Time-domain signal through reduction audio signal, spatial information and a plurality of filter coefficient all in M point frequency domain, represented being multiplied each other obtain has M useful signal.For expression reduction audio signal, spatial information and filter coefficient in M point frequency domain, can carry out M point DFT or M point FFT.
Useful signal is the signal that not necessarily has 0 value.For example, can generate x useful signal altogether through from sound signal, obtaining x signal via sampling.In this x useful signal, y useful signal is by zero padding.Then, the decreased number of useful signal is to (x-y).Afterwards, the signal with a useful signal and the signal with b useful signal be by convolution, thereby obtain (a+b-1) individual useful signal altogether.
Reducing multiplying each other of audio signal, spatial information and filter coefficient in the M point frequency domain can provide and convolution in time domain reduction audio signal, effect that spatial information is identical with filter coefficient.Signal with (3*M-2) individual useful signal can generate through the result who reduction audio signal, spatial information and filter coefficient in the M point frequency domain is converted to time domain and this conversion of convolution.
Therefore, maybe be different through reduction audio signal, spatial information and filter coefficient in the frequency domain being multiplied each other and multiplied result being converted to the number of the useful signal in the signal that time domain obtains with the number of useful signal in the signal that obtains through reduction audio signal, spatial information and filter coefficient in the convolution time domain.As a result, aliasing can take place during the reduction of the 3D in frequency domain audio signal was converted to time-domain signal.
In order to prevent aliasing, the number of the useful signal of the reduction audio signal in the time domain, the summation of number of number and filter coefficient of useful signal that is mapped to the spatial information of frequency domain can not be greater than M.The number of useful signal that is mapped to the spatial information of frequency domain can be confirmed according to the number of the point of frequency domain.In other words, if the spatial information that each parameter band is represented is mapped to N point frequency domain, then the number of the useful signal of spatial information can be N.
Comprise the first zero padding unit 701 and first frequency domain converting unit 702 with reference to figure 7, the first territory converting units 700.The 3rd rendering unit 710 comprises map unit 711, time domain converting unit 712, the second zero padding unit 713, second frequency domain converting unit 714, multi-channel signal generation unit 715, the 3rd zero padding unit 716, the 3rd frequency domain converting unit 717 and 3D reduction audio signal generation unit 718.
The reduction audio signal with X sample in the 701 pairs of time domains in the first zero padding unit is carried out the zero padding operation makes the number of samples of reduction audio signal to increase to M from X.First frequency domain converting unit 702 is reduced audio signal with zero padding and is converted M point frequency-region signal to.Reduction audio signal through zero padding has M sample.In M sample of the reduction audio signal of zero padding, only X sample is useful signal.
Map unit 711 maps to N point frequency domain with the spatial information of each parameter band.Time domain converting unit 712 will be converted to time domain through the spatial information that the mapping that map unit 711 is carried out is obtained.The spatial information that obtains through time domain converting unit 712 execution conversions has N sample.
The spatial information with N sample in the 713 pairs of time domains in the second zero padding unit is carried out the zero padding operation, makes the number of samples of spatial information to increase to M from N.Second frequency domain converting unit 714 will convert M point frequency-region signal through the spatial information of zero padding to.Spatial information through zero padding has N sample.In N sample of the spatial information of zero padding, only
Figure S2007800045354D00131
individual sample is effective.
The spatial information that multi-channel signal generation unit 715 provides through the reduction audio signal that makes first frequency domain converting unit 712 and provide and the second frequency domain converting unit 714 generation multi-channel signal that multiplies each other.The multi-channel signal that is generated by multi-channel signal generation unit 715 has M useful signal.On the other hand, the multi-channel signal that reduction audio signal that is provided by first frequency domain converting unit 712 through convolution in time domain and the spatial information that is provided by second frequency domain converting unit 714 obtain has (X+N-1) individual useful signal.
The zero padding operation can be carried out to the Y filter coefficient of representing in the time domain in the 3rd zero padding unit 716, makes the number of sample can increase to M.The 3rd frequency domain converting unit 717 converts the zero padding filter coefficient to M point frequency domain.Filter coefficient through zero padding has M sample.In M sample, only Y sample is useful signal.
A plurality of filter coefficients that 3D reduction audio signal generation unit 718 provides through multi-channel signal that multi-channel signal generation unit 715 is generated and the 3rd frequency domain converting unit 717 multiply each other and generate 3D and reduce audio signal.The 3D reduction audio signal that is generated by 3D reduction audio signal generation unit 718 has M useful signal.On the other hand, the 3D reduction audio signal that multi-channel signal that is generated by multi-channel signal generation unit 715 through convolution in time domain and the filter coefficient that is provided by the 3rd frequency domain converting unit 717 obtain has (X+N+Y-2) individual useful signal.
Through first, second and the 3rd frequency domain converting unit 702 employed M point frequency domains being arranged to satisfied following equation: M >=(X+N+Y-2) prevent that aliasing from being possible.In other words, might prevent aliasing through M point DFT or the M point FFT that first, second and the 3rd frequency domain converting unit 702,714 and 717 can be carried out satisfy following equation: M >=(X+N+Y-2).
Carry out except that DFT bank of filters, fft filters group and the bank of filters the QMF group to the conversion of frequency domain is capable of using.The generation hrtf filter capable of using of 3D reduction audio signal is carried out.
The number of the useful signal of the spatial information method except that said method capable of using is regulated, or most effective and need the minimum a kind of method of calculated amount to regulate in the said method capable of using.
Not only signal, coefficient or spatial information be converted to from frequency domain time domain or conversely during, and signal, coefficient or spatial information be converted to from the QMF territory hybrid domain or conversely during, all aliasing can take place.The above-mentioned method that prevents aliasing also be used in signal, coefficient or spatial information from the QMF territory be converted to hybrid domain or conversely during prevent that aliasing from taking place.
The spatial information that is used to generate multi-channel signal or 3D reduction audio signal can change.Result as spatial information changes can take place as the signal of noise discontinuous in the output signal.
Noise smoothing method capable of using in the output signal reduces, and can prevent that through this smoothing method spatial information from changing fast.
For example, when first spatial information that when first frame and second frame are adjacent one another are, puts on first frame and the spatial information that puts on second frame not simultaneously, between first frame and second frame, take place discontinuous most probably.
In this case; First spatial information capable of using compensates second spatial information or utilizes second spatial information to compensate first spatial information; The difference of the win spatial information and second spatial information can be reduced, thereby can reduce by the discontinuous noise that causes between first and second frames.More specifically, the mean value of available first spatial information of at least one in first spatial information and second spatial information and second spatial information replaces, thereby reduces noise.
Noise is also probably owing to discontinuous generation the between a pair of adjacent parameter frequency band.For example, when when first and second parameter band are adjacent one another are corresponding to the 3rd spatial information of first parameter band with not simultaneously corresponding to the 4th spatial information of second parameter band, discontinuous possibly between first and second parameter band, the generation.
In this case; The 4th spatial information capable of using compensates the 3rd spatial information or utilizes the 3rd spatial information to compensate the 4th spatial information; Make the difference of the 3rd spatial information and the 4th spatial information to reduce, and can reduce by the discontinuous noise that causes between first and second parameter band.More specifically, the mean value of available the 3rd spatial information of at least one in the 3rd spatial information and the 4th spatial information and the 4th spatial information replaces, thereby reduces noise.
The discontinuous noise that the causes method except that said method capable of using by between a pair of consecutive frame or between a pair of adjacent parameter frequency band reduces.
More specifically, can each frame be multiply by the window such as peaceful (Hanning) window of the Chinese, and can " overlapping and interpolation " scheme be put on the result of multiplication, make that the change between the frame can reduce.Perhaps, the output signal that is applied with many spatial informations can be by smoothly, makes change between a plurality of frames that can prevent to export signal.
The spatial information of for example ICC and so on capable of using is regulated the decorrelation between the sound channel in the DFT territory as follows.
Can multiply by the degree that predetermined value is regulated decorrelation through the coefficient that makes the signal that is input to one to two (OTT) or two to three (TTT) frame.Predetermined value can be limited following equation: (A+ (1-A*A) ^0.5*i), and wherein the A indication puts on the ICC value of the predetermined frequency band of OTT or TTT frame, and i indication imaginary part.Imaginary part can be positive or negative.
Predetermined value can be with the weighting factor according to the characteristic of signal, the characteristic of signal for example the signal of energy level, each frequency of signal energy response or apply the type of the frame of ICC value A.As the result who introduces weighting factor, the degree that can further regulate decorrelation, but and level and smooth or interpolation method between application of frame.
As above described, can in frequency domain, generate 3D through HRTF or the header coherent pulse response (HRIR) that use is converted to frequency domain and reduce audio signal with reference to figure 7.
Perhaps, 3D reduction audio signal can generate with the reduction audio signal through convolution HRIR in time domain.Can the 3D reduction audio signal that generate in the frequency domain be stayed in the frequency domain, and not carry out contrary territory conversion.
For convolution HRIR in time domain and reduction audio signal, can use finite impulse response (FIR) (FIR) wave filter or IIR (IIR) wave filter.
As stated, relate to the combination of using the HRTF in the frequency domain or being converted to first method of the HRIR of frequency domain, second method that relates to convolution HRIR in time domain or first and second methods and generate 3D reduction audio signal according to the code device of the embodiment of the invention and decoding device are capable of using.
Fig. 8 to 11 illustrates bit stream according to an embodiment of the invention.
With reference to figure 8, bit stream comprises: comprise the multi-channel decoding information field that generates the multi-channel signal information needed, comprise the 3D that generates 3D reduction audio signal information needed and play up information field and comprise to utilize and be included in the information in the multi-channel decoding information field and be included in the header fields that 3D plays up the required header information of information in the information field.Bit stream can only comprise that multi-channel decoding information field, 3D play up one or two in information field and the header fields.
With reference to figure 9, the bit stream that contains the necessary supplementary of decode operation can comprise: comprise the customized configuration header fields of whole header information through coded signal and comprise a plurality of frame data field about the supplementary of a plurality of frames.More specifically, each frame data field can comprise: the frame header fields and the frame parameter data field that comprises the spatial information of respective frame that comprise the header information of respective frame.Perhaps, each in the frame data field only can comprise the frame parameter data field.
In the frame parameter data field each can comprise a plurality of modules, and each module comprises sign and supplemental characteristic.Module is to comprise supplemental characteristic such as spatial information and the data set that such as gain of reduction audio mixing and smoothed data, improves necessary other data of signal tonequality.
If receive about module data having no under the situation of additional mark by frame header fields specified message; If further classified by frame header fields specified message; If perhaps receive additional mark and data together with not by frame header specified message, then module data can not comprise any sign.
About the supplementary of 3D reduction audio signal, for example the HRTF coefficient information can be included at least one in customized configuration header fields, frame header fields and the frame parameter data field.
With reference to Figure 10, bit stream can comprise: comprise a plurality of multi-channel decoding information fields that generate the multi-channel signal information necessary and comprise a plurality of 3D that generate 3D reduction audio signal information necessary and play up information field.
When receiving bit stream, decoding device can use multi-channel decoding information field or 3D to play up information field and carry out decode operation and skip any multi-channel decoding information field and 3D that in decode operation, does not use and play up information field.In this case, can confirm that in the information field which multi-channel decoding information field and 3D play up and will be used to carry out decode operation according to the type of the signal that will reproduce.
In other words, in order to generate multi-channel signal, decoding device can be skipped 3D and play up information field, and reads the information that is included in the multi-channel decoding information field.On the other hand, in order to generate 3D reduction audio signal, decoding device can be skipped the multi-channel decoding information field, and reads and be included in 3D and play up the information in the information field.
Some the method for skipping in a plurality of fields in the bit stream is following.
At first, can be included in the bit stream about the big or small field length information of the bit of field.In this case, can skip this field through skipping corresponding to the bit number of field bit size.Can be with of the beginning of field length information setting in field.
The second, can synchronization character be arranged on the terminal or beginning of field.In this case, can skip this field through location positioning field based on synchronization character.
The 3rd, if confirm and fixed the length of field in advance, then can skip this field through skipping corresponding to the data volume of the length of this field.Can be included in fixed field length information in the bit stream or be stored in the decoding device about field length.
The 4th, one of a plurality of fields are skipped in the above-mentioned field skipping method capable of using two kinds or more kinds of combinations.
It is to skip the field information necessary that field such as field length information, synchronization character or fixed field length information is skipped information; Can it be included in one of customized configuration header fields shown in Figure 9, frame header fields and frame parameter data field, maybe can it be included in the field beyond the field shown in Figure 9.
For example; In order to generate multi-channel signal; Decoding device can be skipped 3D and plays up information field with reference to being arranged on field length information, synchronization character or fixed field length information that each 3D plays up the beginning of information field, and reads the information that is included in the multi-channel decoding information field.
On the other hand; In order to generate 3D reduction audio signal; Decoding device can be skipped the multi-channel decoding information field with reference to field length information, synchronization character or the fixed field length information of the beginning that is arranged on each multi-channel decoding information field, and reads and be included in 3D and play up the information in the information field.
Bit stream can comprise that the data that indication is included in this bit stream generate the necessary or generation 3D reduction audio signal information necessary of multi-channel signal.
Yet; Even bit stream does not comprise any spatial information such as CLD; And only comprise that generating 3D (for example reduces the necessary data of audio signal; The hrtf filter coefficient), also can reproduce multi-channel signal, and not need spatial information through utilizing the necessary data of generation 3D reduction audio signal to decode.
For example, obtain the stereo parameter of conduct from the reduction audio signal about the spatial information of two sound channels.Then, convert stereo parameter to spatial information, and generate multi-channel signal through putting on the reduction audio signal by the spatial information that conversion is obtained about a plurality of sound channels to be reproduced.
On the other hand; Even only comprising, bit stream generates the necessary data of multi-channel signal; Also can reproduce the reduction audio signal and need not add decode operation, maybe can reproduce 3D reduction audio signal through utilizing additional hrtf filter that reduction audio signal execution 3D is handled.
Generate the necessary data of multi-channel signal and generate the necessary data of 3D reduction audio signal if bit stream comprises, then can allow the user to determine to reproduce multi-channel signal or 3D reduction audio signal.

For example; If parameter such as CLD, ICC or CPC and the information that is included among the modules A rbitraryDownmixData () are only used during decode operation, the module SmgData () and the TempShapeData () that then are arranged between module TttData () and the ArbitraryDownmixData () are unessential.Therefore, skip module SmgData () and TempShapeData () is efficient.

With reference to Figure 11, bit stream can comprise: comprise the multichannel header fields of reproducing the necessary header information of multi-channel signal, comprise the 3D that reproduces the necessary header information of 3D reduction audio signal and play up header fields and comprise and reproduce a plurality of multi-channel decoding information fields that multi-channel signal institute must data.
In order to reproduce multi-channel signal, decoding device can be skipped 3D and play up header fields, and from multichannel header fields and multi-channel decoding information field reading of data.
Skip method that 3D plays up header fields with above identical, therefore, can skip its detailed description with reference to the described field skipping method of Figure 10.
In order to reproduce 3D reduction audio signal, decoding device can be played up the header fields reading of data from multi-channel decoding information field and 3D.For example, the decoding device reduction audio signal that is included in the multi-channel decoding information field capable of using generates 3D reduction audio signal with the HRTF coefficient information that is included in the 3D reduction audio signal.
Figure 12 is the block diagram that is used to handle the coding/decoding device of any reduction audio signal according to an embodiment of the invention.With reference to Figure 12, reducing audio signal arbitrarily is the reduction audio signal except the reduction audio signal that is generated by the multi-channel encoder device 801 that is included in the code device 800.With the detailed description of omitting the process identical with the embodiment of Fig. 1.
With reference to Figure 12, code device 800 comprises multi-channel encoder device 801, spatial information synthesis unit 802 and comparing unit 803.
Multi-channel encoder device 801 will be imported multi-channel signal reduction audio mixing and become stereo or monophony reduction audio signal, and generate from the necessary fundamental space information of reduction audio signal recovery multi-channel signal.
Comparing unit 803 will reduce audio signal and compare with reducing audio signal arbitrarily, and generate compensated information based on result relatively.Compensated information be compensation arbitrarily the reduction audio signal make that the reduction audio signal can be converted near the reduction audio signal necessary arbitrarily.Decoding device compensated information capable of using compensates any reduction audio signal, and utilizes through any reduction audio signal of compensation and recover multi-channel signal.The multi-channel signal that recovers more is similar to original input multi-channel signal than the multi-channel signal that recovers from any reduction audio signal that is generated by multi-channel encoder device 801.
Compensated information can be the poor of reduction audio signal and any reduction audio signal.Decoding device can compensate any down-mix audio signal in the Calais with the difference of reducing audio signal arbitrarily with any reduction audio signal mutually through reducing audio signal.
The reduction audio signal can be the reduction audio mixing gain of the indication reduction audio signal and the difference of the energy level that reduces audio signal arbitrarily with the difference of reducing audio signal arbitrarily.
Can be directed against each frequency band, each time/time slot and/or each sound channel and confirm the gain of reduction audio mixing.For example, the gain of part reduction audio mixing can be confirmed to each frequency band, and the gain of another part reduction audio mixing can be confirmed to each time slot.
Reducing the audio mixing gain can or be that each frequency band that reduces audio signal optimization is arbitrarily confirmed to each parameter band.Parameter band is the frequency interval that is applied with the spatial information of parameter type.
Can be with reduction audio signal and the residual quantityization of the energy level of reducing audio signal arbitrarily.The resolution of quantization level of difference that quantizes the reduction audio signal and reduce the energy level of audio signal arbitrarily can and quantize the reduction audio signal and reduces the resolution of quantization level of the CLD between the audio signal arbitrarily identical or different.In addition, the reduction audio signal and the quantification of difference that reduces the energy level of audio signal arbitrarily can relate to and use all or part of of the quantization level that quantizes the reduction audio signal and reduce the CLD between the audio signal arbitrarily.
Because the resolution that reduction audio signal and the resolution of difference of the energy level of audio signal of reducing arbitrarily generally are lower than the reduction audio signal and reduce the CLD between the audio signal arbitrarily; So and the resolution compared that quantizes to reduce audio signal and reduce the quantization level of the CLD between the audio signal arbitrarily, the resolution that quantizes the reduction audio signal and the quantization level of the difference of the energy level that reduces audio signal arbitrarily can have small value.
The compensation compensated information of reduction audio signal arbitrarily can be the extend information that comprises residual information, and its appointment can not utilize the component of the input multi-channel signal of any reduction audio signal or reduction audio mixing gain recovery.Decoding device extend information capable of using recovers to utilize the component of the input multi-channel signal of any reduction audio signal or reduction audio mixing gain recovery, thereby recovers hardly the signal that can distinguish with original input multi-channel signal.
The method that generates extend information is following.
Multi-channel encoder device 801 can generate the information relevant with the component that reduces the input multi-channel signal that audio signal lacks as first extend information.Decoding device can recover hardly the signal that can distinguish with original input multi-channel signal through first extend information being applied to utilize reduction audio signal and basic spatial information to generate multi-channel signal.
Perhaps, multi-channel encoder device 801 reduction audio signal capable of using and fundamental space information are recovered multi-channel signal, and the difference of multi-channel signal that generates the multi-channel signal recovered and original input is as first extend information.
Comparing unit 803 can generate and the component that reduces the reduction audio signal that audio signal lacked arbitrarily---promptly can not utilize the component of the reduction audio signal of reduction audio mixing gain compensation---, and relevant information is as second extend information.Decoding device any reduction audio signal capable of using and second extend information are recovered almost the signal that can not distinguish with the reduction audio signal.
Except that said method, extend information various residual error interpretation methods also capable of using generate.
Gain of reduction audio mixing and extend information both can be used as compensated information.More specifically, can obtain gain of reduction audio mixing and extend information to the whole frequency band of reduction audio signal, and can be with them together as compensated information.Perhaps, can the gain of reduction audio mixing be used as the compensated information to a part of frequency band of reduction audio signal, and with the compensated information of extend information as another part frequency band of reduction audio signal.For example, can extend information be used as the compensated information of the low-frequency band of reduction audio signal, and will reduce the compensated information of audio mixing gain as the high frequency band of reduction audio signal.
Also can with except that the low-frequency band of reduction audio signal, be used as compensated information such as the relevant extend information of the peak value of appreciable impact tonequality or the fractional reduction audio signal the recess.
Spatial information synthesis unit 802 synthetic fundamental space information (for example, CLD, CPC, ICC and CTD) and compensated informations, thereby span information.In other words, the spatial information that is sent to decoding device can comprise fundamental space information, the gain of reduction audio mixing and first and second extend informations.
Spatial information can be included in the bit stream together with reducing audio signal arbitrarily, and can bit stream be sent to decoding device.
Extend information is encoded with any reduction audio signal audio coding method such as AAC method, MP3 method or BSAC method capable of using.Extend information is with reduction audio signal identical audio coding method capable of using or different audio coding methods are encoded arbitrarily.
If extend information is utilized identical audio coding method coding with any reduction audio signal, decode extend information and reduction audio signal arbitrarily of decoding device single audio frequency coding/decoding method capable of using then.In this case, always can be decoded because reduce audio signal arbitrarily, so extend information also always can be decoded.Yet; Generally be input to decoding device as the pulse code modulation (pcm) signal because reduce audio signal arbitrarily; The type of reducing the audio codec of audio signal arbitrarily that is used to encode may not easily be discerned; Therefore, be used to the to encode type of audio codec of extend information possibly can not easily be discerned.
Therefore, the relevant audio codec information of type of the audio codec of reduction audio signal and extend information can be inserted into bit stream with being used for encoding arbitrarily.
More specifically, can audio codec information be inserted the customized configuration header fields of bit stream.In this case, decoding device can extract audio codec information from the customized configuration header fields of bit stream, and uses the audio codec information decoding that is extracted to reduce audio signal and extend information arbitrarily.
On the other hand, if reduce audio signal arbitrarily and extend information utilizes the different coding method to encode, then extend information may not be decoded.In this case, because can not discern the end of extend information, so can not carry out further decode operation.
In order to address this problem, can the audio codec information relevant with the type of the audio codec that is respectively applied for coding any reduction audio signal and extend information be inserted the customized configuration header fields of bit stream.Then, decoding device can read audio codec information from the customized configuration header fields of bit stream, and uses the information that the reads extend information of decoding.If decoding device does not comprise the decoding unit of any decodable code extend information, then may not further carry out the decoding of extend information, and can read the extend information information afterwards that is right after.
Can represent by the syntax elements of the customized configuration header fields that is included in bit stream with the relevant audio codec information of type of the audio codec of the extend information that is used for encoding.For example, audio coding decoding information can be represented by 4 bit syntax elements bsResidualCodecType, like what indicate in the following table 1.
Table 1
Figure S2007800045354D00231
Extend information not only can comprise residual information, also can comprise the sound channel extend information.The sound channel extend information is to have the more multi-channel signal information necessary of multichannel with being expanded into through the multi-channel signal that utilizes the spatial information decoding to obtain.For example, the sound channel extend information can be that 5.1 sound channel signals or 7.1 sound channel signals are expanded into 9.1 sound channel signal information necessary.
Can extend information be included in the bit stream, and can bit stream be sent to decoding device.Then, decoding device can compensate the reduction audio signal, or utilizes extend information to expand multi-channel signal.Yet decoding device can be skipped extend information, rather than from bit stream, extracts extend information.For example, the 3D reduction audio signal generation multi-channel signal or the utilization that are included in the bit stream in utilization are included under the situation of the reduction audio signal generation 3D reduction audio signal in the bit stream, and decoding device can be skipped extend information.
Skipping the method that is included in the extend information in the bit stream can be with above identical with reference to one of described field skipping method of Figure 10.
For example, at least one in the fixed bit property size information of the fixed bit size of the synchronization character of the extend information bit size information that is attached to the beginning of the bit stream that comprises extend information and indicates the bit size of extend information capable of using, the beginning that is attached to the field that comprises extend information or end and indication extend information skipped.Can bit size information, synchronization character and fixed bit size information all be included in the bit stream.Also can the fixed bit size information be stored in the decoding device.
With reference to Figure 12, decoding unit 810 comprises reduction audio mixing compensating unit 811,3D rendering unit 815 and multi-channel decoder 816.
Reduction audio mixing compensating unit 811 utilizes and is included in the compensated information in the spatial information---and for example utilize gain of reduction audio mixing or extend information to compensate any reduction audio signal.
3D rendering unit 815 is through generating demoder 3D reduction audio signal to carry out the 3D rendering operations through the reduction audio signal of compensation.Multi-channel decoder 816 utilizes the reduction audio signal through compensation to generate the 3D multi-channel signal with the fundamental space information that is included in the spatial information.
Reduction audio mixing compensating unit 811 can compensate any reduction audio signal by following mode.
If compensated information is the gain of reduction audio mixing, then reduce audio mixing compensating unit 811 and utilize reduction audio mixing gain compensation to reduce the energy level of audio signal arbitrarily, make that the reduction audio signal can be converted into the signal that is similar to the reduction audio signal arbitrarily.
If compensated information is second extend information, then reduces 811 second extend information compensation capable of using of audio mixing compensating unit and reduce the component that audio mixing information is lacked arbitrarily.
Multi-channel decoder 816 can generate multi-channel signal through prematrix M1, audio mixing matrix M 2 and rearmounted matrix M 3 sequentially being put on reduction audio mixing matrix signal.In this case, second extend information is used in audio mixing matrix M 2 is put on reduction audio signal compensating during reduction audio signal.In other words, second extend information can be used for compensating the reduction audio signal that has been applied with prematrix M1.
As stated, can come optionally to compensate each in a plurality of sound channels through extend information being applied to generate multi-channel signal.For example, if extend information is put on the center channel of audio mixing matrix M 2, then can be by the L channel and the right channel component of extend information compensation reduction audio signal.If extend information is put on the L channel of audio mixing matrix M 2, then can be by the left channel component of extend information compensation reduction audio signal.
Gain of reduction audio mixing and extend information both can be used as compensated information.For example, extend information compensation capable of using is the low-frequency band of reduction audio signal arbitrarily, and reduction audio mixing gain compensation capable of using reduces the high frequency band of audio signal arbitrarily.In addition, but extend information also capable of using compensation remove the low-frequency band of reducing audio signal arbitrarily, reduce audio signal arbitrarily such as the peak value of appreciable impact tonequality or the sector of breakdown of recess.With the relevant information of part by extend information compensation can be included in the bit stream.Whether the reduction audio signal that indication is included in the bit stream is whether information and the indication bit stream that reduces audio signal arbitrarily comprises that the information of compensated information can be included in the bit stream.
For the reduction audio signal clipped wave that prevents to generate by coding unit 800, can be with the reduction audio signal divided by predetermined gain.Predetermined gain can have quiescent value or dynamic value.
Reduction audio mixing compensating unit 811 can recover original reduction audio signal through utilizing predetermined gain to be compensated for as to prevent the reduction audio signal that slicing weakens.
Can easily reproduce any reduction audio signal by 811 compensation of reduction audio mixing compensating unit.Perhaps, any reduction audio signal also to be compensated can be input to 3D rendering unit 815, and can convert demoder 3D reduction audio signal to by 3D rendering unit 815.
With reference to Figure 12, reduction audio mixing compensating unit 811 comprises the first territory converter 812, compensation processor 813 and the second territory converter 814.
