Abstract
In a method of local dimming of a light source including a plurality of light-emitting blocks, a dimming level of each light-emitting block of the plurality of light-emitting blocks is determined. A compensation dimming level of a predetermined light-emitting block is calculated based on dimming levels of peripheral light-emitting blocks disposed around a periphery of the predetermined light-emitting block. The predetermined light-emitting block is driven based on the compensation dimming level.
