Abstract:

A compressed audio signal and a linear PCM signal are successfully simultaneously transmitted and reproduced. An audio signal continuous for each specified unit is transmitted to a reception side through a specified transmission line. The audio signal continuous for each specified unit is obtained by alternately arranging the audio signal in the specified unit, which includes a compressed audio signal, and the audio signal in the specified unit, which includes a linear PCM signal. For example, the specified unit is a subframe.
