Binaural rendering method and apparatus for decoding multi channel audio
Disclosed is a binaural rendering method and apparatus for decoding a multichannel audio signal. The binaural rendering method may include: extracting an early reflection component and a late reverberation component from a binaural filter; generating a stereo audio signal by performing binaural rendering of a multichannel audio signal base on the early reflection component; and applying the late reverberation component to the generated stereo audio signal.
1. A binaural rendering method in time domain, comprising:
extracting an early reflection and a late reverberation for a binaural rendering;
performing binaural rendering to convert a loudspeaker signal to a stereo signal by applying the early reflection and
the late reverberation.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the binaural rendering is performed based on binaural parameter with respect to each loudspeaker location.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the binaural rendering is performed by applying the late reverberating after applying the early reflection into the loudspeaker signal.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the late reverberation is extracted based on a binaural room impulse response (BRIR) for binaural rendering.
5. A binaural rendering method in frequency domain, comprising:
extracting an early reflection and a late reverberation for a binaural rendering;
converting a multichannel audio signal to a sterero audio signal by performing binaural rendering for the multichannel audio signal,
wherein the binaural rendering is performed based on early reflection and late reverberation.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the early reflection is processed based on bandwise partitioned convolution for binaural rendering.
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the early reflection is determined based on a binaural room impulse responses (BRIR) in the frequency domain.
8. The method of claim 5 , wherein the late reverberation is scaled based on a result of the analyzing the multichannel audio signal.
9. A binaural rendering apparatus in a frequency domain, comprising:
a processor configured to:
extract an early reflection and a late reverberation for a binaural rendering;
convert a multichannel audio signal to a sterero audio signal by performing binaural rendering for the multichannel audio signal,
wherein the binaural rendering is performed based on early reflection and late reverberation.
