CDQPrima USERS GUIDE
6-206-20
Another MUSICAM USA exclusive feature available on the CDQPrima
is Advanced Concealment of Errors (ACE). ACE is based on CRC
(Cyclic Redundancy Code) protection of the ISO/MPEG Layer II scale
factors.
This feature is controlled by the DSP
<Decoder><More><ACE>
and ESP
<Encoder><More><General><ACE>
commands. In general, it is better to use scale factor protection if the
data channel is noisy (high BER). Scale factor protection (ESP) is used
for all ISO/MPEG Layer II types of bitstreams. Scale factors are the
levels of the digital audio signal within a sub-band. There are 32 sub-
bands and the scale factors change the level over a 120 dB range. An
error on any scale factor will cause a perceptible impairment in the
audio. To prevent this, scale factor protection can be inserted at the
encoder and if the decoder is capable of recognizing it, then the decoder
can perform a concealment operation to repair the damaged scale
factor. If the decoder does not know about scale factor protection, the
audio is decoded and any damaged scale factors cause an impairment.
Scale factor protection is not bi-directional, and must be enabled
independently for each direction. If ESP has enabled scale factor
protection, the far end decoder must enable scale factor correction
with the DSP command. If only one end has scale factor protection
enabled, audio may be muted. The CDQPrima’s Scale factor protection
is not compatible with other manufacturers codecs. Scale factor
protection is compatible with MUSICAM USAs CDQ2001 and Prima LT
codecs.
