2 Overview Audio Signal Processing Dolby Audio Signal Processing Basics Sampling What is an audio signal? Signal Processing Domains Case Study Headphone Virtualisation Frequency Response FIR filtering Computational Complexity
3 Audio Signal Processing Dolby
4 Audio Signal Processing Dolby Cinema Delivering channel based audio Distribute movies to multiple screens in a multiplex Cinemas use speaker arrays rather than single speakers so processing required to fill the arrays from single channel feeds Rendering immersive audio Dolby Atmos Cinema soundtrack is express as individual objects and locations - in every cinema the movie is renderer for that specific cinema s speaker locations Speaker equalisation & protection Process the audio sent to each speaker to compensate for the electro-acoustic properties of the speaker. (e.g., frequency response, distortion characteristics) Ensure that audio sent to the speakers doesn t over driver the speaker, which would damage them. High channel count amplifiers
5 Audio Signal Processing Dolby Broadcast / Home Theatre Compression of Audio for Streaming / DVD / Blu-ray Disc Perceptual audio coding (case study later) Matrix encoding (Pro-logic) Multi-channel audio coding Multiple languages Multiple playback formats (stereo / 5.1 / etc) Broadcast end-to-end Capture, mixing, coding, transmission, playback AV Receivers (AVRs), Set Top Boxes (STBs), Digital Media Adapters (DMAs) Games consoles
6 Audio Signal Processing Dolby Personal Audio Devices Mobile phones (feature phones & smart phones) Tablets Music players PCs Same issues as Home Theatre, but usually more limited acoustic hardware (i.e. cheap speakers) Headphone playback is a big use case (case study later)
7 Audio Signal Processing Dolby Voice Processing Many of the same basic challenges but because speech has some specifically different characteristics from general audio, different solutions exist Speech coders use different approaches than audio codecs What makes a good codec is measured differently The transmission bandwidths used for the data is much more limited Conferencing & Telephony
8 Audio Signal Processing Basics
9 Audio Signal Processing Basics Sampling Digital signals have samples which are discrete in time and magnitude Process of converting a continuous signal to the digital domain is Sampling Two key questions when sampling are: How often to sample & how precisely? Analogue to Digital Converter (ADC) Digital Signal Processing Digital to Analogue Converter (DAC)
10 Audio Signal Processing Basics Sampling Frequency f (how often?) Number of samples per second Nyquist rate: Greater than twice the highest frequency
11 Audio Signal Processing Basics Resolution (how precisely?) Each sample is represented by a number, how many bits should we use? Converting a continuous value to a discrete value requires quantisation. Quantisation Error Digital Analogue
12 Audio Signal Processing Basics Resolution (how precisely?) By using more bits, we reduce the error 101 skipping all the math Each additional bit of resolution improves SNR (signal to noise ratio) by 6.02 db Analogue
13 Audio Signal Processing Basics Audio Signal Sampling Frequency Human perception 20 Hz 20,000 Hz Nyquist says Fs >= 40 khz CD Audio: 44.1 khz Blu-ray (and before that DAT): 48 khz Bit depth Range of loudness relative to human hearing Threshold of hearing 0 db Jet Engines db Busy Road (standing at the curb) 100 db Sustained exposure will cause damage 85 db 16 bits per sample gives ~ 96 db of dynamic range 24 bits per sample = 144 db When/Where might we use more? (higher sampling rate or more bits?)
14 Audio Signal Processing Basics Audio Signal data rates 48 khz, 16 bits per sample = 768 kbps / ch 3.86 GB for a 2hr movie (5.1 channels) (NB: DVD capacity = 4.7GB) 4G has 5-12 Mbps bandwidth (down) compared to 5.1 channels of audio ~4.6 Mbps For practical transmission of Audio it needs to be compressed
15 Audio Signal Processing Basics Processing domains Sampled audio i.e., Pulse Code Modulated (PCM) data is in the time domain Not everything we want to do with audio is formulated as a time domain operation e.g., Flattening the frequency response of a speaker The Fourier Transform expresses a signal in terms of it s frequency components (sinusoids). Using it we can formulate processing in the frequency domain Whether processing is implemented in the time or the frequency domain can depend on where it is most efficient. Signal processing also has other useful transform domains which may offer advantages for specific types of processing e.g., image coding often uses the Discrete Cosine Transform DCT
16 Headphone Virtualisation
17 Headphone Virtualisation How do you get surround sound out of a pair of headphones?
18 Headphone Virtualisation Two things we need to achieve: Make it sound like the audio is coming from different directions Make it sound like the listener is in a room. Both can be achieved by filtering the signal using the impulse response of the room (RIR) and the head-related transfer functions (HRTF).
19 Headphone Virtualisation Room impulse response By measuring how a short impulsive sound is altered by a room, the room s reflections and echoes can be characterised to create an impulse response. The impulse response can in turn be used to filter any signal, to make it sound like it was in the room. The process of filtering a signal using an impulse response is convolution:
20 Headphone Virtualisation Room impulse response How many points would be required to capture a room? (i.e. how long is the impulse response?) Limiting the impulse response to 50ms gives us 1440 points (@48kHz) Considering the computational cost: 1440 * 48k > 69 MFLOPS
21 Headphone Virtualisation Computational load On a DSP chip with a single cycle MAC -> 69 MCPS On an ARM, MAC s ~ 3.5 cycles each -> ~240 MCPS 5.1 channels -> 10 filters = 2,400 MCPS
22 Headphone Virtualisation The solution? Convolution in Time domain <-> Multiplication in Frequency Domain Fourier Transform the impulse response & the signal Block based, e.g., blocks of 2048 O[N.log2(N)] -> k*22528 ~ 78,848 Operate in the Frequency domain, Complex multiplies -> 4 * > 8,192 Transform the result back to the time domain. Same as forward transform Blocks per second? 23 blocks/sec ~4 MFLOPS / filter What about the HRTFs?
23 Headphone Virtualisation Head-related Transfer Function Measured on a dummy Applied as filters Same computational arguments lead us to the need to apply these in the frequency domain. NB: we don t need to go back to the time domain between the two sets of filters
24 Dolby Atmos for headphones debuted in Blizzard s Overwatch
25 Dolby Atmos for Headphones is available in Windows through Dolby Access App

29 Perceptual Audio Coding Case study 2
30 Perceptual Audio Coding How do you reduce the storage and transmission bandwidth requirements of Audio signals? Bitrates: Uncompressed : 768 kbps / ch DVD (AC3) : 448 kbps (5.1 channels) (~10:1 compression ratio)
31 Perceptual Audio Coding Audio Coding is Lossy Lossless compression: must perfectly reconstruct their source. (zip files) Lossy compression: can throw away data if it isn t needed. The reconstruction need only be good enough. Deciding which bits to throw away and what is good enough is the hard part.
32 Perceptual Audio Coding Time/Frequency analysis Quantisation Entropy coding Psychoacoustic analysis Bit allocation
33 Perceptual Audio Coding Psychoacoustics Study of sound Perception Perception implies the human experience which include physiological and psychological factors. Is at the heart of the question of which parts of an audio signal are important, or unimportant.
34 Perceptual Audio Coding Psychoacoustics Most perceptual quantities are non-linear and subjective Loudness Non-linearly related to sound pressure Scales include: sone, phon Pitch Non-linearly related to frequency Scales include: Bark, Mel, ERB
35 Perceptual Audio Coding Frequency Masking
36 Perceptual Audio Coding Temporal Masking
37 Perceptual Audio Coding Time/Frequency analysis Break the incoming signal into time blocks and transform into the frequency domain Coding is always block based The frequency representation is analysed in bins of equal perceptual bandwidth (bark) Psychoacoustic analysis Use the frequency representation of the current block to calculate the masking curve Use the frequency masking curves from previous frames to account for temporal masking Time/Frequency analysis Psychoacoustic analysis Quantisation Bit allocation
38 Perceptual Audio Coding Masking Curve Areas of the spectrum where the masking curve is above the signal energy, represent things we can t hear If we can t hear them, we shouldn t spend bits encoding them
39 Perceptual Audio Coding Bit allocation Quantiser Using the masking curve, we can calculate the allowed signal to noise ratio in each of the frequency bands Knowing that allocating a bit to a quantiser improves SNR by 6 db, iterative allocate the bits available in the bit pool to band, until we either; run out of bits, or exceed the SNR requirements in all bands (any left over bits can be used to code the next frame) The bit distribution must be sent to the decoder Quantise the frequency domain representation to send to the decoder. Time/Frequency analysis Psychoacoustic analysis Quantisation Bit allocation
40 Perceptual Audio Coding Decoding is simple Recreate the frequency representation of each frame Transform back to the time domain Additional processing can be used to enhance the reconstructed signal
