`
`1. Adisplay apparatus comprising:
`
`an electro-optical transfer function (EOTF) converter that receives a video signal
`
`having a first luminance range and performs EOTF conversion on the video signal to obtain
`
`a first luminance value;
`
`a luminance converter, which is provided for converting the video signal into a pseudo
`
`High Dynamic Range signal having a second luminance range, a maximum value of the
`
`second luminance range being smaller than a maximum valueof the first luminance range,
`
`the luminance converter that converts the first luminance value into a second luminance
`
`10
`
`value within the second luminance range, the maximum value of the second luminance
`
`range being larger than a maximum value of a luminance of a Standard Dynamic Range
`
`(SDR) signal, and the maximum luminance value of the SDR signal being 100 nit; and
`
`a display that displays the pseudo High Dynamic Range signal having the second
`
`luminance range based on the second luminancevalue,
`
`15
`
`wherein the maximum value of the second luminance range is a maximum possible
`
`display peak luminance (DPL) that the display is capable of displaying, and is greater than
`
`the maximum luminance value of the SDR signal,
`
`wherein the luminance converter performs conversionofthe first luminance value into
`
`the second luminance value, based on characteristic information on a characteristic of the
`
`20
`
`display apparatus,
`
`wherein the luminance converter performs conversionofthe first luminance value into
`
`the second luminance value, based on content luminance information of the video signal,
`
`and
`
`the characteristic information indicates one of the display peak luminance (DPL)
`
`25
`
`displayable by the display, a display mode of the display, and an input-output characteristic
`
`supportedby the display.
