Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to an image processing technology of an image sensor, in particular to a method for inhibiting stroboscopic problems generated by an LED light source in the application process of the image sensor and improving the output dynamic range.
Background
With the development and wide application of LED technology, traffic signal lamps, automobile illuminating lamps, other marking indicating lamps and the like used in living environments can be commonly applied in various scenes. The LED light source has the advantages of small size, high luminous efficiency, good stability, long service life and the like, and gradually replaces the traditional light source in the field of illumination. Because the LED light source is driven by a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) mode, the LED light source generally flickers at a frequency of more than 90Hz, and the LED light source can normally work in a state that the switch of the LED light source cannot be identified by naked eyes.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating the effect of LED light source flicker in an image sensor application. As shown in fig. 1, in the nth, N +1, N +2 … th frame of the image frame of the output display, which corresponds to the switching schematic of the LED light source pulses, only some of the switching states are listed for illustrative purposes only. In order to prevent the LED light source as an indicator light from flickering in an image output by an image sensor during use, so as to ensure normal use, the exposure time of the image sensor needs to be prolonged. If the exposure time set by the image sensor is too long, the problem of overexposure is easily caused, and the image output by the image sensor is too bright and blurred. There is therefore a need to design image sensors for multi-scene applications, such as low-sensitivity pixel design, that do not suffer from overexposure of LEDs or other excessively bright scenes during long exposure times.
There are various implementation schemes for improving the dynamic range of the image output by the image sensor, and an implementation mode of combining two frames of images into one frame to output so as to improve the dynamic range of the output image can be adopted. The published application with publication number CN109845242A entitled "WDR imaging with LED flicker suppression" discloses an imaging method with LED flicker suppression, which employs setting a first frame exposure time ET1 of an image sensor to be less than a second frame exposure time ET 2; calculating a high intensity threshold and a low intensity threshold according to the full well capacity FWC of the image sensor; the image sensor outputs an original first frame image signal with a first intensity value and a second frame image signal with a second intensity value, the first frame intensity value and the second frame intensity value are compared with the high intensity threshold value and the low intensity threshold value to determine whether the frame image signal is flicker image data, weights are selected for the first frame pixel data and the second frame pixel data, the weight of the second pixel data is increased under the condition that the flicker data is contained, and finally the two frames are synthesized and output. Although the implementation method can improve the dynamic range of output, the technical scheme needs to expose two frames of image data, store the first frame of image data, and synthesize the second frame of image data after the second frame of image data is read, and the implementation method can generate the problem of motion smear.
Based on the above problems, the present invention provides an innovative pixel structure design of an image sensor, which can suppress the stroboscopic problem of LEDs and improve the output dynamic range, and is suitable for large and small pixel designs.

Detailed Description
The invention scheme proposed by the invention is explained in detail below with reference to the drawings given by the invention. The dimensions, proportions, and configurations of the circuits of the related product design and application embodiments depicted in the various figures of the present invention are for purposes of illustration and description, and are not intended to limit the specific inventive concepts and application embodiments presented herein.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a pixel unit arrangement structure in a pixel array of an image sensor according to the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the pixel array of the image sensor includes a plurality of pixels (basic pixel units) arranged in rows and columns, and fig. 2 shows a schematic diagram in which only a part of the pixels are listed for illustrative purposes. The pixels in the pixel array of the image sensor are arranged in a unit of 3 × 3 structure to form a pixel unit, for example, in the figure, three rows and three columns of B (blue) pixels form a pixel unit, three rows and three columns of G (green) pixels, three rows and three columns of R (red) pixels form a pixel unit respectively. Each pixel unit comprises nine pixels, wherein the central pixel is set as a first group of pixels, and the other eight pixels around the central pixel are set as a second group of pixels.
The inventive arrangements provided by the present invention do not impose limitations on the specific circuit designs employed by the pixels in the image sensor pixel array. In the implementation process, different pixel circuit designs can be adopted according to specific applications and design requirements. For example, in one application example, a 1 × 1 pixel structure circuit may be used to implement the inventive design scheme provided by the present invention. In another application example, the pixel circuit with the shared pixel structure can be used for realizing the pixel design, so that the circuit design is reduced, the chip design area is reduced, and the pixel design application with small size is realized.
Taking the B pixel unit in fig. 2 as an example, the center pixel B is set as a first group of pixels, and eight B pixels around the center pixel B are set as a second group of pixels. The first group of pixels and the second group of pixels set different exposure times and gain patterns. The exposure time of the central pixel B of the first group of pixels is set according to the brightness value of the LED, and the exposure time of the eight B pixels of the second group of pixels is set according to the brightness of the application environment. Since the pulse width modulation frequency of the LEDs is larger than 90Hz, the exposure time setting of the first group should be larger than 11 ms. The first group of pixels is set to a low gain mode and a long exposure time, and the low gain mode is set to reduce the sensitivity to increase the exposure time. The second group of pixels is set to be in a high gain mode, or can be set to be in a low gain mode according to the gain requirement of a specific application environment, and the 8 pixels in the second group are combined (sum) and then output pixel values, so that the sensitivity is further improved. The first group of pixels and the second group of pixels complete exposure in the same frame, and after exposure is completed, the first group of pixels and the second group of pixels are respectively output as two different frames of images alternately line by line, as illustrated in fig. 2.
Fig. 3 is a circuit diagram of a pixel employed in a pixel unit of an image sensor according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the present embodiment, a pixel circuit having a four-pixel sharing structure may be adopted in the embodiment based on the consideration of designing a small-sized pixel, for example, the pixel size is smaller than 1 μm, as shown in the figure. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the inventive arrangements presented herein are not limited to small size pixel design applications. Based on the small-sized pixel design, other kinds of pixels with shared structures are also suitable for the technical scheme provided by the invention, such as a shared structure pixel circuit formed by two pixels. The pixel circuit shown in fig. 3 employs a shared structure for four pixels, PDa and TXa, PDb and TXb, PDc and TXc, and PDd and TXd share a floating diffusion node FD and a reset transistor RST, a conversion gain unit, a source follower transistor SF and a row select transistor RS in an amplification readout circuit. The conversion gain unit includes a conversion gain transistor DCG and a capacitor Cdcg, and includes a high gain mode and a low gain mode. In this embodiment, the four pixels sharing the structure may be arranged in a 2 × 2 layout, and the pixel array includes a plurality of the pixels arranged in a row and column layout. In the embodiment of the invention, the pixel array is set as a pixel unit according to a 3 × 3 pixel structure, the pixel unit comprises a plurality of pixel units with the pixel structure, and each pixel unit is grouped and set with different exposure time and gain modes.
Fig. 3 shows an application example in which, in conjunction with the pixel arrangement shown in fig. 2, a first group of pixels in a 3 × 3 pixel unit employs a low gain mode and a long exposure time, e.g., a gain of 1; the second group of pixels is in a high gain mode and the first and second groups are divided in the same manner as given above in figure 2. The eight pixels of the second group can also be set to be in a low gain mode according to the specific application environment, and the sensitivity requirement of some environment applications can be met when the low gain mode is adopted because the pixel value output of the second group is the sum of eight pixel values. In a particular pixel circuit design application, parasitic capacitance generated by the connection point of the conversion gain transistor of the conversion gain cell to ground may be used as the capacitance of the conversion gain cell. In order to ensure that the gain of the second group of pixels is large enough to meet the requirement of high-gain application in the high-gain mode, a capacitor device can be designed in the conversion gain unit of the pixel circuit to increase the capacity of storing and transferring charges, and the gain is further improved by adjusting the size of the capacitor value to meet the requirement of high-gain application. In the technical solution of the present invention described in this embodiment, when a small-sized pixel is designed using a shared structure pixel as an application example, the reading control of each pixel in a pixel unit may be specifically implemented by a back-end digital circuit, and the specific implementation may be designed according to a specific product application, which is not specifically described and limited in this embodiment.
