Definitions
- the present invention relates to audio transport in a digital broadcasting system in which services can be transported as a continuous stream or in data packets.
- the Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) system which has been developed to allow an efficient utilization of frequency bands, uses a completely digital transmission path.
- the system is designed to replace the analogue broadcasting system commonly used at present, which is based on the use of frequency modulation.
- DAB defines a digital radio channel based on multiple carriers, which is applicable for the transmission of both audio and data services.
- a completely digital transmission channel may be either a continuous data stream channel or a packet channel. Packet transmission is more flexible and allows easier transmission of data units of finite length.
- ETSI European Telecommunication Standards Institute
- Fig. 1 the highest level of abstraction in the DAB system is called ensemble, Fig. 1. It contains all services existing in a given fre ⁇ quency band. A change from one ensemble to another is effected by tuning to a different frequency band, just as one changes channels in current FM radio reception.
- the ensemble is divided into services, exemplified in Fig. 1 by Alpha Radio 1, Beta Radio and Alpha Radio 2.
- there may be data services although they are not shown in the figure.
- Each service is further di ⁇ vided into service components .
- a service component can be transported either via an audio channel or via a data channel.
- FM radio contains only one service and one service component (audio) in each channel.
- the trans ⁇ mission frame whose duration is 24 ms or 96 ms depend ⁇ ing on the DAB mode, consists of three chronologically consecutive parts.
- the first part is a synchronizing channel, which contains no service information.
- the next part is a fast information channel FIC, which has a mode-specific fixed length.
- the last part is a main service channel MSC, which contains all the subchannels.
- the position, size and number of subchannels within the MSC may vary, but the size of the MSC is constant.
- the MSC contains a maximum of 63 different audio and/or data subchannels.
- the subchannels are numbered on the basis of a so-called sub-Channel Id from 0 to 62.
- the MSC may contain an auxiliary information channel AIC, which has a fixed channel number 63.
- the AIC may contain the same type of information as the FIC.
- the MSC information is transmitted using time interleaving such that in DAB mode I the MSC part of the frame is divided into four parts and these are placed in successive transmission frames. These parts are known as CIF (Common Interleaved Frame) , so the MSC part of the frame in mode I contains four CIFs. In other modes no inter ⁇ leaving is used, so the MSC is the same as the CIF.
- CIF Common Interleaved Frame
- the service supplier may also provide data services and e.g. multimedia services.
- the DAB operator produces a DAB transmission signal, which consists of successive transmission frames such as those presented in the lower part of Fig. 1.
- the information channel FIC and the channel MSC containing the audio and data services are separated from each other from the transmission frame.
- the subchannels are separated and channel decoded and then passed on for further processing.
- the user From the in ⁇ formation in the received FIC channel, the user will know which services are included in the ensemble re ⁇ ceived and is thus able to select a desired service or services.
- subchannel service components ac ⁇ cording to the application programme, it is possible to compose e.g. a desired multimedia service.
- the data is transmitted in packets as illustrated by Fig. 2, consisting of a header field, a data field and a checksum.
- the meanings of the fields are in accor ⁇ dance with the DAB standard.
- the packet header contains packet length data (Pkt Len) , a continuity index (Cont Ind) , first/last packet data (First/Last) , an address (Pkt Address) identifying the service component, a com ⁇ mand (Command) and the actual data field length (Data Len) .
- the data field contains the actual data to be transmitted plus fill bits if required. At the end is the packet checksum (Pkt CRC) .
- a so-called data group is formed.
- Fig. 2B The packets are formed at the transmitting end from the data group by simply cutting it into sections and placing each section into the data field of a data packet.
- Gen ⁇ erally a data group consists of the data fields of a number of consecutive packets transmitted. In the sim ⁇ plest case, one packet is sufficient to form a data group.
- the data group is formed as illustrated by Fig. 3.
- the meanings of the abbreviations of the data group header and session header fields are as indicated in the table below:
- EXT FL extension flag LAST FL last CRC FL CRC flag SEG NUM segment number SES FL session flags RFA reserved for future applications DG TYPE data group type LEN IND length of next address field CONT IND continuity index ADDR FIELD end user's address REP IND repetition index EXT FIELD extension field
- a continuous audio stream is transmitted in frames having a structure as illustrated by Fig. 4.
- 16-bit PCM coded audio samples coming at a frequency of 48 kHz are divided into sub-bands and the samples of the sub-bands are encoded into the audio frame by making use of the masking effect of the human ear so that the incoming bit rate 768 kbit/s is reduced e.g. in the case of a mono channel to a rate of about 100 kbit/s.
- the four-byte header of the frame contains information intended for the decoders in the receiver, such as synchronization data, bit rate data, and sam ⁇ pling frequency data.
- a bit allocation field coming af ⁇ ter the checksum indicates how the bits are allocated to each one of the audio field sub-bands containing 36 coded samples and which bits have been removed from the samples in making use of the masking effect.
- a Scale Factor Selection Information field indicates how the group of audio samples has been scaled (normalized) in the decoder. After this there is a field that contains the audio bits proper. The information in it corresponds to 24 ms of audio. The field contains 36 encoded sub ⁇ band audio samples divided into twelve triplets, each of which contains 3 sub-band samples. Thus, four triplets corresponds to 12 ms of audio. Next there are fill bits if the number of audio bits amounts to less than the audio field length.
- PAD Programme Associated Data
- the audio part of multimedia is proposed to be transmitted in audio frames, yet there may be certain reasons to transmit audio in packet mode as well.
- Packet mode transmission could in principle be applied e.g. to send audio files, which would first be stored in the memory of the receiver and then played back via the speakers at the appropriate time during the multimedia presentation.
- This type of audio transport has the ad ⁇ vantage that the file can be transmitted at any bit rate, so the transport rate need not be the same as the fixed bit rate which is used in the transmission of audio frames or an audio stream and which has been as- signed a number of allowed bit rate values in the DAB specification.
- a disadvantage with this type of transmission is that the audio file has to be stored in memory if the transport rate is lower than the audio stream bit rate, or it needs to be buffered if the transport rate is higher than the audio stream bit rate.
- playback cannot be started immediately upon recep ⁇ tion of the file, whereas in the case of buffering, playback can be started immediately.
- the disad- vantage is not a real one, because in most of the possi ⁇ ble practical applications there is no need to transmit an audio file at the audio stream bit rate.
- the real problem is that the audio stream in audio frames cannot be transmitted in packet mode because there is no mecha ⁇ nism for indicating the audio frame boundaries.
- Real time packet transmission here means that the bit rate is the same in the transmission of both the audio stream and the audio packets, and that it would be possible in some way to extract from the pack ⁇ ets the same information that is contained in the audio frames.
- This principle could be applied e.g. to locate bit errors in audio frames by comparing the received audio frame with the checksum CRC of the received pack ⁇ ets that carry the same audio information and with the checksum CRC of the data group formed from the packets. In this way, the audio samples in the audio frames would end up being covered by CRC checking.
- packets for this purpose would involve extra auxiliary signalling of audio, which might be acceptable as a temporary solu ⁇ tion. If audio transmission is to be protected on a lasting basis and as efficiently as packet transmission is, it would of course be preferable to improve the er ⁇ ror protection of the audio bits in audio frames di ⁇ rectly.
- the definition describes the in ⁇ terruption of an active broadcast-type service by an an ⁇ nouncement, but the transmission profile for the an ⁇ nouncement can only be defined by specifying the serv- ices to be interrupted. There is no way to address the announcement to a given user group only.
- the object of the present invention is to achieve audio transport in packet mode so as to allow both addressed audio transport and indication of audio frames in a packet stream.
- audio is transmitted over a packet channel as a file.
- An audio frame is placed in the data field of a data group.
- one segment in the file transfer pro ⁇ tocol corresponds to one audio frame.
- a data group is assembled in the normal manner, so the data field of the data group will contain a file segment, which in this case is an audio f ame.
- a file transfer protocol needs to be used. Since the transfer can be performed at any speed, the frames have to be stored or buffered in the receiver prior to presentation.
- the audio frames are transmitted over a packet channel in the form of a continuous stream.
- An audio frame is placed in the data field of a data group.
- the transmission speed is exactly the same as the audio channel bit rate.
- individual data groups are transmitted at exactly the correct pace, so the transmission consists of an endless train of data groups. Therefore, no file trans- fer protocol is needed. No buffering needs to be used, but the receiver presents the audio frames directly as it receives data groups from the packet channel.
- the invention is illustrated by the attached draw- ings, in which
- Fig. 1 presents a known DAB hierarchy
- Fig. 2a presents the structure of DAB packets
- Fig. 2b shows how a data group is formed from packets
- Fig. 3 presents the structure of a data group
- Fig. 4 presents a DAB audio frame
- Fig. 5 illustrates the use of an IDG.
- the audio frames are transmitted as an audio file, in other words, the audio, which has a beginning, a duration and an end, constitutes one file.
- the file is divided into seg- ments and each segment is placed in the data field of a data group.
- the protocol will be briefly described be ⁇ low. According to the invention, a segment is exactly equivalent to an audio frame.
- the file transfer protocol can be implemented ac ⁇ cording to the general basic principle proposed by the Eureka-147 project, in which each segment forms one data group. Successive segments of the file are numbered se- quentially so that the first segment number in the ses ⁇ sion header is 0. The last segment of the file is indi ⁇ cated by a flag in the LAST field of the session header of the data group formed from it .
- the receiver receives the data packets and forms data groups out of them. If its checksum indicates that bit errors occurred during the transfer, the receiver picks up the data packets of the relevant data group from the retransmission of the file.
- the Eureka-147 project includes a proposi ⁇ tion that an additional special Information Data Group (IDG) be created.
- IDG Information Data Group
- Fig. 5 illustrates the idea of the IDG in file transfer.
- One IDG is associated with only one file. It is placed at least at the beginning of the packet stream relating to the file, i.e. at the beginning of the file transfer, but IDGs can also be placed in the middle of the packet stream, in other words, the IDG may appear at any point during the file transfer or the IDG can be transmitted some time before the actual file transfer, so it can be used to announce a file transfer before it is started.
- files X, Y and Z are transferred and the IDGs referring to them are identified by corre ⁇ sponding letters .
- the file descriptor can be used to give the receiver the required detailed information about the file to be transferred.
- the file descriptor includes a field containing so- called transfer parameters (T-parameters) .
- T-parameters transfer parameters
- a T-parameter called File Type declares the type of the file, so the application software of the receiver is able to decide which algorithm to use for file analysis and interpreta- tion of its contents.
- DAB audio a new file type pa ⁇ rameter called "DAB audio" be added to let the receiver know that the incoming file announced by the IDG is an audio file.
- the informa ⁇ tion about the services is transmitted over the fast in ⁇ formation channel (FIC) . It is used to announce the lo ⁇ cation and nature of the service components.
- FOC fast in ⁇ formation channel
- a service description for each service is placed in a separate field, which contains a parameter field called service component description.
- One of the parameters is service component type and this parameter is set to File Trans ⁇ fer.
- the receiver From the FIC channel information the receiver thus learns that a file is being transferred and from the IDG information that the file is an audio file. The receiver is therefore able to receive the file, decode the audio and present it. Depending on the file transfer speed, the receiver must either store the audio file or use buffering for it .
- the audio frames are transmitted in packet mode, yet as a continu ⁇ ous audio stream.
- the transfer speed is exactly the same as it would be if audio frames were used.
- each audio frame is first assigned to a data group, then packets are formed from the data group and transmitted.
- the audio frame also contains the PAD.
- the transmission is not a file transfer procedure as in the first embodiment, so no file transfer protocol is needed. Therefore, no information data groups IDG are needed, either.
- An audio data group may never cross the CIF boundary, so the entire data group must be trans- ferred in a single common interleaved frame CIF.
- the data group must be transferred in a single transmission frame. If repetition is used at the data group level, then the data group and all the repe ⁇ titions of it must be transmitted in a single CIF, i.e. each repetition is transmitted in a single CIF.
- a session header is not necessarily needed, but it is advisable to use it because it contains an address field ADDR FIELD, which is intended for the end user's address. By means of this address, an audio transmission can be addressed to a de ⁇ sired user group.
- ADDR FIELD address field
- the SEG NUM field is used as a counter that is incre ⁇ mented by one on every data group. This helps the re ⁇ DCver keep in synchronism, because if a data group fails to be transmitted or is defective, the playback is delayed by the duration of an audio frame.
- the flag in the LAST FL field is always zero because the transmis ⁇ sion is a continuous audio stream, albeit in packet mode.
- the data group can be interleaved with other packet mode service components in the same subchannel, but the data group must still fit into a single CIF. If a data group is interleaved with other service compo ⁇ nents carrying audio data groups in the same subchannel, then all the data groups must be transmitted in a single CIF.
- the appli ⁇ cant proposes that the service component type parameter "DAB Audio Stream" be sent in the service component de ⁇ scription field in the fast information channel FIC.
