Binaural cue coding-Part I: psychoacoustic fundamentals and design principles

Binaural Cue Coding (BCC) is a method for multichannel spatial rendering based on one down-mixed audio channel and BCC side information. The BCC side information has a low data rate and it is derived from the multichannel encoder input signal. A natural application of BCC is multichannel audio data rate reduction since only a single down-mixed audio channel needs to be transmitted. An alternati...

Modeling and Analysis Fundamentals of Technology

This presentation shows fundamental elements for models that are ICT-technology related. Basic hardware functions are discussed: storage, communication and computing with fundamental characteristics, such as throughput, latency, and capacity. A system is build by layers of software on top of hardware. The problem statement is how to reason about system properties, when the system consists of ma...

Binaural hearing and future hearing-aids technology

Normal-hearing persons can make use of two ears in daily listening, and this binaural hearing offers a lot of advantages compared to monaural hearing. The mechanisms of binaural hearing are based on an analysis of interaural differences and monaural cues that are due to directional dependent filtering of the outer ears as described by HeadTransfer Functions. In order to support the binaural abi...
