16、cifies the data organization and electrical characteristics for a multichannel audio digital interface for broadcasting studios. It includes a bit-level description, features in common with the two-channel format of Recommendation ITU-R BS.647 and the data rates required for its utilization. The spe

Only single-point to single-point

18、interconnections from one transmitter to one receiver are supported.

31、3.2.2 Audio data representation In the audio mode, the 24-bit format is represented linearly in 2s complement form, with the most significant bit (MSB) transmitted last.

ITU-R BS.1873 5 3.2.4 Inactive channels All inactive channels have all bits set to zero, including the

NOTE 1 The purpose of this new code is that it contains no continuous sequences of ones or zeros. 6 Rec. ITU-R BS.1873 3.3.1.1 Encoding scheme Fo

41、coder in the receiver. Sufficient 4B5B sync symbols are inserted by interleaving with the encoded data words to fill the total link capacity. The 4B5B sync symbol is transmitted from the left. The 4B5B sync symbol may only be inserted at 40-bit channel boundaries, but may be repeated between channel

42、s or during the idle period after the last channel has been transmitted in each frame capacity, or both. The order placement of 4B5B sync symbols is not specified. Some examples of permissible positions of the 4B5B sync symbol are shown in Fig. 4. FIGURE 4 Some permissible 4B5B sync symbol positions

ITU-R BS.1873 3.3.3 Sequence of transmission In any bit sequence, the left-hand symbol always represents the first in time. 3.3.4 NRZI transmission The resul

45、tant 125 Mbit/s bit stream is transmitted by the polarity-independent technique known as NRZI. This scheme enables a low direct-current (d.c.) bias to be maintained on the link. Although the link signal is nearly d.c. free, the audio signal may contain d.c. Figure 5 shows the link transmission forma

46、t for one channel. Appendix A to Annex 1 illustrates the encoding process for a single-channel word.

47、in outline a method of carrying control data in the transport carrier independent of any particular audio channel. The transport sync symbol words inserted between audio data words can carry this control data by virtue of the fact that there are a number of forms of sync symbol, of which the default

48、 is that used by MADI systems. Four-bit nibbles are associated with 16 of the sync symbol forms, thus allowing data to be inserted in the available space. The default sync symbol described in 3.3.2 is associated with the binary value 0000. A stream of 56 channels at 48 kHz 12.5% and highest permitte

49、d varispeed rate uses 96.768 Mbit/s, and a 64-channel 48 kHz stream uses 98.304 Mbit/s. Thus there will always be at least 1 Mbit/s for this data. This may need to be reduced to ensure that bit-stream synchronization is maintained. 3.3.5.1 Data insertion 3.3.5.1.1 Ordering Default sync symbol words are transmitted at least as often as required, in order to guarantee correct data recovery of the whole transport stream. Coded sync symbols are inserted as and when required, subject to the needs of audio data and the provision above. 3.3.5.1.2 Data coding A format relatin
