively solving IR Drop data of each node in each equivalent sub-matrix; and
  • S500, performing a voltage compensation on each node in each equivalent sub-matrix according to the IR Drop data.

Please refer to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a specific schematic flowchart of S100 in FIG. 1. In an embodiment of the disclosure, executing S100 means that constructing the IR Drop model of the display panel based on the distribution of equivalent resistances between adjacent pixels in the display panel. Specifically, S100 may include following operations:

• • S110, calculating the equivalent resistance between adjacent pixels in the display panel; and
  • S120, constructing the IR Drop model of the display panel according to all of the equivalent resistances.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, executing S110 means that calculating the equivalent resistance between adjacent pixels in the display panel. Specifically, the equivalent resistance between adjacent pixels in the display panel may characterize a sheet resistance of a power supply metal wire between two adjacent pixels. A resistance value of the equivalent resistance is a function of a length, width, height and resistivity of the power supply metal wire. In this embodiment, the equivalent resistance between adjacent pixels may be divided into two directions: horizontal and vertical resistances, which means an equivalent resistance of a horizontal power supply metal wire and an equivalent resistance of a vertical power supply metal wire. An equivalent resistance R_TD of the horizontal power supply metal wire may satisfy the following formula:

$R_{TD}=\rho \times \frac{l_{MD}}{h_{TD}{w}_{TD}}$

The equivalent resistance R_MD of the vertical power supply metal wire may satisfy the following formula:

$R_{MD}=\rho \times \frac{l_{TD}}{h_{MD}{w}_{MD}}$

Wherein, l_TD represents a length of the horizontal power supply metal wire, h_TD represents a height of the horizontal power supply metal wire, w_TD represents a wire width of the horizontal power supply metal wire, l_MD represents a length of the vertical power supply metal wire, h_MD represents a height of the vertical power supply metal wire, w_MD represents a wire width of the vertical power supply metal wire, p represents a resistivity of horizontal and vertical power supply metal wires.

Furthermore, the power supply metal wires that connect the display panel to a working voltage (VDD) adopt same specifications. It may be seen that due to different lengths of the power supply metal wires in different directions, resistance values of the horizontal and vertical power supply metal wires will also be different. In this embodiment, the equivalent resistance R_TD of the horizontal power supply metal wire of the adjacent pixels in the display panel may be simplified as:

$R_{TD}=R_{VDD}\times \frac{l_{MD}}{l_{TD}}$

The equivalent resistance R_MD of the vertical power supply metal wire of the adjacent pixels in the display panel may be simplified as:

$R_{MD}=R_{VDD}\times \frac{l_{TD}}{l_{MD}}$

Wherein, R_VDD represents the resistance value of the power supply metal wire between two adjacent pixels. In this embodiment, the resistance value R_VDD of the metal power wire used for the working voltage may be 0.50, the length l_TD of the horizontal power metal wire may be set to 132.03 mm, and the length l_MD of the vertical power metal wire may be set to 132.78 mm.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, executing S120 means that constructing the IR Drop model of the display panel according to all of the equivalent resistances. Specifically, a resolution of the display panel may be set to be M×N, which means that the display panel has M columns of pixels in a horizontal direction and N rows of pixels in a vertical direction. According to the equivalent resistance between all adjacent pixels calculated in S110, the IR Drop model of the display panel is constructed. In this embodiment, the IR Drop model may be a resistive static IR Drop analysis network including P×Q nodes. Wherein, P represents a total number of horizontal nodes in the IR Drop model, and P is equal to a lateral resolution of the display panel, which means that P=M. Q represents a total number of longitudinal nodes in a IR Drop model, and Q is equal to a longitudinal resolution of the display panel, which means that Q=N.

Further, a typical pixel circuit consists of two TFTs (Thin Film Transistor) and a capacitor, wherein, a driving thin film transistor (DTFT) controls a driving current passing through the OLED under a given lighting level by changing a gate voltage. Therefore, an electronic component in pixels of the OLED display panel may be simplified as a current source driven by DTFT, which means that a current-driven OLED display panel may be equivalently expressed as the current source in the above IR Drop model, then a total number of load current sources is P×Q. The voltage source is horizontally connected with the display panel, and a total number of voltage sources must be greater than 1.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, executing S200 means constructing the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop according to the IR Drop model. Specifically, the IR Drop model includes P×Q nodes, therefore, the IR Drop vector matrix is a P×Q matrix. In this embodiment, the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop of the display panel may satisfy the following formula:

$Gv=1$

• • wherein, G represents a conductance matrix, ν represents a vector matrix consisting of node voltages, and I represents a vector matrix containing a current. It may be seen that the conductance matrix includes P×Q nodes.

Please refer to FIG. 3. FIG. 3 is a schematic flowchart of an equivalent processing according to an embodiment of the disclosure. In an embodiment of the disclosure, executing S300 means performing the equivalent processing on the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop to form the plurality of equivalent sub-matrices. Specifically, the conductance matrix G in the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop is equivalently processed along a power supply direction of the voltage source to form the plurality of equivalent sub-matrices G_i. For example, a number of equivalent sub-matrices G_i may be L, where L is an integer and L≥1. Therefore, for an i-th equivalent sub-matrix G_i (i=1, . . . , L), a total number of horizontal nodes it contains is P/L, and a total number of longitudinal nodes it contains is Q. Nodes in the i-th equivalent sub-matrix G_i may be expressed as (x_i, y_i), wherein, x_i=1, . . . , P/L; y_i=1, . . . , Q.

In this embodiment, for the node (x_i, y_i) in the i-th equivalent sub-matrix G_i, a transverse conductance g_TD between it and an adjacent node may satisfy the following formula:

$g_{TD}=\frac{-1}{R_{TD}+R_{EL}}$

For the node (x_i, y_i) in the i-th equivalent sub-matrix G_i, a vertical conductance g_TD between it and an adjacent node may satisfy the following formula:

$g_{MD}=\frac{-1}{R_{MD}+R_{EL}}$

Therefore, a total conductance value g of this node (xi, yi) may be expressed as:

$g=\frac{2}{R_{TD}+R_{EL}}+\frac{2}{R_{MD}+R_{EL}}$

Wherein, R_EL represents an equivalent resistance of the pixel in each node. The equivalent resistance R_EL of the pixel may be set to 4.19×10{circumflex over ( )}6Ω.

In this embodiment, a total current value I_{(xi, yi)} passing through this node (x_i, y_i) may satisfy the following formula:

$I_{\left(x_i,y_i\right)}^{k+1}=-I_{\left(x_i,y_i\right)}^k+\left(v_{\left(x_i-1,y_i\right)}^{k+1}+v_{\left(x_i+1,y_i\right)}^k\right)\times g_{MD}$

• • wherein, k represents a number of iterative solutions, v_{(xi+1, yi)} represents a node voltage of a node (x_i+1, y_i), and v_{(xi−1, yi)} represents a node voltage of a node (x_i−1, y_i).

In an embodiment of the disclosure, the resolution of the display panel may be, for example, 7680×4320, so there are a total of 7680×4320 nodes in the IR Drop model. The conductance matrix G is equivalently processed along the power supply direction of the voltage source to form L equivalent sub-matrices G_i. The equivalent sub-matrix G_i may be expressed as:

$G_i=\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}{G}_{1,1}^{\prime }& C_1& 0& \dots & 0\\ C_1& G_{2,2}& C_2& \ddots & ⋮\\ 0& C_2& \ddots & \ddots & 0\\ ⋮& \ddots & \ddots & G_{y-1,y-1}^{\prime }& C_{y-1}\\ 0& \dots & 0& C_{y-1}& G_{y,y}^{\prime }\end{array}\right]$

In this embodiment, the number L of equivalent sub-matrices may be, for example, 768. Then the total number of horizontal nodes in the i-th equivalent sub-matrix G_i(i=1, . . . , 768) is 10, and the total number of the longitudinal nodes is 4320. At this time, each node in the i-th equivalent sub-matrix G_i may be expressed as (x_i, y_i), wherein, x_i=1, . . . , 10; y_i=1, . . . , 4320. The voltage source may be a stable DC voltage source, and its voltage value U may be set to 24V. Therefore the total number of voltage sources may be 10 and the total number of load current sources may be 43200. An initial current value of the load current source may be 2.446×10⁻⁶ A.

It should be noted that the equivalent sub-matrix G_i in the above operations is of order x²×y². When the resolution of the OLED display panel is low, the order of its equivalent sub-matrix G_i is also low, and conventional algorithms may be used for calculation. When the resolution of the OLED display panel increases, the order of its equivalent sub-matrix G_i increases, and there are fewer non-zero elements in the equivalent sub-matrix G_i. If the conventional algorithm is used to solve the problem, a large number of zero elements need to be stored, and solving it will consume a lot of operation time and memory, and may even be unsolvable.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, sparse algorithm is used to store equivalent sub-matrices G_i. A sparse algorithm storage may selectively store only non-zero elements in the equivalent sub-matrix G_i. The sparse algorithm storage records rows, columns and values of the non-zero elements in a small-scale array, thereby reducing a size of the matrix and enabling it to be possible to accurately solve the IR Drop of each pixel at a high resolution. In this embodiment, when the sparse algorithm storage is used, a first column of the equivalent sub-matrix G_i may be expressed as:

$G_1=\left[\begin{array}{c}\left(1,1\right)g\\ \left(2,1\right)g_{\mathrm{TD}}\\ \left(y+1,1\right)g_{\mathrm{MD}}\\ ⋮\\ \left(y-1,n\right)g_{\mathrm{TD}}\\ \left(y,y\right)g\\ \left(2y,y\right)g_{\mathrm{MD}}\end{array}\right]$

Please refer to FIG. 4. FIG. 4 is a specific schematic flowchart of S400 in FIG. 1. In an embodiment of the disclosure, executing S400 means iteratively solving IR Drop data of each node in each equivalent sub-matrix. Specifically, S400 may include following operations:

S410, iteratively solving the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop to generate an iterative value of a node voltage and a node current of each of the nodes;

S420, when an error between two adjacent iteration values is less than a preset iteration error, recording an iteration value generated by a latest iteration as a node voltage value of each node, and calculating and generating the IR Drop data of all the nodes.

Please refer to FIG. 5. FIG. 5 is a schematic view of an iterative solution process according to an embodiment of the disclosure. In an embodiment of the disclosure, S410 to S420 are executed. Specifically, first, iterative solution is performed based on the vector matrix equation of the above IR Drop model to generate iterative values of a node voltage and a node current of each node in each equivalent sub-matrix, which means a node voltage matrix vi and node current matrix I_i of each equivalent sub-matrix. Since a conductance matrix G in a vector matrix equation Gv=I of the IR Drop model is a strictly diagonally dominant matrix, an iterative method converges for any given initial value. It may be seen that when the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop model converges iteratively, the solution v^k+1 will be closer to the solution of the original equation than the solution v^k, so v^k may be replaced with v^k+1 in time during an iterative process to obtain a more accurate node voltage value. In this embodiment, when an iteration error of two consecutive iteration values is less than a preset iteration error eps, the current iteration result may be used as a real node voltage value to perform a IR Drop analysis, which means that the iteration value generated by a latest iteration is recorded as the node voltage value of each node. In this embodiment, the iteration error eps may be set to equal to 10⁻⁵, ensuring that the node voltage value of each pixel converges to an exact solution after iteration.

Furthermore, based on the node voltage value of each node, the IR Drop of each node in the equivalent sub-matrix may be analyzed and calculated, thereby obtaining the IR Drop data of each pixel in the M×N resolution OLED display panel.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, executing S500 means performing the voltage compensation on each node in each equivalent sub-matrix according to the IR Drop data. Specifically, according to the IR Drop data of each node in the display panel obtained by solving in S400, the accurate point-to-point voltage compensation is performed for each pixel, thereby improving the problem of uneven brightness of the high-resolution OLED display panel caused by the IR Drop, which improves the display effect of the display panel.

Please refer to FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a schematic structural view of the compensation system of the IR Drop of the display panel according to the disclosure.

The equivalent resistance between the adjacent pixels in the display panel may characterize the sheet resistance of the power supply metal wire between two adjacent pixels, which includes the equivalent resistances of the horizontal power supply metal wire and the vertical power supply metal wire. Then, the IR Drop model of the display panel is constructed according to all of the equivalent resistances. The IR Drop model may be a resistive static IR Drop analysis network including P×Q nodes.

In a specific embodiment, the model construction module 100 may also be specifically used to:

• • calculating the equivalent resistance between adjacent pixels in the display panel;

In an embodiment of the disclosure, the matrix construction module 200 is used to construct the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop according to the IR Drop model. Specifically, the IR Drop model includes P×Q nodes, therefore, the IR Drop vector matrix is a P×Q matrix. In this embodiment, the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop of the display panel may satisfy the following formula:

$Gv=1$

• • wherein, G represents a conductance matrix, ν represents a vector matrix consisting of node voltages, and I represents a vector matrix containing a current.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, the equivalent processing module 300 is used for performing the equivalent processing on the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop to form the plurality of equivalent sub-matrices. Specifically, first, the conductance matrix G in the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop is equivalently processed along a power supply direction of the voltage source to form the plurality of equivalent sub-matrices G_i. Then, a total conductance value g of each node in each equivalent sub-matrix G_i and a total current value I flowing through the node are calculated. At last, the sparse algorithm is used to store equivalent sub-matrices G_i.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, the iterative solution module 400 is used for iteratively solving IR Drop data of each node in each equivalent sub-matrix. Specifically, first, iterative solution is performed based on the vector matrix equation of the above IR Drop model to generate iterative values of a node voltage and a node current of each node in each equivalent sub-matrix. When the iteration error of two consecutive iteration values is less than the preset iteration error eps, the current iteration result may be used as the real node voltage value to perform the IR Drop analysis, which means that the iteration value generated by the latest iteration is recorded as the node voltage value of each node. Based on the node voltage value of each node, the IR Drop of each node in the equivalent sub-matrix may be analyzed and calculated, thereby obtaining the IR Drop data of each pixel in the M×N resolution OLED display panel.

In a specific embodiment, the iterative solution module 400 may also be specifically used to:

• • iteratively solving the vector matrix equation of the IR Drop to generate the iterative value of the node voltage and the node current of each of the nodes;
  • when the error between two adjacent iteration values is less than the preset iteration error, recording the iteration value generated by the latest iteration as the node voltage value of each node, and calculating and generating the IR Drop data of all the nodes.

In an embodiment of the disclosure, the node compensation module 500 is used for performing the voltage compensation on each pixel in the display panel according to the IR Drop data. Specifically, according to the IR Drop data of each node in the display panel obtained by the iterative solution module 400, the accurate point-to-point voltage compensation is performed for each pixel, thereby improving the problem of uneven brightness of the high-resolution OLED display panel caused by the IR Drop, which improves the display effect of the display panel.
