Description

本発明は、オーディオ信号を無線でスピーカに伝送して再生するオーディオ再生装置に関する。   The present invention relates to an audio playback apparatus that wirelessly transmits an audio signal to a speaker for playback.

例えば、ステレオ2チャネル(チャンネルとも言う)やマルチチャネルのオーディオ信号を無線でスピーカに伝送して再生することにより、スピーカまでの配線を省略することができたり、また、既存のスピーカより大きなパワーのスピーカを使用することができる。この場合、再生しようとするオーディオ信号のすべての帯域をそのまま、又は、複数の帯域に分割してアナログ無線伝送する。さらに、微弱入力においても復調したオーディオ信号が途切れることなく継続して聴くことができる再生装置としては、下記の特許文献1に記載されているワイヤレス再生装置がある。
特開平9−116979号公報
For example, stereo 2 channel (also called channel) or multi-channel audio signals are transmitted wirelessly to a speaker and played back, so that wiring to the speaker can be omitted, or the power of the speaker is larger than that of an existing speaker. A speaker can be used. In this case, all the bands of the audio signal to be reproduced are transmitted as they are or divided into a plurality of bands for analog wireless transmission. Furthermore, as a playback device that can continuously listen to a demodulated audio signal without interruption even at a weak input, there is a wireless playback device described in Patent Document 1 below.
JP-A-9-16979

しかしながら、特に高品位のオーディオ信号をリアルタイム伝送する際には常時占有するアナログ無線伝送帯域が大きく、共存する他の無線機器に影響を与えるなど、実用上の大きな問題となっている。有限の無線周波帯域の中において、オーディオ信号をリアルタイムでアナログ無線伝送する再生装置と他の無線機器が共存する場合、前記再生装置が常時占有する帯域を確保した上で、残りの部分を他の機器が利用するため、前記常時占有する帯域はなるべく小さい方が好ましい。   However, particularly when a high-quality audio signal is transmitted in real time, the analog radio transmission band that is always occupied is large, which has a large practical problem such as affecting other coexisting wireless devices. In a finite radio frequency band, when a playback device that performs analog wireless transmission of audio signals in real time and other wireless devices coexist, the bandwidth that the playback device always occupies is secured, and the remaining part is transferred to another Since the device uses it, it is preferable that the band always occupied is as small as possible.

本発明は以上の点に鑑みてなされたもので、有限の無線帯域の中で他の無線機器との共存を考えた場合にも問題となりにくいアナログ無線伝送を行うことができるオーディオ再生装置を提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and provides an audio reproducing apparatus capable of performing analog wireless transmission that is not problematic even when coexistence with other wireless devices is considered in a limited wireless band. The purpose is to do.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of an audio playback apparatus according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a flowchart for explaining processing of the audio playback apparatus of FIG.

図1において、このオーディオ再生装置は再生装置本体1及びサブウーハー装置2より構成されている。再生装置本体1はこの例ではノートパソコンであり、L、Rのチャネルをそれぞれ再生するスピーカ10a及び10bと、内部又は外部機器の記憶装置などから取り出したオーディオ信号のうち、ある一定周波数(第1の周波数)以上(0Hz〜20kHzのうちの所定周波数、例えば200Hz以上)の成分を取り出してスピーカ10a及び10bに出力する高周波成分抽出装置12と、オーディオ信号のうち、前記一定周波数と同一又は異なる周波数である第2の周波数より低い周波数であって、概ね1kHz以下、好ましくは500Hz以下の低周波成分を取り出す低周波成分抽出装置13と、低周波成分抽出装置13により取り出された低周波成分のみをサブウーハー装置2にアナログ無線送信するアナログ無線送信装置11より構成されている。サブウーハー装置2は低周波成分のみをアナログ無線受信するアナログ無線受信装置20と、アナログ無線受信装置20で受信した前記低周波成分を再生する低周波成分再生装置(サブウーハー・スピーカ)21により構成される。なお再生装置本体1とサブウーハー装置2は音楽などを再生する同一の部屋内などに配置されるものとする。   In FIG. 1, the audio reproducing apparatus is composed of a reproducing apparatus main body 1 and a subwoofer apparatus 2. The reproduction apparatus main body 1 is a notebook personal computer in this example, and has a certain fixed frequency (first frequency) among audio signals extracted from speakers 10a and 10b for reproducing L and R channels, respectively, and storage devices of internal or external devices. Frequency) or higher (a predetermined frequency of 0 Hz to 20 kHz, for example, 200 Hz or higher), and outputs to the speakers 10a and 10b, and the audio signal has the same or different frequency from the constant frequency. The low-frequency component extraction device 13 that extracts a low-frequency component that is lower than the second frequency that is approximately 1 kHz or less, preferably 500 Hz or less, and only the low-frequency component extracted by the low-frequency component extraction device 13 It comprises an analog wireless transmission device 11 that performs analog wireless transmission to the subwoofer device 2.

In subsequent step 302, only the low frequency component is transmitted by the analog wireless transmission device 11. In subsequent step 303, only the low frequency component is received by the analog wireless reception device 20 on the subwoofer device 2 side and supplied to the low frequency component reproduction device 21. In step 304, the low frequency component audio signal is reproduced by the low frequency component reproduction device 21 on the subwoofer device 2 side. When step 202 and step 304 are completed, it is determined in step 102 whether or not it is necessary to continue the reproduction. If necessary, the process returns to step 101.
