ABSTRACT 7_\F$bp`
Based on analyzing the LC rear projective TV system, The OE (optical engine) for three penal LCoS rear projection TV 5TJd9:\Af
system has been designed and modeled, The OE (optical engine) of LC rear projection display is the main component of ~5+RK16
the system, and it directly affects final performance, so the design of good color performance, high brightness and "`ftcJUd
contrast and high optical efficient is the key of the system. From a commercial viewpoint, a compact size and light WnG 2\(U
weight design makes it more competitive. LightTools software has a great many of powerful functions, such as :\|A.#

modeling of optical system, analysis of illumination, modeling of machine structure, analysis of polarization and design {3x>kRaKci
of optical coating. We have used LightTools to analyses and optimize a whole optical engine of three penal LCoS > T * `Y0P
projection display including illumination system, dividing and recombining of colors system, projection lens. At the end ES4Wtc)&
evaluated the performances of optical engine (parameters of output, uniformity, contract, resolution and so on). 3tZIL
