ECE Ph.D. Qualifying Exam: CS-5 (637)

Problem 1 , 2

Problem 1

Consider the emissive display device which is accurately modeled by the equation

$ \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} X\\ Y\\ Z \end{array}} \right] = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} a&b&c\\ d&e&f\\ g&h&i \end{array}} \right]\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} R\\ G\\ B \end{array}} \right] $

where R, G and B are the red, green, and blue inputs in the range 0 to 255 that are used to modulate physically realizable color primaries.

a) What is the gamma of the device?

b) What are the chromaticity components $ (x_r,y_r), (x_g,y_g) $ and $ (x_b,y_b) $ of the device's three primaries.

c) What are the chromaticity components $ (x_w,y_w) $ of the device's white point.

d) If $ (X,Y,Z)=(0,1/2,1/2) $, then what can you say about the values of $ (R,G,B) $? (Hint: Draw a chromaticity diagram to find the answer.)

e) Imagine that the values of $ (R,G,B) $ are quantized to 8 bits, and that you view a smooth gradient from black to white on this device. What artifact are you likely to see, and where in the gradient will you see it?

Solution:

a) $ \gamma=1 $

b)

$ (x_r,y_r)=(\frac{a}{a+d+g},\frac{d}{a+d+g}) $
$ (x_g,y_g)=(\frac{b}{b+e+h},\frac{e}{b+e+h}) $
$ (x_b,y_b)=(\frac{c}{c+f+i},\frac{f}{c+f+i}) $

c)

$ (x_w,y_w)=(\frac{a+b+c}{a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+i},\frac{d+e+f}{a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+i}) $

d) If $ (X,Y,Z)=(0,1/2,1/2) $, then $ (x,y)=(0,1/2) $. Pro1 d.PNG
In the chromaticity diagram, this point is outside the horse shoe shape, wo its RGB values are not all larger than 0 ($ R<0,G>0,B>0 $).

e) We are likely to see quantization artifact in dark region.
