16、ssion (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and i

17、n addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee i

18、nterested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordan

19、ce with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all intere

20、sted IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsib

21、le for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence be

22、tween any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 6) All u

23、sers should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or o

24、ther damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication

25、 Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such pat

Specific properties such as reference points, repetition period, the method of filling

39、 stream gaps, and decoding latency are specified for each data-type. The decoding latency (or delay), indicated for the data-types, should be used by the transmitter to schedule data-bursts as necessary to establish synchronization between picture and decoded audio. 61937-8 IEC:2006(E) 7 5.2 Pause d

42、 use at sample rates above 48 kHz (for example, 88,2 kHz or 96 kHz). The IEC 60958 link should be operated at the sample rate of the decoded audio. The WMA Professional bitstream consists of a sequence of WMA Professional frames. The data-type of a WMA Professional Type I data-burst is 12 h and the

43、subtype is 0 h. A WMA Professional Type I frame represents 4 096 samples of each encoded audio channel (left, centre, etc.) transmitted in two sequential data-bursts. The data-burst is headed with a burst- preamble, followed by the burst-payload. The burst-payload of each pair of data-bursts of WMA

44、Professional Type I data shall contain one complete WMA Professional frame. The length of the WMA Professional data-burst will depend on the encoded bit rate (which determines the WMA Professional frame length).

46、with the reference point of each WMA Professional frame (bit 0 of Pa of the first of the pair of data- bursts) beginning (except in the case of a gap) 4 096 sampling periods of the audio after the reference point of the preceding WMA Professional frame (of the same bit-stream-number). IEC 1986/06 8

47、61937-8 IEC:2006(E) 5.3.2 Latency of WMA Professional Type I decoding The latency of an audio decoder to decode a Windows Media Audio Professional data-burst is defined as two Windows Media Audio Professional frames, plus a decoding delay of two-thirds of a Windows Media Audio Professional frame. Th

48、is corresponds to a latency of 123,84 ms at 88,2 kHz and 113,77 ms at 96 kHz sampling frequency, where the maximum frame size is 4 096 samples per frame. Figure 2 Latency of WMA Professional Type I decoding It is recommended that Pause data-bursts are used to fill stream gaps in the WMA Professional

49、 bit-stream as described in IEC 61937-1, and that Pause data-bursts be transmitted with a repetition period of three sampling periods of the audio, except when other repetition periods are necessary to fill the precise stream gap length (which may not be a multiple of three sampling periods of the audio), or to meet the requirement on burst spacing (see IEC 61937-1, 6.3.3).
