Description

支援低功耗藍牙音訊廣播運作並可同步調整音量大小的藍牙音訊廣播系統及相關的多成員藍牙裝置A Bluetooth audio broadcast system and related multi-member Bluetooth devices that support Bluetooth low energy audio broadcast operation and can adjust the volume synchronously

本發明涉及藍牙技術,尤指一種支援低功耗藍牙(Bluetooth Low Energy,BLE)音訊廣播運作、並可同步調整音量大小的藍牙音訊廣播系統及相關的多成員藍牙裝置。The invention relates to bluetooth technology, in particular to a bluetooth audio broadcast system and a related multi-member bluetooth device which supports low power consumption bluetooth (Bluetooth Low Energy, BLE) audio broadcast operation and can adjust the volume synchronously.

藍牙技術區分成兩大類,一類是藍牙傳統(Classic Bluetooth/Legacy Bluetooth)技術,另一類則是低功耗藍牙(Bluetooth Low Energy,BLE)技術。BLE技術與藍牙傳統技術彼此不具相容性(或不能完全相容),但兩種技術可共存(coexist)於同一藍牙裝置或同一藍牙晶片。換言之,單一藍牙裝置或單一藍牙晶片可設計成同時支援BLE技術與藍牙傳統技術,也可設計成只支援其中一種藍牙通信標準。Bluetooth technology is divided into two categories, one is Classic Bluetooth/Legacy Bluetooth technology, and the other is Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology. BLE technology and Bluetooth legacy technology are not compatible (or not completely compatible) with each other, but the two technologies can coexist (coexist) on the same Bluetooth device or the same Bluetooth chip. In other words, a single Bluetooth device or a single Bluetooth chip can be designed to support both BLE technology and Bluetooth legacy technology, or it can be designed to support only one of the Bluetooth communication standards.

基於藍牙核心規格5.2版本所新推出的低功耗藍牙音訊(Bluetooth LE Audio,BLE Audio)技術(以下簡稱BLE音訊技術),是藍牙技術發展20多年來,對於音訊傳輸技術規格的重大更新。BLE音訊技術的主要優點在於可以傳輸更高質量的音訊,並同時大幅降低功耗。另外,BLE音訊技術也利用稱為廣播等時串流(Broadcast Isochronous Stream,BIS)的新機制來進行音訊廣播運作。利用多成員藍牙裝置來接收及播放採用BLE音訊技術的音訊廣播內容,是未來藍牙相關應用的主要發展方向之一。前述的多成員藍牙裝置指的是由多個互相搭配使用的藍牙電路所組成的藍牙裝置,例如,成對的藍牙耳機、成組的藍牙喇叭等等。The new low-power Bluetooth audio (Bluetooth LE Audio, BLE Audio) technology (hereinafter referred to as BLE audio technology) based on the 5.2 version of the Bluetooth core specification is a major update to the audio transmission technical specifications after the development of Bluetooth technology for more than 20 years. The main advantage of BLE audio technology is that it can transmit higher quality audio while significantly reducing power consumption. In addition, BLE audio technology also utilizes a new mechanism called Broadcast Isochronous Stream (BIS) for audio broadcast operations. Using multi-member Bluetooth devices to receive and play audio broadcast content using BLE audio technology is one of the main development directions for future Bluetooth-related applications. The aforementioned multi-member Bluetooth device refers to a Bluetooth device composed of a plurality of Bluetooth circuits used in conjunction with each other, for example, a pair of Bluetooth earphones, a group of Bluetooth speakers, and the like.

眾所周知,BLE音訊技術並未規範在利用BIS進行音訊廣播時,應該如何彈性地調整音訊接收端的音量播放大小。當然,BLE音訊技術更沒有規範在利用BIS進行音訊廣播時,應該如何同步地調整多成員藍牙裝置中的不同藍牙成員裝置的音量播放大小。可以預見的是,利用BLE音訊技術來實現音訊廣播時可能會衍生某些問題。例如,無法預期音量大小的音訊廣播有可能造成某些使用者感到不適或不悅,甚至某些使用者可能會因為接收到突如其來且音量過大的音訊廣播而受到驚嚇。再者,不同的使用者對於音量大小的敏感度與容忍程度並不相同,所以單一的音量大小設定顯然無法同時滿足不同使用者的需求。As we all know, BLE audio technology does not standardize how to flexibly adjust the volume playback size of the audio receiving end when using BIS for audio broadcasting. Of course, the BLE audio technology does not regulate how to synchronously adjust the volume playback volume of different Bluetooth member devices in a multi-member Bluetooth device when using BIS for audio broadcasting. It is foreseeable that some problems may arise when using BLE audio technology to implement audio broadcasting. For example, unpredictable audio broadcasts may cause some users to feel uncomfortable or unhappy, and some users may even be startled when they receive a sudden audio broadcast at an excessively loud volume. Furthermore, different users have different sensitivities and tolerances to the volume level, so a single volume level setting obviously cannot meet the needs of different users at the same time.

因此,在利用多成員藍牙裝置接收及播放採用BLE音訊技術的音訊廣播時,倘若不能彈性且同步地調整多成員藍牙裝置中的不同藍牙成員裝置的音量播放大小,將對BLE音訊技術在音訊廣播應用中的發展前景造成嚴重阻礙。Therefore, when using a multi-member Bluetooth device to receive and play audio broadcasts using BLE audio technology, if the volume playback volume of different Bluetooth member devices in the multi-member Bluetooth device cannot be adjusted flexibly and synchronously, the BLE audio technology will be used in the audio broadcast. The prospect of development in applications poses a serious impediment.

有鑑於此,如何在利用多成員藍牙裝置接收及播放採用BLE音訊技術的音訊廣播時,彈性且同步地調整多成員藍牙裝置中的不同藍牙成員裝置的音量播放大小,實為有待解決的問題。In view of this, how to flexibly and synchronously adjust the volume playback volume of different Bluetooth member devices in the multi-member Bluetooth device when receiving and playing audio broadcasts using the BLE audio technology using the multi-member Bluetooth device is a problem to be solved.

如此一來,第一音訊播放電路113及第二音訊播放電路123開始同步播放預定音訊資料時所發出的音量大小,就能讓使用者感到舒適,而不會造成使用者感到不適或不悅。In this way, when the first audio playing circuit 113 and the second audio playing circuit 123 start to play the predetermined audio data synchronously, the volume of the sound can make the user feel comfortable without causing the user to feel uncomfortable or unhappy.

此外,由於第一音訊播放電路113及第二音訊播放電路123開始同步播放預定音訊資料時的音量大小,已被預先設置成接近或等於前述的預定音量大小,所以就算音訊廣播裝置150是在使用者沒有心理預期的情況下開始進行音訊廣播,也能避免使用者因為突如其來的音訊廣播的音量過大而受到驚嚇的問題發生。In addition, since the volume levels when the first audio playback circuit 113 and the second audio playback circuit 123 start playing the predetermined audio data synchronously have been preset to be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume levels, even if the audio broadcasting device 150 is using The audio broadcast can be started without the user's psychological expectation, and the problem of the user being frightened by the sudden loudness of the audio broadcast can also be avoided.

同樣地,藍牙音訊廣播系統200中的其他藍牙成員裝置(例如,前述的第三藍牙成員裝置130及第四藍牙成員裝置140),在開始播放音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音訊資料之前,就會先依據音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音量指示,分別將相關的音訊播放電路(圖中未繪示)的音量大小,調整成接近或等於前述的預定音量大小。因此,藍牙音訊廣播系統200中的其他藍牙成員裝置開始同步播放預定音訊資料時所發出的音量大小,也能讓使用者感到舒適,而不會造成使用者感到不適或不悅。Similarly, other Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 200 (eg, the aforementioned third Bluetooth member device 130 and fourth Bluetooth member device 140 ), before starting to play the predetermined audio data transmitted from the audio broadcasting device 150 , First, according to the predetermined volume indication from the audio broadcasting device 150 , the volume of the relevant audio playback circuit (not shown in the figure) is adjusted to be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume. Therefore, the volume of the other Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 200 when they start to play the predetermined audio data synchronously can also make the user feel comfortable without causing the user to feel uncomfortable or unhappy.

另外,在藍牙音訊廣播系統200中的多成員藍牙裝置播放音訊廣播裝置150所廣播的音訊資料的過程中,音訊來源裝置370或主控裝置660還可根據使用者的操作或指令,指示音訊廣播裝置150廣播一音量調整指示給個別藍牙成員裝置,以同步調整個別藍牙成員裝置的音量大小。換言之,前述的藍牙音訊廣播系統200允許使用者同步調整藍牙音訊廣播系統200中的不同藍牙成員裝置的音量大小。In addition, during the multi-member Bluetooth device in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 200 playing the audio data broadcasted by the audio broadcasting device 150, the audio source device 370 or the master device 660 can also instruct the audio broadcasting according to the user's operation or instruction The device 150 broadcasts a volume adjustment instruction to the individual Bluetooth member devices to synchronously adjust the volume of the individual Bluetooth member devices. In other words, the aforementioned Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 200 allows the user to adjust the volume of different Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 200 synchronously.

再者,藍牙音訊廣播系統200是採用BLE音訊技術來進行音訊廣播,而且音訊廣播裝置150可採用低複雜度通信編解碼器(LC3)對預定音訊資料進行編碼。因此,相較於傳統的音訊廣播方式而言,藍牙音訊廣播系統200所採用的前述音訊廣播方法,不僅可降低多成員藍牙裝置的耗電量,進而延長多成員藍牙裝置的使用時間,還能有效提升音訊廣播的整體音訊品質。Furthermore, the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 200 uses the BLE audio technology to perform audio broadcasting, and the audio broadcasting device 150 can use the low-complexity communication codec (LC3) to encode the predetermined audio data. Therefore, compared with the traditional audio broadcasting method, the aforementioned audio broadcasting method adopted by the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 200 can not only reduce the power consumption of the multi-member Bluetooth device, thereby prolong the use time of the multi-member Bluetooth device, but also can reduce the power consumption of the multi-member Bluetooth device.

換言之,圖9中的藍牙音訊廣播系統300同樣允許使用者同步調整藍牙音訊廣播系統300中的所有藍牙成員裝置的音量大小。In other words, the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 in FIG. 9 also allows the user to adjust the volume of all Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 synchronously.

前述有關圖3、圖6、圖7、或圖8中的相關電路與裝置的實施方式及連接方式的描述,亦適用於圖9的藍牙音訊廣播系統300中。前述有關圖4與圖5的運作方式的描述,亦適用於圖9的藍牙音訊廣播系統300中。為簡潔起見,在此不重複敘述。The foregoing descriptions about the implementations and connection methods of the related circuits and devices in FIG. 3 , FIG. 6 , FIG. 7 , or FIG. 8 are also applicable to the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 in FIG. 9 . The foregoing description about the operation of FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 is also applicable to the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 of FIG. 9 . For brevity, the description is not repeated here.

在某些實施例中,亦可將圖9的第二藍牙成員裝置120中的第二觸發電路826省略。In some embodiments, the second trigger circuit 826 in the second Bluetooth member device 120 of FIG. 9 can also be omitted.

由前述圖4、圖5、圖8、及圖9的說明可知,在藍牙音訊廣播系統300中的多成員藍牙裝置開始播放音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音訊資料之前,第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120就會先依據音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音量指示,分別將第一音訊播放電路113及第二音訊播放電路123的音量大小,調整成接近或等於前述的預定音量大小。4, 5, 8, and 9, it can be seen that before the multi-member Bluetooth device in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 starts to play the predetermined audio data transmitted from the audio broadcasting device 150, the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 will first adjust the volume levels of the first audio playback circuit 113 and the second audio playback circuit 123 to be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume according to the predetermined volume indication from the audio broadcasting device 150. size.

因此,當第一藍牙成員裝置110開始利用第一音訊播放電路113播放音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音訊資料時,第一音訊播放電路113發出的音量大小會接近或等於前述的預定音量大小。同樣地,當第二藍牙成員裝置120開始利用第二音訊播放電路123播放音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音訊資料時,第二音訊播放電路123發出的音量大小也會接近或等於前述的預定音量大小。Therefore, when the first Bluetooth member device 110 starts to use the first audio playback circuit 113 to play the predetermined audio data from the audio broadcasting device 150, the volume output by the first audio playback circuit 113 will be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume. Similarly, when the second Bluetooth member device 120 starts to use the second audio playback circuit 123 to play the predetermined audio data from the audio broadcasting device 150, the volume of the second audio playback circuit 123 will be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume. size.

如此一來,第一音訊播放電路113及第二音訊播放電路123開始同步播放預定音訊資料時所發出的音量大小,就能讓使用者感到舒適,而不會造成使用者感到不適或不悅。In this way, when the first audio playing circuit 113 and the second audio playing circuit 123 start to play the predetermined audio data synchronously, the volume of the sound can make the user feel comfortable without causing the user to feel uncomfortable or unhappy.

此外,由於第一音訊播放電路113及第二音訊播放電路123開始同步播放預定音訊資料時的音量大小,已被預先設置成接近或等於前述的預定音量大小,所以就算音訊廣播裝置150是在使用者沒有心理預期的情況下開始進行音訊廣播,也能避免使用者因為突如其來的音訊廣播的音量過大而受到驚嚇的問題發生。In addition, since the volume levels when the first audio playback circuit 113 and the second audio playback circuit 123 start playing the predetermined audio data synchronously have been preset to be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume levels, even if the audio broadcasting device 150 is using The audio broadcast can be started without the user's psychological expectation, and the problem of the user being frightened by the sudden loudness of the audio broadcast can also be avoided.

同樣地,藍牙音訊廣播系統300中的其他藍牙成員裝置(例如,前述的第三藍牙成員裝置130及第四藍牙成員裝置140),在開始播放音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音訊資料之前,就會先依據音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音量指示,分別將相關的音訊播放電路(圖中未繪示)的音量大小,調整成接近或等於前述的預定音量大小。因此,藍牙音訊廣播系統300中的其他藍牙成員裝置開始同步播放預定音訊資料時所發出的音量大小,也能讓使用者感到舒適,而不會造成使用者感到不適或不悅。Similarly, other Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 (eg, the aforementioned third Bluetooth member device 130 and fourth Bluetooth member device 140 ), before starting to play the predetermined audio data transmitted from the audio broadcasting device 150 , First, according to the predetermined volume indication from the audio broadcasting device 150 , the volume of the relevant audio playback circuit (not shown in the figure) is adjusted to be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume. Therefore, the volume of the other Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 when they start to play the predetermined audio data synchronously can also make the user feel comfortable without causing the user to feel uncomfortable or unhappy.

另外,在藍牙音訊廣播系統300中的多成員藍牙裝置播放音訊廣播裝置150所廣播的音訊資料的過程中,使用者還可對其中一個藍牙成員裝置的觸發電路進行簡單操作,以致使該藍牙成員裝置直接指示(或透過主控裝置660間接指示)音訊廣播裝置150廣播一音量調整指示給個別藍牙成員裝置,以同步調整個別藍牙成員裝置的音量大小。換言之,前述的藍牙音訊廣播系統300允許使用者同步調整藍牙音訊廣播系統300中的不同藍牙成員裝置的音量大小。In addition, during the multi-member Bluetooth device in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 playing the audio data broadcasted by the audio broadcasting device 150, the user can also simply operate the trigger circuit of one of the Bluetooth member devices, so that the Bluetooth member The device directly instructs (or indirectly through the main control device 660) the audio broadcasting device 150 to broadcast a volume adjustment instruction to the individual Bluetooth member devices, so as to adjust the volume of the individual Bluetooth member devices synchronously. In other words, the aforementioned Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 allows the user to adjust the volume of different Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 synchronously.

再者,藍牙音訊廣播系統300是採用BLE音訊技術來進行音訊廣播,而且音訊廣播裝置150可採用低複雜度通信編解碼器(LC3)對預定音訊資料進行編碼。因此,相較於傳統的音訊廣播方式而言,藍牙音訊廣播系統300所採用的前述音訊廣播方法,不僅可降低多成員藍牙裝置的耗電量,進而延長多成員藍牙裝置的使用時間,還能有效提升音訊廣播的整體音訊品質。Furthermore, the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 uses the BLE audio technology to perform audio broadcasting, and the audio broadcasting device 150 can use the low-complexity communication codec (LC3) to encode the predetermined audio data. Therefore, compared with the traditional audio broadcasting method, the aforementioned audio broadcasting method adopted by the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 300 can not only reduce the power consumption of the multi-member Bluetooth device, thereby prolong the use time of the multi-member Bluetooth device, but also can reduce the power consumption of the multi-member Bluetooth device. Effectively improve the overall audio quality of audio broadcasting.

During operation, the audio broadcasting device 150 can send the Bluetooth low energy audio packets containing predetermined audio data to a plurality of Bluetooth member devices (eg, the first Bluetooth member device 110 ) in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 through the BIS logical transmission channel. , the second Bluetooth member device 120 , the third Bluetooth member device 130 , and the fourth Bluetooth member device 140 ) to broadcast.

在圖10的音訊廣播裝置150進行音訊廣播的過程中(亦即,在音訊廣播裝置150重複進行圖11的流程222及流程224的過程中),倘若主控裝置1060的使用者想要調整多個藍牙成員裝置(例如,第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120)的音量大小,則使用者可對主控裝置1060的輸入電路1063進行特定的操作,例如,輸入指令、設定音量調整方向、或是設定音量調整量等等。在此情況下,處理電路1065可進行圖11中的流程1132。During the audio broadcasting process of the audio broadcasting device 150 of FIG. 10 (that is, during the process that the audio broadcasting device 150 repeatedly performs the process 222 and the process 224 of FIG. 11 ), if the user of the main control device 1060 wants to adjust the The volume of each Bluetooth member device (eg, the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 ), the user can perform specific operations on the input circuit 1063 of the master device 1060 , such as inputting commands, setting the volume Adjust the direction, or set the volume adjustment amount, etc. In this case, the processing circuit 1065 may perform the process 1132 in FIG. 11 .

在流程1132中,處理電路1065可依據使用者對輸入電路1063的操作,產生用來指示一音量調整方向(例如,調升或調降)的一音量調整指示,並可利用通信電路1061採用除了藍牙通信方式以外的各種無線存取技術(RAT),將音量調整指示傳送給第一藍牙成員裝置110的第一無線通信電路815、以及第二藍牙成員裝置120的第二無線通信電路825。In the process 1132, the processing circuit 1065 can generate a volume adjustment instruction for indicating a volume adjustment direction (eg, up or down) according to the user's operation on the input circuit 1063, and can use the communication circuit 1061 to use other than Various radio access technologies (RATs) other than Bluetooth communication methods transmit volume adjustment instructions to the first wireless communication circuit 815 of the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second wireless communication circuit 825 of the second Bluetooth member device 120 .

在流程1134中,第一無線通信電路815以及第二無線通信電路825可接收主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示。In the process 1134 , the first wireless communication circuit 815 and the second wireless communication circuit 825 may receive the volume adjustment instruction from the master device 1060 .

接著,第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120可進行流程1136,以依據主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示,調整相應音訊播放電路的增益值。在本實施例中,第一藍牙成員裝置110在流程1136中的運作方式,與前述圖5中的流程510實質相同,而第二藍牙成員裝置120在流程1136中的運作方式,則與前述圖5中的流程514實質相同。Next, the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 may perform the process 1136 to adjust the gain value of the corresponding audio playback circuit according to the volume adjustment instruction sent from the master device 1060 . In this embodiment, the operation of the first Bluetooth member device 110 in the process 1136 is substantially the same as the process 510 in the aforementioned FIG. 5 , and the operation of the second Bluetooth member device 120 in the process 1136 is the same as the aforementioned FIG. 5 . Process 514 in 5 is substantially the same.

例如,第一控制電路114可在流程1136中,依據主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示,控制第一音訊處理電路112調整第一音訊播放電路113的增益值,以調整第一音訊播放電路113的音量大小。同樣地,第二控制電路124可在流程1136中,依據主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示,控制第二音訊處理電路122調整第二音訊播放電路123的增益值,以調整第二音訊播放電路123的音量大小。For example, in the process 1136, the first control circuit 114 can control the first audio processing circuit 112 to adjust the gain value of the first audio playback circuit 113 according to the volume adjustment instruction sent from the main control device 1060, so as to adjust the first audio playback circuit 113 volume level.

由於第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120都是依據主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示來調整音量大小,所以當第一音訊處理電路112調整第一音訊播放電路113的音量大小時,第二音訊處理電路122也會同步調整第二音訊播放電路123的音量大小。Since the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 both adjust the volume according to the volume adjustment instruction from the master device 1060 , when the first audio processing circuit 112 adjusts the volume of the first audio playback circuit 113 At the same time, the second audio processing circuit 122 also adjusts the volume of the second audio playing circuit 123 synchronously.

換言之,在第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120播放音訊廣播裝置150所廣播的音訊資料的過程中,主控裝置1060可根據使用者的操作或指令,產生並傳送一音量調整指示給第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120,以同步調整第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120的音量大小。In other words, when the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 play the audio data broadcasted by the audio broadcasting device 150, the master control device 1060 can generate and transmit a volume adjustment instruction according to the user's operation or instruction For the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 , the volume of the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 can be adjusted synchronously.

在前述的藍牙音訊廣播系統400中,主控裝置1060的通信電路1061是採用除了藍牙通信方式以外的各種無線存取技術(RAT),將音量調整指示傳送給第一藍牙成員裝置110的第一無線通信電路815、以及第二藍牙成員裝置120的第二無線通信電路825。但這只是一示例性的實施例,並非侷限本發明之實際實施方式。實作上,主控裝置1060的通信電路1061可改用其他傳輸機制將音量調整指示傳送給第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120。In the aforementioned Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 , the communication circuit 1061 of the master device 1060 uses various radio access technologies (RATs) other than Bluetooth communication methods to transmit the volume adjustment instruction to the first Bluetooth member device 110 . The wireless communication circuit 815 , and the second wireless communication circuit 825 of the second Bluetooth member device 120 . However, this is only an exemplary embodiment, and does not limit the actual implementation of the present invention. In practice, the communication circuit 1061 of the master device 1060 can use other transmission mechanisms to transmit the volume adjustment instruction to the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 .

例如,在另一實施例中,主控裝置1060的通信電路1061可改用藍牙通信技術來傳送音量調整指示,以將音量調整指示傳送給第一藍牙成員裝置110的第一藍牙通信電路111、以及第二藍牙成員裝置120的第二藍牙通信電路121。在此情況下,第一藍牙成員裝置110可利用第一藍牙通信電路111接收主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示,而第二藍牙成員裝置120則可利用第一藍牙通信電路111接收主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示。如此一來,便可將圖10中的第一無線通信電路815和/或第二無線通信電路825省略。For example, in another embodiment, the communication circuit 1061 of the master device 1060 can use the Bluetooth communication technology instead to transmit the volume adjustment instruction, so as to transmit the volume adjustment instruction to the first Bluetooth communication circuit 111, and the second Bluetooth communication circuit 121 of the second Bluetooth member device 120 . In this case, the first Bluetooth member device 110 can use the first Bluetooth communication circuit 111 to receive the volume adjustment instruction from the master device 1060 , while the second Bluetooth member device 120 can use the first Bluetooth communication circuit 111 to receive the master control Volume adjustment instruction from device 1060. In this way, the first wireless communication circuit 815 and/or the second wireless communication circuit 825 in FIG. 10 can be omitted.

例如,在前述的標的資料項目是各種藍牙廣告封包的某些實施例中,處理電路1065可將前述的音量調整指示,***單一個藍牙廣告封包的單一或多個特定欄位中,或是分散***多個藍牙廣告封包的特定欄位中。For example, in some embodiments in which the aforementioned target data items are various Bluetooth advertisement packets, the processing circuit 1065 may insert the aforementioned volume adjustment instruction into one or more specific fields of a single Bluetooth advertisement packet, or disperse the aforementioned volume adjustment instructions. Insert into specific fields of multiple Bluetooth advertising packets.

又例如,在前述的標的資料項目是各種BIS協定資料單元或BIG協定資料單元的某些實施例中,處理電路1065可將前述的音量調整指示,***單一個BIS協定資料單元或BIG協定資料單元的單一或多個特定欄位中,或是分散***多個BIS協定資料單元或BIG協定資料單元的特定欄位中。如前所述,前述的特定欄位可以是BIS協定資料單元或BIG協定資料單元中的事件計數(Event Counter)欄位、子事件計數(Sub-Event Counter)欄位、或負載計數(Payload Counter)欄位等等。For another example, in some embodiments in which the aforementioned target data items are various BIS protocol data units or BIG protocol data units, the processing circuit 1065 may insert the aforementioned volume adjustment instruction into a single BIS protocol data unit or BIG protocol data unit into single or multiple specific fields, or scatteredly inserted into specific fields of multiple BIS protocol data units or BIG protocol data units. As mentioned above, the aforementioned specific field may be an Event Counter field, a Sub-Event Counter field, or a Payload Counter field in a BIS protocol data unit or a BIG protocol data unit. ) field, etc.

接著,處理電路1065可比照音訊廣播裝置150在前述圖5的流程504中的運作方式,控制通信電路1061操作在一標的傳送模式下,以將前述的一或多個標的資料項目傳送給第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120。通信電路1061在標的傳送模式下將前述的一或多個標的資料項目傳送給第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120的方式,與前述圖5中的流程504及流程506相同。為了簡潔起見,在此不重複敘述。Next, the processing circuit 1065 can control the communication circuit 1061 to operate in a target transmission mode, so as to transmit the aforesaid one or more target data items to the first The Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 . The manner in which the communication circuit 1061 transmits the aforementioned one or more target data items to the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 in the target transmission mode is the same as the aforementioned process 504 and process 506 in FIG. 5 . For the sake of brevity, the description is not repeated here.

在實際應用中,主控裝置1060可比照前述調整第一藍牙成員裝置110或第二藍牙成員裝置120的音量大小的方式,利用音量調整指示來同步調整藍牙音訊廣播系統400中的其他藍牙成員裝置(例如,前述的第三藍牙成員裝置130及第四藍牙成員裝置140)的音量大小。但這只是一示例性的實施例,並非侷限本發明之實際實施方式。In practical applications, the master control device 1060 can use the volume adjustment instruction to synchronously adjust other Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 according to the aforementioned method of adjusting the volume of the first Bluetooth member device 110 or the second Bluetooth member device 120 (For example, the volume of the aforementioned third Bluetooth member device 130 and fourth Bluetooth member device 140 ). However, this is only an exemplary embodiment, and does not limit the actual implementation of the present invention.

實作上,藍牙音訊廣播系統400中的其他藍牙成員裝置(例如,前述的第三藍牙成員裝置130及第四藍牙成員裝置140)的音量大小,亦可改由另一個主控裝置(例如,主控裝置1070)來控制。在此情況下,第三藍牙成員裝置130及第四藍牙成員裝置140會依據主控裝置1070產生的音量調整指示,同步調整播放預定音訊資料時的音量大小。In practice, the volume levels of other Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 (eg, the aforementioned third Bluetooth member device 130 and the fourth Bluetooth member device 140 ) can also be changed by another master device (eg, main control device 1070) to control. In this case, the third Bluetooth member device 130 and the fourth Bluetooth member device 140 will synchronously adjust the volume when playing the predetermined audio data according to the volume adjustment instruction generated by the main control device 1070 .

以下將搭配圖13來進一步說明圖12中的藍牙音訊廣播系統400的運作方式。圖13為本發明一第四實施例的利用BLE音訊技術進行音訊廣播的方法簡化後的流程圖。The operation of the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 in FIG. 12 will be further described below with reference to FIG. 13 . FIG. 13 is a simplified flowchart of a method for performing audio broadcasting using the BLE audio technology according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention.

基本上,圖13中的個別流程的運作方式都跟前述圖11實施例中的相應流程相同。因此,圖12中的藍牙音訊廣播系統400可比照前述圖10中的藍牙音訊廣播系統400的方式,來對多個藍牙成員裝置進行音訊廣播。Basically, the operations of the individual processes in FIG. 13 are the same as the corresponding processes in the aforementioned embodiment of FIG. 11 . Therefore, the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 in FIG. 12 can perform audio broadcasting to a plurality of Bluetooth member devices in the manner of the aforementioned Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 in FIG. 10 .

然而,在音訊廣播裝置150進行音訊廣播的過程中(亦即,在音訊廣播裝置150重複進行圖13的流程222及流程224的過程中),倘若前述的多成員藍牙裝置的使用者想要調整相關藍牙成員裝置的音量大小,則使用者可對第一藍牙成員裝置110的第一觸發電路816進行特定的操作,以致使第一觸發電路816產生並傳送一使用者觸發信號給第一控制電路114。或者,使用者也可對第二藍牙成員裝置120的第二觸發電路826進行特定的操作,以致使第二觸發電路826產生並傳送一使用者觸發信號給第二控制電路124。However, during the process of audio broadcasting by the audio broadcasting device 150 (ie, during the process in which the audio broadcasting device 150 repeatedly performs the process 222 and the process 224 of FIG. 13 ), if the user of the aforementioned multi-member Bluetooth device wants to adjust the The volume of the relevant Bluetooth member device, the user can perform a specific operation on the first trigger circuit 816 of the first Bluetooth member device 110, so that the first trigger circuit 816 generates and transmits a user trigger signal to the first control circuit. 114. Alternatively, the user can also perform specific operations on the second trigger circuit 826 of the second Bluetooth member device 120 , so that the second trigger circuit 826 generates and transmits a user trigger signal to the second control circuit 124 .

倘若使用者是對第一觸發電路816進行特定的操作,則第一控制電路114可依據第一觸發電路816產生的使用者觸發信號產生一音量調整請求VAR,並利用第一無線通信電路815傳送音量調整請求VAR給主控裝置1060的通信電路1061。同樣地,倘若使用者是對第二觸發電路826進行特定的操作,則第二控制電路124可依據第二觸發電路826產生的使用者觸發信號產生一音量調整請求VAR,並利用第二無線通信電路825傳送音量調整請求VAR給主控裝置1060的通信電路1061。If the user performs a specific operation on the first trigger circuit 816 , the first control circuit 114 can generate a volume adjustment request VAR according to the user trigger signal generated by the first trigger circuit 816 , and transmit it through the first wireless communication circuit 815 . The volume adjustment request VAR is sent to the communication circuit 1061 of the main control device 1060 . Similarly, if the user performs a specific operation on the second trigger circuit 826, the second control circuit 124 can generate a volume adjustment request VAR according to the user trigger signal generated by the second trigger circuit 826, and use the second wireless communication The circuit 825 transmits the volume adjustment request VAR to the communication circuit 1061 of the master device 1060 .

與前述圖11實施例的差別之處在於,在圖13的實施例中,主控裝置1060的處理電路1065是在通信電路1061接收到第一藍牙成員裝置110或第二藍牙成員裝置120傳來的音量調整請求VAR時,進行圖13中的流程1132。The difference from the previous embodiment of FIG. 11 is that in the embodiment of FIG. 13 , the processing circuit 1065 of the main control device 1060 receives the transmission from the first Bluetooth member device 110 or the second Bluetooth member device 120 in the communication circuit 1061 . When the volume adjustment of the VAR is requested, the flow 1132 in FIG. 13 is performed.

在流程1132中,處理電路1065可依據第一藍牙成員裝置110或第二藍牙成員裝置120傳來的音量調整請求VAR,產生用來指示一音量調整方向(例如,調升或調降)的一音量調整指示,並可利用通信電路1061採用除了藍牙通信方式以外的各種無線存取技術(RAT),將音量調整指示傳送給第一藍牙成員裝置110的第一無線通信電路815、以及第二藍牙成員裝置120的第二無線通信電路825,以指示第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120同步調整音量大小。In the process 1132, the processing circuit 1065 may generate a volume adjustment direction (eg, up or down) according to the volume adjustment request VAR transmitted from the first Bluetooth member device 110 or the second Bluetooth member device 120. The volume adjustment instruction can be transmitted to the first wireless communication circuit 815 of the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth using various radio access technologies (RATs) other than the Bluetooth communication method by using the communication circuit 1061 The second wireless communication circuit 825 of the member device 120 instructs the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 to adjust the volume synchronously.

在此情況下,圖12中的第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120可進行流程前述的流程1134及流程1136,以接收主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示,並依據音量調整指示,調整相應音訊播放電路的增益值。In this case, the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 in FIG. 12 can perform the aforementioned process 1134 and process 1136 to receive the volume adjustment instruction from the master control device 1060, and adjust the volume according to the volume instruction to adjust the gain value of the corresponding audio playback circuit.

由於第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120都是依據主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示來調整音量大小,所以當第一音訊處理電路112調整第一音訊播放電路113的音量大小時,第二音訊處理電路122也會同步調整第二音訊播放電路123的音量大小。Since the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 both adjust the volume according to the volume adjustment instruction from the master device 1060 , when the first audio processing circuit 112 adjusts the volume of the first audio playback circuit 113 At the same time, the second audio processing circuit 122 also adjusts the volume of the second audio playing circuit 123 synchronously.

換言之,圖12中的藍牙音訊廣播系統400同樣允許使用者同步調整藍牙音訊廣播系統400中的相關藍牙成員裝置的音量大小。In other words, the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 in FIG. 12 also allows the user to adjust the volume of the related Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 synchronously.

與前述圖10的實施例類似,圖12中的主控裝置1060的通信電路1061可改用藍牙通信技術來傳送音量調整指示,以將音量調整指示傳送給第一藍牙成員裝置110的第一藍牙通信電路111、以及第二藍牙成員裝置120的第二藍牙通信電路121。在此情況下,第一藍牙成員裝置110可利用第一藍牙通信電路111接收主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示,而第二藍牙成員裝置120則可利用第一藍牙通信電路111接收主控裝置1060傳來的音量調整指示。如此一來,便可將圖10中的第一無線通信電路815和/或第二無線通信電路825省略。Similar to the aforementioned embodiment of FIG. 10 , the communication circuit 1061 of the master device 1060 in FIG. 12 can use the Bluetooth communication technology instead to transmit the volume adjustment instruction, so as to transmit the volume adjustment instruction to the first Bluetooth of the first Bluetooth member device 110 The communication circuit 111 and the second Bluetooth communication circuit 121 of the second Bluetooth member device 120 . In this case, the first Bluetooth member device 110 can use the first Bluetooth communication circuit 111 to receive the volume adjustment instruction from the master device 1060 , while the second Bluetooth member device 120 can use the first Bluetooth communication circuit 111 to receive the master control Volume adjustment instruction from device 1060. In this way, the first wireless communication circuit 815 and/or the second wireless communication circuit 825 in FIG. 10 can be omitted.

另外,在某些實施例中,亦可將圖8的第二藍牙成員裝置120中的第二觸發電路826省略。In addition, in some embodiments, the second trigger circuit 826 in the second Bluetooth member device 120 of FIG. 8 may also be omitted.

在主控裝置1060的通信電路1061改用藍牙通信技術來傳送音量調整指示給第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120的某些實施例中,主控裝置1060的處理電路1065可比照音訊廣播裝置150在前述圖5的流程502中的運作方式,將音量調整指示***一或多個標的資料項目中。此外,處理電路1065還可比照音訊廣播裝置150在前述圖5的流程504中的運作方式,控制通信電路1061操作在一標的傳送模式下,以將前述的一或多個標的資料項目傳送給第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120。通信電路1061在標的傳送模式下將前述的一或多個標的資料項目傳送給第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120的方式,與前述圖5中的流程504及流程506相同。為了簡潔起見,在此不重複敘述。In some embodiments in which the communication circuit 1061 of the master device 1060 uses Bluetooth communication technology to transmit the volume adjustment instruction to the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120, the processing circuit 1065 of the master device 1060 can be compared with The operation of the audio broadcasting apparatus 150 in the aforementioned process 502 of FIG. 5 is to insert the volume adjustment instruction into one or more target data items. In addition, the processing circuit 1065 can also control the communication circuit 1061 to operate in a target transmission mode, so as to transmit the aforesaid one or more target data items to the first A Bluetooth member device 110 and a second Bluetooth member device 120 . The manner in which the communication circuit 1061 transmits the aforementioned one or more target data items to the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 in the target transmission mode is the same as the aforementioned process 504 and process 506 in FIG. 5 . For the sake of brevity, the description is not repeated here.

在實際應用中,圖12中的主控裝置1060可比照前述調整第一藍牙成員裝置110或第二藍牙成員裝置120的音量大小的方式,利用音量調整指示來同步調整藍牙音訊廣播系統400中的其他藍牙成員裝置(例如,前述的第三藍牙成員裝置130及第四藍牙成員裝置140)的音量大小。但這只是一示例性的實施例,並非侷限本發明之實際實施方式。In practical applications, the master control device 1060 in FIG. 12 can use the volume adjustment instruction to synchronously adjust the volume of the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 by using the volume adjustment instruction according to the aforementioned method of adjusting the volume of the first Bluetooth member device 110 or the second Bluetooth member device 120 . Volume levels of other Bluetooth member devices (eg, the aforementioned third Bluetooth member device 130 and fourth Bluetooth member device 140 ). However, this is only an exemplary embodiment, and does not limit the actual implementation of the present invention.

實作上,藍牙音訊廣播系統400中的其他藍牙成員裝置(例如,前述的第三藍牙成員裝置130及第四藍牙成員裝置140)的音量大小,亦可改由另一個主控裝置(例如,主控裝置1070)來控制。在此情況下,第三藍牙成員裝置130及第四藍牙成員裝置140會依據主控裝置1070產生的音量調整指示,同步調整播放預定音訊資料時的音量大小。In practice, the volume levels of other Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 (eg, the aforementioned third Bluetooth member device 130 and the fourth Bluetooth member device 140 ) can also be changed by another master device (eg, main control device 1070) to control. In this case, the third Bluetooth member device 130 and the fourth Bluetooth member device 140 will synchronously adjust the volume when playing the predetermined audio data according to the volume adjustment instruction generated by the main control device 1070 .

前述有關圖10中的相關電路與裝置的實施方式及連接方式的描述,亦適用於圖12的藍牙音訊廣播系統400中。另外,由於圖13中的個別流程的運作方式,基本上都跟前述圖11實施例中的相應流程相同,因此,前述有關圖11的運作流程的描述,亦適用於圖13的實施例中。為簡潔起見,在此不重複敘述。The foregoing description about the implementation and connection of the related circuits and devices in FIG. 10 is also applicable to the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 in FIG. 12 . In addition, since the operations of the individual processes in FIG. 13 are basically the same as the corresponding processes in the foregoing embodiment of FIG. 11 , the foregoing description of the operation process of FIG. For brevity, the description is not repeated here.

由前述圖10至圖13的說明可知,在藍牙音訊廣播系統400中的多成員藍牙裝置開始播放音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音訊資料之前,第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120就會先依據音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音量指示,分別將第一音訊播放電路113及第二音訊播放電路123的音量大小,調整成接近或等於前述的預定音量大小。10 to 13, before the multi-member Bluetooth device in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 starts to play the predetermined audio data from the audio broadcasting device 150, the first Bluetooth member device 110 and the second Bluetooth member device 120 The volume of the first audio playback circuit 113 and the volume of the second audio playback circuit 123 are respectively adjusted to be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume according to the predetermined volume indication from the audio broadcasting device 150 .

因此,當第一藍牙成員裝置110開始利用第一音訊播放電路113播放音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音訊資料時,第一音訊播放電路113發出的音量大小會接近或等於前述的預定音量大小。同樣地,當第二藍牙成員裝置120開始利用第二音訊播放電路123播放音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音訊資料時,第二音訊播放電路123發出的音量大小也會接近或等於前述的預定音量大小。Therefore, when the first Bluetooth member device 110 starts to use the first audio playback circuit 113 to play the predetermined audio data from the audio broadcasting device 150, the volume output by the first audio playback circuit 113 will be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume. Similarly, when the second Bluetooth member device 120 starts to use the second audio playback circuit 123 to play the predetermined audio data from the audio broadcasting device 150, the volume of the second audio playback circuit 123 will be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume. size.

如此一來,第一音訊播放電路113及第二音訊播放電路123開始同步播放預定音訊資料時所發出的音量大小,就能讓使用者感到舒適,而不會造成使用者感到不適或不悅。In this way, when the first audio playing circuit 113 and the second audio playing circuit 123 start to play the predetermined audio data synchronously, the volume of the sound can make the user feel comfortable without causing the user to feel uncomfortable or unhappy.

此外,由於第一音訊播放電路113及第二音訊播放電路123開始同步播放預定音訊資料時的音量大小,已被預先設置成接近或等於前述的預定音量大小,所以就算音訊廣播裝置150是在使用者沒有心理預期的情況下開始進行音訊廣播,也能避免使用者因為突如其來的音訊廣播的音量過大而受到驚嚇的問題發生。In addition, since the volume levels when the first audio playback circuit 113 and the second audio playback circuit 123 start to play the predetermined audio data synchronously have been preset to be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume levels, even if the audio broadcasting device 150 is using The audio broadcast can be started without the user's psychological expectation, and the problem of the user being frightened by the sudden loudness of the audio broadcast can also be avoided.

同樣地,藍牙音訊廣播系統400中的其他藍牙成員裝置(例如,前述的第三藍牙成員裝置130及第四藍牙成員裝置140),在開始播放音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音訊資料之前,就會先依據音訊廣播裝置150傳來的預定音量指示,分別將相關的音訊播放電路(圖中未繪示)的音量大小,調整成接近或等於前述的預定音量大小。因此,藍牙音訊廣播系統400中的其他藍牙成員裝置開始同步播放預定音訊資料時所發出的音量大小,也能讓使用者感到舒適,而不會造成使用者感到不適或不悅。Similarly, other Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 (eg, the aforementioned third Bluetooth member device 130 and fourth Bluetooth member device 140 ), before starting to play the predetermined audio data from the audio broadcasting device 150 , First, according to the predetermined volume indication from the audio broadcasting device 150 , the volume of the relevant audio playback circuit (not shown in the figure) is adjusted to be close to or equal to the aforementioned predetermined volume. Therefore, the volume of the other Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 when they start to play the predetermined audio data synchronously can also make the user feel comfortable without causing the user to feel uncomfortable or unhappy.

另外,在藍牙音訊廣播系統400中的多成員藍牙裝置播放音訊廣播裝置150所廣播的音訊資料的過程中,使用者還可對主控裝置1060進行操作,以致使主控裝置1060傳送一音量調整指示給個別藍牙成員裝置(例如,前述的第一藍牙成員裝置110及第二藍牙成員裝置120),以同步調整相關藍牙成員裝置的音量大小。換言之,前述的藍牙音訊廣播系統400允許使用者同步調整藍牙音訊廣播系統400中的不同藍牙成員裝置的音量大小。In addition, during the multi-member Bluetooth device in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 playing the audio data broadcasted by the audio broadcasting device 150, the user can also operate the master control device 1060, so that the master control device 1060 transmits a volume adjustment Instruct individual Bluetooth member devices (eg, the aforementioned first Bluetooth member device 110 and second Bluetooth member device 120 ) to synchronously adjust the volume of the related Bluetooth member devices. In other words, the aforementioned Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 allows the user to adjust the volume of different Bluetooth member devices in the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 synchronously.

再者,藍牙音訊廣播系統400是採用BLE音訊技術來進行音訊廣播,而且音訊廣播裝置150可採用低複雜度通信編解碼器(LC3)對預定音訊資料進行編碼。因此,相較於傳統的音訊廣播方式而言,藍牙音訊廣播系統400所採用的前述音訊廣播方法,不僅可降低多成員藍牙裝置的耗電量,進而延長多成員藍牙裝置的使用時間,還能有效提升音訊廣播的整體音訊品質。Furthermore, the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 uses the BLE audio technology to perform audio broadcasting, and the audio broadcasting device 150 can use the low-complexity communication codec (LC3) to encode the predetermined audio data. Therefore, compared with the traditional audio broadcasting method, the aforementioned audio broadcasting method adopted by the Bluetooth audio broadcasting system 400 can not only reduce the power consumption of the multi-member Bluetooth device, thereby prolong the use time of the multi-member Bluetooth device, but also can reduce the power consumption of the multi-member Bluetooth device. Effectively improve the overall audio quality of audio broadcasting.
