Patent number: 8332058Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the transmission of digitized audio information of high quality and with a short delay, in particular processes for the transmission of digitized audio information in an audio pickup (microphone) and/or playback path. According to the invention there is proposed a channel filter which is used to shape the high frequency spectrum of the transmission, wherein the spectrum has no attenuation in a first range of about 100 to 300 kHz useful bandwidth and in a range outside the first range it has a stop-band attenuation of particularly preferably more than 60 dB or more than 80 dB.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2004Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Sennheiser electronic GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 7979273Abstract: The invention is based on the idea of providing a method for high-resolution, waveform-preserving digitization of analog signals, wherein conventional scalar logarithmic quantization is transferred to multi-dimensional spherical coordinates, and the advantages resulting from this, e.g., a constant signal/noise ratio over an extremely high dynamic range with very low loss with respect to the rate-distortion theory. In order to make use of the statistical dependencies present in the source signal for an additional gain in the signal/noise ratio, the differential pulse code modulation (DPCM) is combined with spherical logarithmic quantization. The resulting method achieves an effective data reduction with a high long-term and short-term signal/noise ratio with an extremely small signal delay.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2004Date of Patent: July 12, 2011Assignees: Sennheiser electronic GmbH & Co.

Publication number: 20100119099Abstract: There is provided a microphone which has a microphone capsule for recording audio signals, an A/D converter for digitizing the audio signals recorded by the microphone capsule and a semiconductor memory for storing the audio signals digitized by the A/D converter. The microphone further has an interface for transmitting the digital audio signals to an external receiver and a controller for controlling the microphone. The controller controls the microphone in a first operating mode for storing the digitized audio signals in the semiconductor memory and for transmitting the stored audio data by way of the interface at a later time. The controller controls the microphone in a second operating mode for direct transmission of the digitized audio signals by way of the interface. The controller switches into the first operating mode when errors occur in the second operating mode.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2006Publication date: May 13, 2010Inventors: Axel Haupt, Steve Bartlett
