18、 AUDIO BITSTREAMS APPLYING IEC 60958 Part 10: Non-linear PCM bitstreams according to the MPEG-4 audio lossless coding (ALS) format FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC
19、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 in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, P
20、ublicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- go
21、vernmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IE
22、C 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 interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are acce
23、pted 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 responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote internatio
24、nal uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the la
25、tter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users sho
26、uld 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 other dam
27、age 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. Use of
28、 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 patent righ
29、ts. International Standard IEC 61937-10 has been prepared by technical area 4: Digital system interfaces and protocols, of IEC technical committee 100: Audio, video and multimedia systems and equipment. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2011. This edition consti
30、tutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) Addition of Levels 2, 3, 4 of MPEG-4 ALS Simple Profile; b) Addition of data-type bits 0-4 and data-type bits 5-6 for MPEG-4 ALS with LATM/LOAS header. 4 IEC 61937-1
31、0:2017 IEC 2017 The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents: CDV Report on voting 100/2630/CDV 100/2930/RVC Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This document
32、has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. A list of all the parts in the IEC 61937 series, published under the general title Digital audio Interface for non-linear PCM encoded audio bitstreams applying IEC 60958 can be found on the IEC website. The committee has decided tha
33、t the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC website under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific document. At this date, the document will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. A bilingual ve
34、rsion of this publication may be issued at a later date.
