BACKGROUND

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention generally relates to touch detection methods, and more particularly to a method for detecting touch position that can obtain quite accurate coordinates of one or more touching points.

2. Description of Prior Art

Nowadays, touch panels have been increasingly widely used in electronic devices for inputting information, such as control commands. A user may input commands for writing letters, scrolling windows and virtual keys, only by an object (such as one's finger, a touch pen, etc.) touching or sliding on a touch panel to caught a relative shift or an absolute coordinates shift of a cursor. For example, a capacitive touch panel can be used by a user moving his/her finger(s) on the smooth panel, so as to control a shift of the cursor. When the user's finger touches the panel, energies in a first sensing direction and a second sensing direction of a touching point may be changed. The obtained energies can be used for determining if the capacitive touch panel is touched by an object and for calculating the position coordinates of the touching point. In addition, the capacitive touch panel is so thin that it can be configured in a super-thin notebook, keypad, digital player and another electronic device. The capacitive touch panel is easy to maintain due to its non-mechanical design, thus, the capacitive touch panel is popular and widely used.

Besides, there are also many other touch detection methods for single-touch panels and multi-touch panels. However, the output coordinates of a touching point of the present methods for detecting touch position may be not accurate enough to meet the users' requirement of high touch detection accuracy. Therefore, there is room for improvement within the art of the method for detecting touch position.

The signals on P_A and P_D respectively having energies S_A and S_D both below the preset threshold 201 are described as second signals. The first signals and the second signals corresponding to energies S_A, S_B, S_C and S_D together form a signal group. The X-coordinate of the first touching point can be calculated by an expression (2.1): (S_A×P_A+S_B×P_B+S_C×P_C+S_D×P_D)/(S_A+S_B+S_C+S_D).

When calculate Y-coordinate of the first touching point using the group 22, energies S_a and S_c of the signals on P_a and P_c at both sides of P_b are taken as weights for calculation. The signals on P_a and P_c respectively having energies S_a and S_c both below the preset threshold 203 are described as second signals. The first signals and the second signals corresponding to energies S_a, S_b and S_c together form a signal group. The Y-coordinate of the first touching point can be calculated by an expression (2.2): (S_a×P_a+S_b×P_b+S_c×P_c)/(S_a+S_b+S_c). According to the expression (2.2), in sensing direction Y, the weights of energies S_a, S_b, S_c of the first signal and the second signals are associated with the positions P_a, P_b and P_c of the sensing points of the first signal and the second signals, and the positions P_a, P_b and P_c of the sensing points of the first signal and the second signals are sorted in a descending order or an ascending order according to the precedence of the positions of the sensing points where the first signals and the second signals being detected.

The signals on P_e and P_h respectively having energies S_e and S_h both below the preset threshold 203 are described as second signals. The first signals and the second signals corresponding to energies S_e, S_f, S_g and S_h together form another signal group. The Y-coordinate of the second touching point can be calculated by an expression (2.4): (S_e×P_e+S_f×P_f+S_g×P_g+S_h×P_h)/(S_e+S_f+S_g+S_h). According to the expression (2.4), in sensing direction Y, the weights of energies S_f, S_g and S_e, S_h of the first signals and the second signals are associated with the positions P_e, P_f, P_g and P_h of the sensing points of the first signals and the second signals, and the positions P_e, P_f, P_g and P_h of the sensing points where the first signals and the second signals being detected are sorted in a descending order or an ascending order according to the precedence of the positions of the sensing points where the first signals and the second signals being detected. That is, the value of the P_e, P_f, P_g and P_h are sorted in a descending order or an ascending order. In addition, in sensing direction Y, the positions P_e, P_h of the sensing points where the second signals being detected are located at both sides of the positions P_f and P_g of the sensing points where the first signals being detected. The sensing points where the second signals being detected have an equal number at both sides of the sensing points where the first signals being detected. It should be understood, in the embodiment, the energies S_d and S_i and the positions P_d and P_i of the sensing points corresponding to S_d, S_i in sensing direction Y can also be applied into the expression (2.4) to calculate the Y-coordinate of the second touching point. In other words, in sensing direction Y, the number of the second signal(s) in a signal group can be set according to actual requirement.

The relationship of above X-coordinates and Y-coordinates can be determined by reference of traditional ghost point eliminating means. For example, if a determined result of above embodiment by reference of traditional ghost point eliminating means is that, the groups 21 and 22 are a valid combination for a touching point, the groups 23 and 24 are a valid combination for another touching point, thus, the X-coordinate and Y-coordinate of the first touching point can be obtained by a combination of the groups 21 and 22, and the X-coordinate and Y-coordinate of the second touching point can be obtained by a combination of the groups 23 and 24. Thus, a two-dimensional coordinate of a plurality of touching points, that is, the X-coordinates and Y-coordinates of the plurality of touching points in the embodiment can be obtained.

In the embodiments, above energy of each the at least one first signal or the second signals can respectively be amplitude of a voltage or a current on the corresponding sensing point or of the corresponding signal.
