Software Audio Codec for Interactive Television

نویسنده

  • M. Bartkowiak
چکیده

The paper describes requirements, concept and general structure of audio compression scheme employed in interactive television iTVP project. A perceptual coder based on a psychoacoustic model and spatio-temporal signal decomposition using a hybrid filterbank is proposed. The coder structure is derived from standard MPEG L3 technique. Some ideas for improving the performance at low bit rates are introduced. Sinusoidal+noise modeling is proposed as a means of bandwidth extension. Software implementation issues regarding real-time performance are discussed at the end of the paper.

Low-delay Predictive Audio Coding for the Hivits Hdtv Codec

This Report describes the work on predictive audio coding carried out by the BBC as part of the RACE 'HIVITS' project. The purpose of the work was to develop and demonstrate a low bit-rate audio codec with low delay for use with a digital HDTV (high definition television) signal coded by the HIVITS HDTV codec and capable of conveying at least 5 channels of audio within the HDTV bitstream.

Unification of Speech and Audio Coding Technologies for Mobile Devices

As mobile devices become multi-functional, and multiple devices converge into a single device, there is a strong market need for an audio codec that is able to provide consistent quality for mixed speech and music content. In this paper, we propose unified speech and audio coding technology which could provide best quality for both speech and music contents. For the evaluation of the new codec ...

Audio for Mobile TV, iPad and iPod

For five years, the author has systematically studied audio capabilities of Pod and Mobile TV devices from Apple, Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson. This paper is the first public report from parts of the test investigating what a Mobile user is able to hear, and what she can't. Taking test results and perceptual criteria into account, guidelines are given for optimum station handling of program...

This document defines the Opus interactive speech and audio codec. Opus is designed to handle a wide range of interactive audio applications, including Voice over IP, videoconferencing, in-game chat, and even live, distributed music performances. It scales from low bitrate narrowband speech at 6 kbit/s to very high quality stereo music at 510 kbit/s. Opus uses both Linear Prediction (LP) and th...
