17、out to meet the requirements described in Recommendation ITU-R BS.1909, 2 Rec. ITU-R BS.2051-1 recommends 1 that static or dynamic metadata/descriptors meeting the requirements described in Annex 1 should be used to signal the properties of all audio signals used in an advanced sound system in order

18、 to fully represent the desired audio content; 2 that the loudspeaker positions and configurations described in Annex 1 should be considered for production of advanced sound programmes; 3 that the appropriate number of audio elements1 and loudspeaker layout configurations in programme production sho

20、 the recipient in the programme exchange, further recommends 1 that further work should be conducted to provide information about the features of any advanced sound system according to this Recommendation to fulfil the quality requirements of Recommendation ITU-R BS.1909; 2 that only new sound syste

21、ms to be used in broadcasting content production should be added in Annex 1. New sound systems should be a clear expansion from the other sound systems already specified in Annex 1 and their common parts should be as compatible as possible. Such sound systems should be specified by the loudspeaker l

22、ayout (positions and their ranges), the channel labels and their ordering. Annex 1 (normative) Advanced sound system for programme production 1 Introduction The sound system specified in this Recommendation is defined as an advanced sound system which allows the metadata associated with each audio s

23、tream to be static or dynamic for the duration of a programme. This, for example, allows a programme to be represented by elements made by a combination of object signals and channel signals. Channel signals are defined as audio signals that are mixed to a predefined number of channels and accompani

24、ed by metadata being static for the duration of a programme. Each of these channels is associated with a specific loudspeaker. The channel is reproduced by routing the channel to the associated loudspeaker, if present, or is routed to one or more available loudspeakers (e.g. via a 1 An audio element

Rec. ITU-R BS.2051-1 3 channel downmix) so as to best represent playback on the intended loudspeaker. Th

26、e production workflows, broadcasting networks and reproduction systems are defined by a set of loudspeaker positions. Examples are systems according to Recommendation ITU-R BS.775. Object signals are audio signals that, when accompanied by dynamic metadata for the duration of a programme, represent

27、audio elements allowing a renderer to play back the audio objects in a way most appropriate to the playback system and listening environment. An object-based approach also may allow users to interact with the audio content. Object-based elements and channel-based elements can be associated with each

28、 other or exist independently. To allow any combinations of channel or object-based elements, all signals should be accompanied by necessary metadata/descriptors, including time-independent (static) and/or time-dependent (dynamic) spatial position of the desired auditory event. These signals can be

29、reproduced via a configuration of loudspeakers using a variety of rendering and/or mapping techniques. Advanced sound programmes consist of the audio signals and the accompanying metadata. Section 2 specifies requirements for metadata for sound content of the advanced sound system. Section 3 describ

30、es loudspeaker layouts for the systems in production environments. Because a rendering or mapping process is needed for the reproduction of audio signals, the numbers and positions of loudspeakers are required to be well defined. This information enables rendering of the audio signals according to a

31、 predefined loudspeaker configuration in a reproduction scenario. 2 Requirements for metadata/descriptors for sound content of advanced sound system content All audio files and streams used in an advanced sound system will require suitable metadata to accompany them. Unlike simple fixed channel-base

32、d systems where channel ordering is often enough to define the channels, the advanced system will need complete descriptions for all the audio elements used to ensure they are handled correctly. Therefore, a metadata model that has been standardized by a standards organization is required to provide

33、 consistent definitions for the audio. This model should have the following requirements: Contain all information required to reproduce/render a programme in all reproduction scenarios given by Recommendation ITU-R BS.1909 based on a single representation. Be able to describe the format of any chann

34、el-, object- and scene-based audio element. Be flexible enough to describe any combination of elements. The metadata items should be fully described such that they can be used by any renderer. Be specified in an open XML schema to allow the metadata to be represented in XML (as its primary method, i

35、t could of course be translated to other formats such as JSON). Be able to be added to an existing audio file format. To allow commonly used definitions (in particular existing channel-based configurations) to be open and freely accessible from a reference set of definitions. 3 Loudspeaker configura

36、tions for advanced sound system Channel-based signals (including those in an advanced sound system) require a loudspeaker setup where the number and positions of the loudspeakers are well defined. Object-based signals can be reproduced via loudspeakers configured for channel-based signals or additio

37、nal loudspeakers for other advanced rendering systems. 4 Rec. ITU-R BS.2051-1 To ensure the loudspeaker configuration for the advanced multichannel sound system has a consistent definition, a set of parameters have been defined that specify each loudspeaker label, its position, and associated loudsp

47、 as room size, accompanying picture or other constraints, loudspeaker positions may have some azimuth angle and elevation angle variations. To ensure proper adaptation and rendering of channel-based elements, the loudspeaker positions used in the particular production environment should be stored as

When the content is transferred to a different reproduction system/location, it should be ensured that the programme is adapted if necessary so that all quality requirements of the advanced sound system are met. The quality requirements are specified in Recommen

49、dation ITU-R BS.1909. However, loudspeakers should be placed within the sectors defined by the azimuth and elevation range as given in Tables 3 to 12 to lessen the sound quality variations by loudspeaker positions differences.
