METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROVIDING A SIGNED AUDIO BITSTREAM WITH VARIABLE GRANULARITY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240323029 titled 'METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROVIDING A SIGNED AUDIO BITSTREAM WITH VARIABLE GRANULARITY
The abstract describes a method for providing a signed bitstream in the process of capturing and encoding an audio signal as a bitstream, where data units represent time segments of the audio signal. The method involves assigning scores to data units, monitoring accumulated scores back to a reference point, inserting a signature unit with a digital signature into the bitstream when a threshold is reached, and resetting the reference point. The score is based on the content of the time segment, contextual information, and conditions of capturing the segment.
- Assigning scores to data units
- Monitoring accumulated scores back to a reference point
- Inserting a signature unit with a digital signature into the bitstream
- Resetting the reference point
- Score based on content, contextual information, and capturing conditions
Potential Applications: - Audio signal processing - Digital signature verification - Data integrity in audio transmission
Problems Solved: - Ensuring data integrity in audio bitstreams - Providing a secure method for verifying audio authenticity
Benefits: - Enhanced security in audio transmission - Reliable verification of audio data - Protection against tampering
Commercial Applications: Title: Secure Audio Transmission Technology This technology can be used in industries such as music streaming services, audio recording studios, and telecommunications companies to ensure the integrity and authenticity of audio data.
Questions about Secure Audio Transmission Technology: 1. How does this method improve the security of audio data transmission? - This method enhances security by providing a digital signature for verifying the authenticity of audio data. 2. What are the potential implications of this technology in the music industry? - This technology can help prevent unauthorized tampering with audio files, ensuring the integrity of music recordings.
Original Abstract Submitted
a method of providing a signed bitstream, performed in association with a process of capturing an audio signal and encoding it as a bitstream, which includes a sequence of data units representing time segments of the audio signal. the method comprises: assigning a score to each data unit; monitoring an accumulated score of data units back to a reference point; when the accumulated score reaches a threshold, inserting into the bitstream a signature unit including a digital signature of fingerprints of a subsequence of the data units back to the reference point; and resetting the reference point. the score is based on a) a detected content of the time segment of the audio signal corresponding to the data unit, b) contextual information relating the time segment to a history of the audio signal, and/or c) information relating to the conditions of capturing the time segment.
