Transmitter and receiver for a wireless audio transmission system
First Claim
1. A transmitter for a wireless audio transmission system comprising:
- at least one analog/digital converter unit for analog/digital conversion of analog audio signals to be transmitted into a first digitized signal; and
at least one digital signal processing unit with a compressing/encoding means for compressing and encoding the first digitized signal into a second digitized signal to be transmitted, the compressing/encoding means comprising;
a filter bank for dividing the first digitized signal into different frequency bands;
at least one multiplier unit for multiplying the different frequency bands of the first digitized signal by weighting factors;
a sum filter bank for combining the output signals of the multiplication units to afford a filter bank total signal;
an addition unit for adding the first digitized signal to the filter bank total signal to obtain the second digitized signal;
a filter bank analysis unit for analyzing the second digitized signal; and
an envelope detection unit for estimating the envelope of the second digitized signal based on the analysis of the second digitized signal by the filter bank analysis unit to determine the weighting factors.

Abstract
There is provided a transmitter for a wireless audio transmission system comprising at least one analog/digital converter unit for analog/digital conversion of the analog audio signals to be transmitted, at least one digital signal processing unit with a compressing/encoding device for compressing and encoding the digitized signal to be transmitted, a digital/analog converter unit for digital/analog conversion of the digital output signals of the digital signal processing unit into analog signals, and a transmitting unit for wirelessly transmitting the output signals of the digital/analog converter unit. There is further provided a receiver for a wireless audio transmission system comprising a receiving unit for receiving wirelessly transmitted analog HF signals, an intermediate frequency unit for mixing the HF signals onto intermediate frequency signals, at least one analog/digital converter unit for analog/digital conversion of the wirelessly received signals, at least one digital signal processing unit with an expanding/decoding device for expanding and decoding the signals digitised by the at least one analog/digital converter unit, and at least one digital/analog converter unit for converting the digital output signals of the digital signal processing unit into analog signals.
