Description

Audio coding method and equipment with squelch
Technical field
The present invention relates generally to be applicable to the audio signal processing apparatus of the digital audio communication system in the moving communicating field of pocket telephone etc. for example, more particularly, relate to noise suppressing function or echo inhibit feature in the audio coding.
Background technology
In general, in the moving communicating field of for example pocket telephone, the Applied Digital audio communication system.The digital audio communication system adopts audio coding (compressed encoding) to transmit the voice data of compression.
In moving communicating field, typical audio coding method is the low bitrate coding method that is called CELP (Code Excited Linear Prediction).When audio coding adopts this method, sound signal not only usually, and comprise that the sound signal of the noise component that is called the high frequency environment noise also often is encoded.
As known, when the sound signal that comprises noise and echo component is encoded, produce second-rate coding audio data.For this reason, the audio coding circuit adopts the noise suppression circuit that is called noise eliminator, so that only export the sound signal that has suppressed noise component.In addition, echo suppression circuit is used to import the sound signal that has suppressed echo component such as echo eliminator, voice switch.
Noise eliminator determines wherein not import any sound signal, the i.e. state of an input environment noise signal.Noise eliminator is analyzed the feature of ambient noise signal under this state.Subsequently, during sound signal and noise component mixing, noise eliminator utilizes this feature to suppress noise component.
Echo eliminator determines that wherein sound signal arrives the take over party, but does not export the state of any sound signal, i.e. take over party's single session state from transmit leg.Echo eliminator is understood under this state, returns the sound property of transmit leg from the take over party.Subsequently, by utilizing the sound property of understanding, noise eliminator suppresses to be blended in the echo component in the transmit leg signal.Voice switch compares the signal power of take over party and transmit leg, by the lower side of loss power input, suppresses echo component.
The audio coding scheme of using in the present pocket telephone is confined to the frequency band that sound signal mainly exists.In recent years, carrying out in the frequency band of being wider than the sound signal frequency band, realizing the standardization effort of the wideband encoding scheme of audio coding.This wideband encoding scheme adopts CELP, needs noise eliminator and echo eliminator or voice switch.
Using noise eliminator and adopting in the audio signal processor of wideband encoding scheme, be divided into through the digital audio and video signals of noise eliminator that power is lower than sound signal and unessential high-frequency audio signal component and other low-frequency audio signal component with regard to information.Under the specified coding mode, the high-frequency audio signal component is optional, and it is known to remove the method for this component from coding audio data.For example, AMR-WB (AMR-WB) coder by 3GPP (third generation cooperative relationship project) standard code can be used as coded system.
In fact, in a coded system of the coding audio data of output low frequency audio signal components (for example, transfer rate is different from the 23.85kbps among the AMR-WB) under, noise eliminator does not need that the digital audio and video signals component of the full range band of exporting from A/D converter 11 is carried out squelch and handles, and only needs low-frequency audio signal component execution squelch is handled.
Usually, noise eliminator comprises digital signal processor (DSP).So, when noise eliminator is handled the digital audio and video signals component of full range band, when realizing the noise eliminator function,, need excessive data processing amount and memory capacity for DSP.
This is suitable for echo eliminator equally, wishes to realize required data processing amount and the memory capacity of echo inhibit feature improving Audio Signal Processing efficient by reducing.
Note having proposed a kind of method that reduces calculated amount and essential memory capacity, wherein only carry out the Echo Cancellation of low-frequency audio signal component, and do not carry out the Echo Cancellation (for example, referring to Japanese patent application KOKAI open No.8-65211) of full range audio signal components.But this method is not still eliminated the high frequency echo component.
Summary of the invention
According to one embodiment of present invention, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind ofly, can improve the audio coding equipment of audio coding treatment effeciency by reducing required data processing amount and the memory capacity of noise eliminator in the audio coding.
Audio coding equipment comprises the high-frequency audio scrambler to the high-frequency audio component coding of digital audio and video signals, reduce following sampling (downsampling) unit of the sampling frequency of the digital audio and video signals identical with the digital audio and video signals of high-frequency audio coder processes, suppress to be included in down the noise suppressor of the noise component in the signal that sampling unit handles and to the low frequency audio coder of the signal encoding of noise suppressor processing.

(first embodiment)
Fig. 1 is the block scheme of expression according to the major part of the audio codec of first embodiment.
As shown in fig. 1, in general, the equipment of present embodiment is made of coded system and playback system (decode system), coded system produces coding audio data (TX) according to digital audio and video signals, playback system is decoded to the coding audio data (TX) that is generally held in the storer 15, thereby obtains initial sound signal.
Coded system has the A/D converter 11 that the sound signal by microphone 10 inputs is converted to digital audio and video signals, noise eliminator 12, scrambler 13 and multiplexer (data multiplex unit) 14.On the other hand, playback system has loudspeaker 20, D/A converter 21, demoder (audio decoding circuit) 22 and demultiplexer 23.Notice that the playback system shown in Fig. 1 is identical with conventional system, so omit explanation to it.In coded system, noise eliminator 12, scrambler 13 and multiplexer 14 are realized by digital signal processor (DSP) usually.
Scrambler 13 is the compressed encodings that utilize pre-defined algorithm (for example CELP) combine digital sound signal, and produces the audio coding circuit of coding audio data.Scrambler 13 is broadband (for example AMR-WB) audio coding circuit, and is divided into low frequency audio coder 130 and high-frequency audio scrambler (below be also referred to as the H scrambler) 131.Multiplexer 14 converts the coding audio data that scrambler 13 produces to conform to the characteristic of transmission path, modulator-demodular unit, error correction unit etc. form, and the data after the conversion are exported to storer 15.
According to the mode signal (HM) of the operator scheme that scrambler 13 is set, the noise suppressing function of noise eliminator 12 is enabled/is forbidden in control.This mode signal is from, for example CPU 100 of pocket telephone output, and is used to determine whether to enable high-frequency audio scrambler (H scrambler) 131.For for simplicity, suppose when " HM=1 " (for example, when transfer rate is 23.85kbps among the AMR-WB), H scrambler 131 is activated, when " HM=0 " (for example, when transfer rate is different from 23.85kbps among the AMR-WB), H scrambler 131 is disabled.
When " HM=1 ", noise eliminator 12 is activated, and suppresses from the noise component of the digital audio and video signals of A/D converter 11 outputs.On the other hand, when " HM=0 ", noise eliminator 12 is skipped noise suppression process, allows digital audio and video signals (VS) from A/D converter 11 outputs through noise eliminator.
Low frequency audio coder 130 has module 200 and the noise eliminator 203 that comprises take a sample down (downsample) unit 201 and low frequency scrambler (L scrambler) 202, as shown in Figure 2.
201 times samplings of following sampling unit reduce the sample of predetermined number, so that the digital audio and video signals (VS) from A/D converter 11 outputs is carried out the low frequency processing.
When " HM=0 ", the digital audio and video signals (VS) of 201 times samplings of 203 pairs of following sampling units of noise eliminator carries out squelch to be handled, and the signal after handling is exported to L scrambler 202.On the other hand, when " HM=1 ", noise eliminator 203 is skipped the squelch of the digital audio and video signals (VS) of 201 times samplings of sampling unit is down handled, and directly described digital audio and video signals (VS) is passed to L scrambler 202.
(operation of first embodiment)
The operation of the coded system of present embodiment is described below with reference to Fig. 1 and 2.
For example, the CPU of pocket telephone output is provided with the mode signal HM of the operator scheme (HM=0/1) of scrambler 13.A/D converter 11 converts the sound signal by microphone 10 inputs to digital audio and video signals.
Suppose the operator scheme (HM=1) enable high-frequency audio scrambler (H scrambler) 131 (for example, when transfer rate is 23.85kbps among the AMR-WB) is set.When " HM=1 ", noise eliminator 12 is activated, and suppresses from the noise component of the digital audio and video signals of A/D converter 11 outputs, and this signal is exported to scrambler 13.
In scrambler 13,131 pairs of high-frequency audio signals of H scrambler carry out encoding process.On the other hand, in low frequency audio coder 130, when " HM=1 ", noise eliminator 203 is skipped the squelch of the digital audio and video signals (VS) of 201 times samplings of sampling unit is down handled, and directly it is passed to L scrambler 202.The squelch of the noise eliminator 12 that sampling digital audio and video signals (VS) has experienced previous stage under noting is handled.The output of H scrambler 131 and L scrambler 202 (coding audio data) is multiplexed by multiplexer 14, and multiplexed data is stored in the storer 15.
On the other hand, suppose forbidding high-frequency audio scrambler (H scrambler) 131 operator scheme (HM=0) of (for example, when transfer rate is different from 23.85kbps among the AMR-WB) is set.When " HM=0 ", noise eliminator 12 is skipped squelch and is handled, and allows digital audio and video signals (VS) from A/D converter 11 outputs by it.H scrambler 131 is disabled.
In low frequency audio coder 130, when " HM=0 ", the digital audio and video signals (VS) of 201 times samplings of 203 pairs of following sampling units of noise eliminator carries out squelch to be handled, and the signal after handling is exported to L scrambler 202.L scrambler 202 produces the low frequency coding audio data, and outputs it to multiplexer 14.
As mentioned above, according to present embodiment, when the operator scheme forbidding H of coded system scrambler 131 (HM=0), the noise eliminator 12 that inserted before scrambler 13 is also disabled.So, pass through noise eliminator 12 from the digital audio and video signals (VS) of A/D converter 11 outputs, and be provided for the low frequency audio coder 130 of scrambler 13.
In low frequency audio coder 130, when " HM=0 ", noise eliminator 203 is activated, and the digital audio and video signals (VS) of 201 times samplings of sampling unit is down carried out squelch handle, and the signal after handling is exported to L scrambler 202.In this manner, low frequency audio coder 130 produces the low frequency coding audio data according to the low frequency digital sound signal that suppresses noise component.
So under the operator scheme of forbidding high-frequency audio scrambler 131, the noise eliminator 12 that inserted before scrambler 13 is disabled.Thereby, can reduce the data processing amount and the memory capacity that realize among the required DSP of noise eliminator function.On the other hand, in low frequency audio coder 130,, therefore can under the situation that does not reduce sound quality, produce the low frequency coding audio data because low-frequency noise canceller 203 is activated.In this case, 203 pairs of following sampling digital audio and video signals of low-frequency noise canceller (its sample number is reduced) carry out the squelch processing.Thereby, and enable high frequency noise canceller 12 and compare, can further reduce data processing amount and memory capacity among the required DSP of the function that realizes noise eliminator 203.

In scrambler 30, low frequency audio coder 300 has low frequency scrambler (L scrambler) 400, following sampling unit 401 and low-frequency noise canceller (LNC) 402, as shown in Figure 4.401 times samplings of following sampling unit reduce the sample of predetermined number, so that handle carrying out low frequency from the digital audio-frequency data (VS) of A/D converter 11 outputs.LNC 402 carries out squelch and handles, the main low frequency environments noise that suppresses from the digital audio and video signals (VS) of taking a sample down.L scrambler 400 produces the low frequency coding audio data, and outputs it to multiplexer 14 according to the digital audio and video signals (following sampled signal) that experiences the squelch of LNC 402.
On the other hand, high-frequency audio scrambler 301 has high frequency encoder (H scrambler) 500 and high frequency noise canceller (HNC) 501.Operator scheme (HM=1/0) according to previous mode signal HM is provided with determines whether to enable H scrambler 500.That is, when " HM=1 ", H scrambler 500 is activated (for example, when transfer rate is 23.85kbps among the AMR-WB), and the high-frequency audio signal from the digital audio and video signals (VS) of A/D converter 11 outputs is carried out encoding process.
HNC 501 carries out squelch and handles, so that suppress the high frequency environment noise.The output of HNC501 and L scrambler 400 (coding audio data) is multiplexed by multiplexer 14, and multiplexed data is stored in the storer 15.
When " HM=0 ", H scrambler 500 disabled (for example, when transfer rate is different from 23.85kbps among the AMR-WB).Under this operator scheme, low frequency audio coder 300 is enabled separately, and the output encoder voice data is as 14 the output from L scrambler 400 to multiplexer.
As mentioned above, according to present embodiment, when the operator scheme forbidding H of coded system scrambler 500 (HM=0), high-frequency audio scrambler 301 is disabled, and low frequency audio coder 301 is enabled separately.Thereby, when " HM=0 ", only enable the LNC 402 that is included in the low frequency audio coder 300, the digital audio and video signals (VS) of 401 times samplings of sampling unit is down carried out squelch handle.So, under the operator scheme of forbidding high-frequency audio scrambler 301, can reduce the data processing amount and the memory capacity that realize among the required DSP of noise eliminator function.
