40、 consists of a sequence of AC-3 frames. The data-type of an AC-3 data-burst is 1. An AC-3 frame represents 1 536 samples of each encoded audio channel (left, centre, etc.). The data-burst is headed with a burst-preamble followed by the burst-payload. The burst-payload of each data burst of AC-3 data

41、 shall contain one complete AC-3 frame. Figure 1 shows the structure of the AC-3 data-burst. The length of the AC-3 data-burst will depend on the encoded bit rate (which determines the AC-3 frame length). The specification for the AC-3 bitstream may be found in ATSC Standard A52/B or in ETSI TS 102

44、) BSI 8 61937-3 IEC:2007(E) The data-bursts containing AC-3 frames shall occur at a regular rate, with the reference point of each AC-3 data-burst beginning (except in the case of a gap) 1 536 sampling periods of the audio after the reference point of the preceding AC-3 data burst (of the same bitst

45、ream number). The reference point of an AC-3 data-burst (R-AC-3) is the IEC 60958 frame that occurs two-thirds of the way through the AC-3 payload. The definition of the two-thirds value is the closest integer to the value of the AC-3 frame size measured in 32-bit words multiplied by the value 2/3,

46、or 2/3 frame size = int (0,5 + (2/3) (frame size in 32-bit words) 5.3.2 Latency of AC-3 decoding The latency of an AC-3 decoder which receives this signal is specified, with respect to the reference point of the AC-3 burst, to be equal to one AC-3 block time, which is equal to the time occupied by 2

47、56 PCM samples at the encoded sampling frequency (5,33 ms for 48 kHz sampling frequency; see Figure 2). Figure 2 Latency of AC-3 decoding It is recommended that pause data-bursts be used to fill stream gaps in the AC-3 bitstream, as described in IEC 61937-1, and that pause data-bursts be transmitted

48、 with a repetition period of three IEC 60958 frames, except when other repetition periods are necessary to fill the precise stream gap length (which may not be a multiple of three IEC 60958 frames), or to meet the requirement on burst spacing (see IEC 61937-1, 6.3.3). When a stream gap in an AC-3 st

49、ream is filled by a sequence of pause data-bursts, the Pa of the first pause data-burst shall be located one frame repetition period following the Pa of the previous AC-3 frame. It is recommended that the sequence(s) of pause data-bursts which fill the stream gap should continue from this point up to (as close as possible considering the three IEC 60958 frame length of the pause data-burst) the Pa of the first AC-3 data-burst which follows the stream g
