Multichannel perceptual coding

Dolby AC-3is a kind of efficiency, quality and functional aspects with unprecedented effect perceptual digital audio coding technology. From the beginning of 1992, it has been for the cinema provide multichannel digital audio system and achieved in 1994into the two channel I BS application. It in the cassette and disc type family television system for transmitting multichannel digital sound function has been to the consumer electronics industry with very excited. In the United States, high definition television ( HDTV ) broadcasting the selected Dolby digital surround sound transmission, estimated that in 1996will be put into a test screening.

Many have been announced and the potential applications of the technology of test shows, Dolby AC-3decoder has a beautifully versatility. AC-3 is not a single machine system, but a kind of use can make such as bit rate and number of channels such parameters to adapt to different special application flexible procedures for the treatment of familial. Various types of all decoder in order to work on the same principle as the foundation, and designed to take full account of the future need for compatibility and adaptability. Important is, Dolby AC-3will be high quality sound and excellent digital efficiency is very perfect combination. Because of the Dolby Laboratory for more than 20 years focus on human auditory research, in the development of signal processing field has accumulated rich experience, so, although AC-3than in the CD disk to the last channel lower bit rate to create a multi-channel surround sound, however, it makes the sound quality fully meet the listener expectations.

Audio : past present and future

In 30, the famous Baer Laboratories began using the three channel stereo sound. In 50, when the stereo into public movie, it uses the channel in four above, sometimes reaching over seven channels. A few years later, the stereo into families, since all of the phonograph records only with dual channel matching, so the family leave acoustic device only by dual channel playback, the technical limitations, can not the listener will generally two-channel stereo as the home audio selection criteria.

But the film makers have channel 1( left, right, center ) and surround channel2as a compelling vivid sound minimum requirements. This can be from 70 time end, eighty time period the film industry widely adopted Dolby stereo to record film confirmed, Dolby stereo is the principle, let four channel matrix coding input two optical sound track, then an appropriate audio processor will restore it into four channels matrix coding reproduction.

When Dolby stereo film is converted into audio signals, four channel coding retained the dubbing integrity, from 80 time begin first, Dolby surround has made multiple channel decoding into family time, today, tens of thousands of home audio systems are equipped with Dolby surround sound system, in fact, multi-channel surround sound system sales has been far beyond the two-channel stereo system sales, at present, Dolby surround sound has been widely used in film, TV and music on CD recording studio, and its accompanying family Dolby surround systems on the market rapid development.

With multi-channel audio in consumer electronics in the field of rapid growth, a more advanced technology was born, the technology is born there is nothing comparable to this, it has simulated realistic sound effects, and can satisfy various listening conditions and high demand cannot imagine adaptability, this is Dolby AC-3decoding technology Dolby AC-3 decoder, the successful development and application, is the worlds electro-acoustic industry a major achievement.

Dolby AC-3

In 1987, high-definition television channel in the United States has officially become the standard process, its audio track is used for the first time in the four channel matrix encoding conversion for transmission of digital code stereo. However, by 1990, in order to avoid audio matrix are affected, four mono or stereo combined configuration as the optimal configuration. Due to time technical limitations, such an arrangement would have to increase by at least a bit rate.

It is in this context, Dolby AC-3was born. It has the advantage of only two independent stereo more code rates can realize multi-channel audio code. Dolby advanced to the transmission of the code technology, such as Dolby AC-2 decoder for Dolby AC-3s successful development paved the way, but the complexity of multichannel code also need further research, including a new type of bit allocation technique.

The Dolby laboratory is established by Rui Milton Dolby. Dr. Dolby was born in 1933 in the United States Portland Oregon City, grew up in the San Francisco Bay area. At the age of 16 he was still in high school, in Ampex company works. The company is the United States s first production of magnetic tape recording equipment manufacturers. Later, he is responsible for the development of the company developed the worlds first practical VCR portion of an electronic circuit.

In 1957 Dolby graduated from Stanford University, University of Cambridge, Marshall won the British provided scholarships, study of L-band X light. In 1961 he received a doctors degree in physics. In 1963, he accepted the UN appointed to India as a two-year consultant.

As an amateur recording enthusiasts, Dr. Dolby over the years to recognize on the tape recording audio or video signal when background noise on the recording quality damage. While in India he began thinking seriously about a noise reduction without compromising the recording quality approach. His exploration of these became the Dolby A B noise reduction and noise reduction, noise reduction system based on C.

In 1965, returning to England, in London he established his own labor
