Various embodiment of the present invention relates to the electronic equipment that merges waken system, and relates more specifically to system, equipment and the method the main frame of electronic equipment remotely waken up from its dormancy, sleep or holding state by acoustical signal.User can send voice wake command to electronic equipment.In the time receiving order, waken system wakes the main frame of electronic equipment up from standby, sleep or park mode, and electronic equipment turns back to normal running thereafter.On the one hand, waken system can initiatively receive and processed voice wake command, even in the time that main frame is in dormant state.On the other hand, the power consumption of waken system is controlled in low in fact level, makes it not make the total power budget burden of electronic equipment heavy, particularly in the time of electronic equipment dormancy.
Electronic equipment adopts different activity levels to carry out conserve energy consumption better.For example, laptop computer has and the activity level of step-down and standby mode, sleep pattern and the park mode that the energy consumption of step-down is associated gradually gradually.Increasing program is disabled, and in the time of power level step-down, increasing hardware cell is deactivated.Standby mode can join with dark screen-dependent simply.In sleep pattern, the moment of machine state before entering sleep pattern is frozen, and data are temporarily stored in the RAM constantly being powered.But in park mode, such data can be backed up in hard disk, and RAM is also disabled to save more energy consumption.Various embodiment of the present invention is used to electronic equipment is waken up from all these energy saving patterns.For clear and simple, these patterns are commonly called sleep pattern in the present invention, even if they may relate to different activity levels.
Exemplary block Figure 100 of the electronic equipment based on waken system of the various embodiments of Fig. 1 in illustrating according to the present invention.Electronic equipment 100 comprises acoustic transducer 102, impact damper 104, keyword recognition device 106 and main frame 108.Acoustic transducer 102 is coupled into reception acoustical signal, and converts it to electric signal.A part for the acoustical signal of changing is buffered and is stored in impact damper 104 processing for subsequently.Keyword recognition device 106 is processed this part of changed acoustical signal, and identification target keywords generation wherein wakes control up.When identified in target keywords this part in changed acoustical signal, the main frame 108 that is coupled to keyword recognition device 106 is activated and turns back to its normal running.Particularly, acoustic transducer 102, impact damper 104 and keyword recognition device 106 form waken system 110, and it is for waking the main frame 108 of electronic equipment 100 up.
In various embodiment of the present invention, waken system 110 is made response active host 108 to multiple key words, and electronic equipment 100 may need one or more than one key word to be identified in this part of changed acoustical signal.
In various embodiment of the present invention, acoustical signal be can adopt in can audible scope (20Hz-20,000Hz), under or outside frequency.In some embodiment of most of electronic equipments of applying in the routine use relating at us, acoustical signal is can be audible.This part of the acoustical signal of changing must comprise the voice wake command of being sent by equipment user.Voice wake command can comprise that keyword recognition device 106 is interpreted as at least one key word of the request to wake-up master 108.Such key word can be the phrase as " my mobile phone " or " turning on TV ".
In certain embodiments, electronic equipment 100 is applied to some specific purposes, and acoustical signal is ultrasonic or infrasonic sound.An example is to trigger WOR the specific application of operation with ultrasonic signal, for example, warn for user's the specific health and safety in this locality; Other in wake-up device is wireless or optical communications protocols to receive or to send relevant localization data.Other can not audible example be possible with using.
Waken system 110 must maintain low in fact level of power consumption, because the total power budget of electronic equipment 100 may be limited in sleep pattern.But keyword recognition device 106 can relate to some complicated signal processing algorithm, to identify exactly target keywords.The power consumption of keyword recognition device 106 increases along with the complicacy of signal processing algorithm conventionally.As a result of, there is the keyword recognition device 106 of complicated signal processing algorithm sometimes incompatible with waken system 110.
In order to reduce energy consumption, keyword recognition can realize in two steps, for distinguishing fast preliminary step of target keywords and for identifying exactly another high-level steps of target keywords.Preliminary step relates to limited power consumption, and is suitable for integrated in waken system 110.
Another exemplary block Figure 100 of the electronic equipment based on waken system of the various embodiments of Fig. 2 in illustrating according to the present invention.Keyword recognition is divided into two steps, a preliminary step and a high-level steps, and these two steps realize respectively in keyword search logical block 106A and keyword search device 106B.Keyword search logical block 106A is integrated in waken system 110, and remain consistently movable, even if main frame 108 is in sleep pattern.But keyword search device 106B is removed from waken system 110 and disabledly during sleep pattern is consumed with saving power.In certain embodiments, complicated signal processing algorithm is because its relatively scalable power budget is incorporated in keyword search device.
Keyword search logical block 106A is identified at least one target keywords in the part of the acoustical signal of changing of buffer memory in impact damper 104 in advance.Keyword search logical block 106A adopts relatively simple signal processing algorithm, and therefore maintains obvious low-level energy consumption.In one embodiment, this part that keyword search logical block 106A searches for the acoustical signal of changing is to find the speech energy of certain type that can be associated with the voice wake command that comprises some key word to distribute.In certain embodiments, keyword search logical block 106A distributes to distinguish voice wake command and conventional dialogic voice or one section of background music with speech energy.In the time energy distribution being detected, keyword search logical block 106A realizes keyword search device 106B via finger control signal, and this part that sends the acoustical signal of changing is for further identification.
In the time being implemented, keyword search device 106B starts from sleep pattern, and is identified in exactly the key word in this part of changed acoustical signal.In certain embodiments, complicated acoustic processing method is used to identify specific key word according to content and phonetic feature in keyword search device 106B.Because the pitch of voice changes in the middle of different people, if identical key word said by the people except the physical device owner; might be not identified.Once target keywords is identified by keyword search device 106B, wake control up and just produced to activate the main frame 108 in sleep pattern dormancy at first.
In one embodiment, it can be bimodulus that speech energy distributes, because separately a pair of key word in certain time interval is employed.For example, key word can be " phone waking me up ".Acoustic transducer 102 and keyword search logical block 106A are movable to detect this to key word consistently.These two unit consume low-level power, for example several milliwatts, and the dormancy in sleep pattern of the remainder of electronic equipment 100.Be detected once bimodulus speech energy distributes, keyword search logical block 106A is just delivered to keyword search device 106B by the speech samples of the buffer memory that comprises key word " phone waking me up ".Keyword search device 106B carrys out speech samples and the target keywords pair of comparison buffer memory by up-to-date isolation word recognition technology.If target keywords to being identified in the speech samples of buffer memory, keyword search device 106B triggers the control that wakes up to main frame 108, and main frame 108 is waken up from sleep pattern subsequently.In certain embodiments, main frame 108 is waited for and after waking up, is accepted other order.If do not have another order to be received in predetermined time interval, main frame 108 turns back to sleep pattern.
In certain embodiments, main frame 108 sends it back a response receiving to wake up while controlling.This response is can be audible or visible, makes user can be dependent on waken system 110 to identify the position of the electronic equipment 100 of disappearance.In another embodiment, waken system 110 receives the order from user during being applied in activity pattern as passage.Particularly, when driver skipper automobile and can not dial mobile phone time, he or she can wake mobile phone up and dial certain telephone number.Acoustical signal that series of orders is said from driver is recovered with continuous morning call, alternatively by phone release and make a phone call.
According to the present invention, acoustic transducer 102 is the microphones that preferably need low power consumption.In one embodiment, the conventional loudspeaker of seeing in a lot of electronic equipments is divided row's task (be re-tasked) to be used as acoustic transducer 102 in sleep pattern again.Diaphragm in loudspeaker is setting in motion due to sound pressure level, and voice coil loudspeaker voice coil is moved in magnetic field.Therefore produce pro rata with the amplitude of received sound pressure level at the voltage at the terminal two ends of voice coil loudspeaker voice coil.By these means, again divide the loudspeaker of row's task to turn round as dynamic microphones, convert acoustical signal to corresponding electric signal.
In the time that conventional loudspeaker is used as acoustic transducer 102, forever connects power (always on power) and obviously reduce.Particularly, almost each mobile device has one or more built-in microphones.But, as conventionally obtainable and the conventional microphone using due to its relative high power consumption instead of preferably.These microphones need to be started by constant bias current conventionally, and this bias current is generally between 150 μ A and 2mA.The total power budget of supposing sleep pattern is several milliwatts only, and microphone and the biasing that is associated will consume a sizable part for this budget.
In addition, general microphone only maintains the single pattern for sound conversion; But in the time relating to two kinds of sound translative mode, waken system 110 can work better with lower power level.In first mode, acoustic transducer 102 is to provide the loudspeaker that is again divided row's task of the simplification electric signal enough for pre-first sign identification, distributes to distinguish voice wake command especially for the speech energy based on certain type.In the second pattern, the part of the acoustical signal of changing be hunted down and buffer memory for the keyword recognition at keyword search device 106B.Can then be captured in more accurately the voice subsequently in this second pattern by being enabled in the conventional microphone recording more accurately under higher a little power level.The details after a while of the acoustical signal of therefore, changing is recorded with high fidelity.Acoustic transducer 102 carries out work with the first mode that needs much lower power to operate than the second pattern in its most of running time.Conventional microphone only operates in the second pattern, optimizes first mode to reduce the power consumption during most of running time.
Therefore, acoustic transducer 102 preferably uses 1) again divide the loudspeaker and 2 of row's task) combination based on change the conventional microphone of acoustic pressure more than a kind of pattern realizes.Relating in infrasonic sound and ultrasonic some embodiment, acoustic transducer 102 is also designed to the acoustical signal in corresponding frequency range to respond.
In various embodiment of the present invention, impact damper 104 is incorporated in sonic transducer 102 or keyword recognition device 106A temporarily to store a part for the acoustical signal of being changed.One skilled in the art will appreciate that impact damper 104 is illustrated as alternatively independently parts in Fig. 1 and 2.
The illustrative methods that electronic equipment is waken up from sleep pattern 300 of the various embodiments of Fig. 3 in illustrating according to the present invention.In step 302, acoustical signal is hunted down and converts electric signal to.In step 304, at least one in multiple key words is detected in a part for changed acoustical signal.In step 30, wake control up and produced that the main frame of electronic equipment is activated from sleep pattern.
In order further to save the power consumption under sleep pattern, step 304 is divided into a preliminary step and a senior keyword recognition step.In step 3042, speech energy is distributed in and in this part of changed acoustical signal, is first identified with corresponding at least one in multiple key words.In step 3044, be buffered with this part of the acoustical signal of changing of speech energy distribution correlation connection.In step 3046, keyword search device is activated to detect at least one in the multiple key words in this part of changed acoustical signal.Step 3042 is constantly realized the speech energy detecting roughly corresponding to key word and is distributed, and step 3044 and 3046 just enforcements in the time that such speech energy distribution is successfully identified.Normally power consumption is large to suppose keyword recognition accurately in step 3046, and such layout of the identification step based on independent can reduce the required total power consumption of equipment arousal function effectively.
Those skilled in the art will know that electronic equipment 100 can be a lot of miscellaneous equipments that desktop PC, laptop computer, panel computer, mobile phone, televisor and merging sleep pattern also need to start from sleep pattern.In the time that mobile device is widely used in our daily life, the present invention is useful especially to starting easily mobile device, the energy content of battery that consumes limited quantity during sleep pattern simultaneously.
Although the present invention allows various amendments and optional form, its specific example is shown in the drawings and be described in detail in this article.However, it should be understood that and the invention is not restricted to particular forms disclosed, and contrary, the present invention contains to fall all modifications, equivalence and optional form within the scope of the appended claims.
