Background technology
The sense of hearing dynamic range of the mankind can reach 120dB (decibel), and larger than minimum sound 1,000,000 times of the maximum acoustic that can hear.When public address equipment is at playing audio signal, make an uproar and the maximum fan-out capability (dynamic range of equipment) of public address equipment in the end being often limited to public address equipment itself, as, the end that less sound can be submerged in system, cannot be heard in making an uproar, and maximum sound can be subject to the restriction of the maximum fan-out capability of public address equipment, even there will be clipping distortion.In order to address this problem, introduce the dynamic process of voice signal, it is by reducing the dynamic range of sound, and making to amplify, establish can normal play, and compression limiting technology just belongs to a kind of technology wherein.
Compress the general principle of limiting technology generally: the entire gain first improving source of sound, the end making less sound can not be submerged in system, can be heard in making an uproar; When voice signal reaches the threshold threshold value of setting, according to the compression ratio of setting, reduce the gain of system, to reduce the dynamic range of sound; When voice signal reaches the maximum fan-out capability of system, export and no longer increase with the increase of input, prevent the clipping distortion of voice signal, in this process, the graph of a relation of the input signal of system and output signal as shown in Figure 1, in diagram, V1 is the threshold threshold value of above-mentioned setting, V2 is the magnitude of voltage that above-mentioned system reaches maximum fan-out capability, V lfor the amplitude limit amplitude of system, and the region that the amplitude of input signal is 0 ~ V1 is linear zone, and the amplitude of input signal is the region of V1 ~ V2 is compressional zone, and the amplitude of input signal is amplitude limit district more than the region of V2.In addition, when the dynamic range of system is less, can uses and only be with the algorithm of amplitude limit function to realize above-mentioned purpose, as shown in Figure 2, V lfor the amplitude limit amplitude of system, when the amplitude of input signal reaches V, export and no longer increase with the increase of input, corresponding with Fig. 1, the amplitude of input signal is the region of 0 ~ V is linear zone, and the amplitude of input signal is amplitude limit district more than the region of V.
In the process of compression amplitude limit, two parameters are very important, are respectively start-up time and release time.Wherein, start-up time from systems axiol-ogy to signal, exceeds threshold threshold value to the time of signal controlling in threshold threshold value; Release time is after signal diminishes, the time of the change in gain elimination of compression amplitude limit, as shown in Figure 3.As can be seen from the figure, when input signal reaches the maximum fan-out capability of system, then system reduces the gain of system according to A start-up time preset, until output signal controlled in threshold threshold value; When input signal diminishes, system increases the gain of system in right amount according to B release time preset, and increases output signal and is controlled in threshold threshold value.
But in the process of existing compression amplitude limiter start-up time, due to a variety of causes, easily there is the phenomenon of slicing truncation in output signal.As, start-up time is longer, there will be the phenomenon of slicing truncation; And for example, when there is the application conditions such as output loading becomes weight, supply voltage step-down, temperature uprise change, the dynamic range of public address equipment can reduce, and the phenomenon that now also there will be slicing truncation is waited for.System, when there is the phenomenon of slicing truncation, can produce a large amount of harmonic distortion signals thereupon, thus causes equipment sense of hearing to be deteriorated, and easily damages loud speaker.

Embodiment
In order to be illustrated more clearly in the embodiment of the present invention or technical scheme of the prior art, contrast accompanying drawing is illustrated the specific embodiment of the present invention below.Apparently, accompanying drawing in the following describes is only some embodiments of the present invention, for those of ordinary skill in the art, under the prerequisite not paying creative work, other accompanying drawing can also be obtained according to these accompanying drawings, and obtain other execution mode.
Be illustrated in figure 4 the first execution mode structural representation of compression amplitude limiter 100 provided by the invention, as can be seen from the figure, comprise at this compression amplitude limiter 100: gain regulation module 110, public address module 120 and clipping control module 130, wherein, public address module 120 is connected with gain regulation module 110, and clipping control module 130 is connected with gain regulation module 110 and public address module 120 respectively.In the course of the work, first gain regulation module 110 uses the system signal gain preset to carry out amplification output first to the input signal that system inputs and outputs signal, and judges the amplitude of this first output signal and the relation of compression threshold threshold value V1/ amplitude limit threshold threshold value V2.If the amplitude of the first output signal is beyond compression threshold threshold value V1/ amplitude limit threshold threshold value V2, then gain regulation module 110 can according to this first output signal, feedback regulation is used for the first signal gain (relation of the first signal gain and said system signal gain is: if follow-up second does not occur clipping distortion, then compress this first signal gain is realized input signal by amplitude limiter 100 compression amplitude limit as system signal gain) carrying out compressing amplitude limit to input signal here.Public address module 120 (i.e. public address equipment), after receiving the first output signal, carries out power amplification to it immediately and exports the second output signal, and drives the loud speaker that is connected with public address module 120 to export this second to output signal.
Described above is the workflow compressing amplitude limiter 100 under normal circumstances, if due to a variety of causes (comprise start-up time A long, cause the dynamic range of public address equipment to reduce etc. due to a variety of causes), in the second output signal, output clipping distortion, now clipping control module 130 carries out feedback regulation according to the second output signal exported to secondary signal gain.
Finally, compression amplitude limiter 100 carries out compression amplitude limit according to the first signal gain and secondary signal gain to input signal, and the amplitude of the second output signal exported by compression amplitude limiter 100 controls to export in amplitude limit amplitude, elimination clipping distortion.Certainly, if not there is clipping distortion in the second output signal, then clipping control module 130 can not action, namely feedback regulation can not be carried out to secondary signal gain, and the yield value of secondary signal gain keeps default amplitude limit yield value always, now, amplitude limiter 100 is compressed using the first signal gain as system signal gain.
Be noted that in this embodiment, because the effect of the first signal gain and secondary signal gain is all for regulating and controlling input signal; (exceed amplitude limit amplitude) when the amplitude of input signal is excessive, in the first signal gain and secondary signal gain, select suitable yield value to control in amplitude limit amplitude by the second output signal; When outputing signal amplitude and being too small (being less than amplitude limit amplitude), same suitable yield value of selecting from the first signal gain and secondary signal gain amplifies input signal and exports.Therefore when the feedback regulation of the first signal gain can not solve this clipping distortion, clipping control module 130 realizes this purpose by carrying out feedback regulation to secondary signal gain.Thus, in the process occurring eliminating to clipping distortion from clipping distortion, clipping control module 130 will inevitably reduce the yield value of secondary signal gain rapidly, and the fall off rate of secondary signal gain is greater than the fall off rate of the first signal gain, and in this course compress amplitude limiter 100 using adjustment after secondary signal gain in yield value as system gain value, just can reach the object of elimination clipping distortion.
Above-mentioned execution mode is improved, obtain the second execution mode, as shown in Figure 5, on the basis of the first execution mode, a Gain selector 140 is also comprised in the compression amplitude limiter 100 that present embodiment provides, Gain selector 140 is connected with gain regulation module 110 and clipping control module 130 respectively, and Gain selector 140 is according to the first signal gain and the gain of secondary signal Gain generating system signal, and compression amplitude limiter 100 realizes the compression amplitude limit of input signal according to system signal gain.In a specific embodiment, at synchronization, Gain selector 140 selects less yield value as the yield value in system signal gain in the first signal gain and secondary signal gain, and compression amplitude limiter 100 realizes the compression amplitude limit of input signal according to system signal gain.
According to the description in the first execution mode, we know, in the process occurring eliminating to clipping distortion from clipping distortion, compress amplitude limiter 100 by the yield value in the gain of selection secondary signal as system gain value, therefore in the process of elimination clipping distortion, the yield value of secondary signal gain is obviously less than the yield value of the first signal gain, in other words, although this, yield value of signal gain also can reduce period first, the amplitude reduced does not have the reduction amplitude of secondary signal gain large.In order to avoid the second output signal finally exported is too small, after clipping distortion is eliminated, the yield value that clipping control module 130 can control in secondary signal gain increases gradually, and after this secondary signal gain reaches default amplitude limit yield value, no longer increases.In addition, when there is not clipping distortion in the second output signal, the yield value of secondary signal gain can remain on amplitude limit yield value (now, clipping control module 130 can not adjust secondary signal gain) always; In this process, if the amplitude of the second output signal is too small, compression amplitude limiter 100 can be adjusted by the first signal gain, until its amplitude reaches amplitude limit amplitude, the yield value in the first signal gain in Gain selector 140, is selected to carry out amplifieroperation (yield value of the first signal gain increases gradually but is less than above-mentioned amplitude limit yield value) to input signal in this case.
The second execution mode is improved, obtain the third execution mode, as shown in Figure 6, in the present embodiment, clipping control module 130 comprises distortion detector 131 and the second time schedule controller 132, wherein, distortion detector 131 is connected with public address module 120, and the second time schedule controller 132 is connected with distortion detector 131 and Gain selector 140 respectively.In compression amplitude limiter 100 course of work, the second output signal that distortion detector 131 can continue public address module 120 exports is monitored, and sees and whether occurs clipping distortion.If distortion detector 131 detects that clipping distortion appears in the second output signal, then send clipping distortion signal to the second time schedule controller 132; Second time schedule controller 132 receives this clipping distortion signal, immediately according to the second output signal adjustment secondary signal gain (reducing the yield value of secondary signal gain), and the secondary signal gain after adjustment is sent to Gain selector 140.Subsequently, if distortion detector 131 detects that in the second output signal, clipping distortion eliminates, then send clipping distortion erasure signal to the second time schedule controller 132; After second time schedule controller 132 receives this clipping distortion erasure signal, can adjust the second output gain equally (yield value increasing secondary signal gain), finally the secondary signal gain after adjustment is sent to Gain selector 140.
In a specific embodiment, as shown in Figure 7, the process that adjusts of the second time schedule controller 132 pairs of secondary signal gains is as follows:
When second occurs clipping distortion, according to slicing C start-up time preset, (there is the time that clipping distortion is eliminated in clipping distortion to second time schedule controller 132, amplitude by the second output signal controls the time in slicing amplitude), reduce the yield value of secondary signal gain.In real work, we wish the elimination that the clipping distortion of appearance can be fast as far as possible, therefore here, slicing C start-up time preset usually can be shorter, only has several milliseconds or even delicate level.When the second time schedule controller 132 receives clipping distortion signal, slicing C start-up time that can preset according to this, controlled in slicing amplitude rapidly, and the yield value of secondary signal gain reduces the yield value reduction speed that speed is greater than the first signal gain, during this period, Gain selector 140 selects the yield value of secondary signal gain as the yield value of system signal gain.Yield value as secondary signal gain reduces that speed outputs signal with second, slicing C start-up time and slicing amplitude relevant, can change in real time, at this not to concrete values.In addition, as can be seen from figure we, slicing C start-up time will much smaller than A start-up time (first output signal exceed amplitude limit amplitude to the time controlled in amplitude limit amplitude, start-up time, A was generally several milliseconds to a few tens of milliseconds).
When the second output signal clipping distortion is eliminated, the second time schedule controller 132 increases the yield value of secondary signal gain until amplitude limit yield value according to slicing D release time preset (time by the amplitude that second outputs signal controls in amplitude limit amplitude from slicing amplitude).As can be seen from the figure, in start-up time A, the yield value of the first signal gain is in the state of reduction always, and the yield value of secondary signal gain first can reduce (slicing C start-up time in) and increases (in slicing D release time) again, and in slicing D release time, the yield value that there will be a bit of time secondary signal gain is less than the signal gain value of the first signal (Gain selector 140 selects the yield value of secondary signal gain as system signal gain), the yield value of secondary signal gain afterwards increases to the yield value that is greater than the first signal gain and is in the state (Gain selector 140 selects the yield value of the first signal gain as system signal gain) being greater than the first signal gain always, as shown in Figure 7, until there is the situation of clipping distortion next time, clipping control module 130 adjusts secondary signal gain again, circulate with this.
Above execution mode is improved, obtain present embodiment, as shown in Figure 8, in the present embodiment, gain regulation module 110 comprises a variable gain amplifier 111, compression control amplifier 112, comparator 113 and the first time schedule controller 114, wherein, variable gain amplifier 111 is connected with Gain selector 140, compression control amplifier 112 is connected with variable gain amplifier 111, comparator 113 is connected with variable gain amplifier 111 and compression control amplifier 112 respectively, first time schedule controller 114 is connected with Gain selector 140 and comparator 113 respectively.In the course of the work, the system signal gain that first variable gain amplifier 111 exports according to Gain selector 140 is amplified input signal, exports the first output signal; Compression control amplifier 112 adjusts reference voltage Vref after receiving this first output signal immediately; Then, the first amplitude outputed signal and reference voltage Vref are compared; Finally, the first time schedule controller 114 adjusts the first signal gain according to the comparative result of comparator 113, and by the first signal gain input gain selector 140 after adjustment.
Specifically, as shown in Figure 9, in compression control amplifier 112: when the amplitude of the first output signal is less than compression threshold threshold value V1, compression control amplifier 112 is drawn high with reference to voltage Vref, now reference voltage Vref is inoperative, compress amplitude limiter in this process amplify input signal and export, namely output signal (comprising the first output signal and the second output signal) linear with input signal; When the amplitude of the first output signal is between compression threshold threshold value V1 and amplitude limit threshold threshold value V2, compression controller, according to the compression ratio generating reference voltage Vref preset, compresses voice signal; When the amplitude of the first output signal is greater than amplitude limit threshold threshold value V2, compression controller, with reference to the voltage Vref constant control magnitude of voltage corresponding when compressing amplitude limiter 100 output violent change (amplitude of the second output signal is in amplitude limit amplitude), carries out amplitude limit to input signal.
Compression control amplifier 112 is after adjusting reference voltage Vref, and comparator 113 compares with the amplitude and reference voltage Vref being about to the first output signal.Specifically, when the amplitude of the first output signal is greater than the reference voltage Vref of compression control amplifier 112 output, sends and enter A instruction to the first start-up time time schedule controller 114; When the amplitude of the first output signal is less than the reference voltage Vref of compression control amplifier 112 output, sends and enter B instruction to the first release time time schedule controller 114.
Subsequently, in the first time schedule controller 114: when the first time schedule controller 114 receive enter A instruction start-up time time, first time schedule controller 114, according to A start-up time preset, reduces the yield value of the first signal gain, to control in amplitude limit amplitude by the second output signal; When the first time schedule controller 114 receive enter B instruction release time time, first time schedule controller 114 is according to B release time (generally at hundreds of millisecond by several seconds) preset, increase the yield value of the first signal gain, the first signal gain with input signal change as shown in Figure 7.
Based on above description, in the present invention, detect in public address module (public address equipment) whether occur slicing by distortion detector, if there is, then at once reduce secondary signal gain start-up time by the second time schedule controller according to the slicing preset, and using the secondary signal gain after reduction as system signal gain now, reach the object of elimination clipping distortion.After clipping distortion is removed, increase secondary signal gain immediately, the second output signal is finally controlled to export in amplitude limit amplitude.Thus automatically eliminate in the second output signal due to the clipping distortion that start-up time is long or occur due to the public address module reduced dynamic range caused during the application conditions changes such as output loading change weight, supply voltage step-down, temperature uprise, improve the output tonequality of public address module, improve Consumer's Experience.
It should be noted that above-described embodiment all can independent assortment as required.The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention; it should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, under the premise without departing from the principles of the invention; can also make some improvements and modifications, these improvements and modifications also should be considered as protection scope of the present invention.
