摘要： In some embodiments, a method for monitoring speakers within an audio playback system (e.g., movie theater) environment. In typical embodiments, the monitoring method assumes that initial characteristics of the speakers (e.g., a room response for each of the speakers) have been determined at an initial time, and relies on one or more microphones positioned in the environment to perform a status check on each of the speakers to identify whether a change to at least one characteristic of any of the speakers has occurred since the initial time. In other embodiments, the method processes data indicative of output of a microphone to monitor audience reaction to an audiovisual program. Other aspects include a system configured (e.g., programmed) to perform any embodiment of the inventive method, and a computer readable medium (e.g., a disc) which stores code for implementing any embodiment of the inventive method.

摘要： A signal processing system comprising components such as split-band perceptual coders can receive a peak amplitude limited input audio signal and can process the signal in such a manner that the processed signal preserves the apparent loudness of the input signal but is no longer peak-amplitude limited. In one embodiment, upsampling is used in estimating the resultant peak amplitude and gain factors established in response to the estimated peak amplitude are applied to one or more frequency subbands of the processed signal.

摘要： The invention relates in general to low bit-rate encoding and decoding of information such as audio information. More particularly, the invention relates to computationally efficient adaptive bit allocation and quantization of encoded information useful in high-quality low bit-rate coding systems.In one embodiment, an audio split-band encoder splits an input signal into frequency subband signals, quantizes the subband signals according to values established by an allocation function, and assembles the quantized subband signals into an encoded signal. The allocation function establishes allocation values in accordance with psychoacoustic principles based upon a masking threshold. The masking threshold is established by estimating the power spectral density (PSD) of the input signal, generating an excitation pattern by applying a spreading function to the PSD, adjusting the excitation pattern by an amount equal to a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) offset sufficient to achieve psychoacoustic masking, comparing the level of the adjusted pattern to the threshold of hearing and generating a masking threshold which is equal to the larger of the two. The spreading function may be implemented by applying one or more IIR filters to the input signal PSD.

摘要： Frequency-domain techniques are used for adaptive equalization that is responsive to spectral magnitude characteristics but not sensitive to phase characteristics of system response. Signal correlation may be used to improve adaptation accuracy when significant levels of ambient sounds are present. A preferred filter implementation uses convolution-based block transforms and cross-fade windows.
