Music Repeater

Independent Research and Development beginning in 1980 has led to the Codex Grandeur LLC release of exclusive rights options from the Singing Wind product, to the start-up product Music Repeater. The Music Repeater is a subset component of the much larger, and many times more valuable product option Singing Wind, that will require all new consumer electronics product manufacturing system designs. The Music Repeater does not require all new consumer electronics product manufacturing system designs, requiring only conventional hardware design investment, and human assembly speeding the time to market by years. The Music Repeater can be integrated into many different manufacturing consumer electronics products with the proper licensing. The claims made in this paper are being supported by a practical demonstration being created at this time. Similar to old telegraph lines running for many miles, the original signal would degrade at a long distance, and go into a repeater that would clean up the original signal, and transmit the recovered signal. The modern internet bits per second creates a similar problem to very high performance audio and video systems. The modern day equivalent bit rate "degradation" is the bottleneck of high performance audio bit rates requiring many more times the bit rates available over average internet lines. High bit rate wireless service varies depending on current demand when and where available, possibly only achieving 6 megabits per second constant duty cycle. High performance 4K Television, and 8K Television will have problems including their 22.2 multichannel audio into 100 million bits per second internet, and Blu-ray disc. The vast majority of usable practical, affordable sustained constant duty bit rates are currently around 5 to 10 million bits per second. Ubiquitous, reliable, and affordable Giga-bit per second internet could be decades away. The Music Repeater is a new technology that allows the recording, generation, security, distribution, lossless compression, and secure streaming of music. Just as important as lossless binary digit (bit) compression, is the secured, and controlled distribution of music. This technology is designed for the transmission of Blu-ray disc, 4K Television, and 8K Television bit for bit accurate lossless music over common available moderate internet bit-rates under 100 million bits per second. The Music Repeater is also used for the mass storage of Movies, finished, and all raw material not used in final production. The reduced storage size will enable many, many copies in different locations for physical redundancy while maintaining a coded security. The Music Repeater has computers located at the source of distribution, where the audio is secure coded and lossless compressed individually-specifically for one single customer only. The audio is transmitted to that customer over the internet. If the transmission is intercepted and copied, it will still only play on that individually-specifically coded customers Music Repeater, and possibly only then for a limited time. The music is repeated to the customer with no loss in original signal, and bit for bit lossless.

Lossless music compression performance will vary with content, and on the majority of dense recordings, will be less than 2X lossless compression bit for bit. On the very same recordings, the Music Repeater will achieve over 100X+ lossless compression bit for bit. The NHK Super Hi-Vision 22.2 multichannel sound television is a practical example of the need for extreme audio quality. This will be used as a baseline reference for the performance of the Music Repeater. The 22 full frequency channels will have the low frequency effects (LFE) 0.2 channels combined for a complete 24 full frequency channel capacity. This will make comparisons easy, obvious, and over engineered. The current practical available audio recording studio format in use for decades is the 192 thousand samples per second of 24 bit sampled LPCM (192Khz-24). Each individual audio sample consist of 24 binary digits with 16,777,216 possible decimal numbers each. This occurs 192 thousand times every second requiring 24 bits every sample. Typical Internet constant duty cycle bits per second "download speed": 5,000,000 to 10,000,000 ---------- 5Mbs to 10Mbs FTTH Fibre To The Home future projected available bits per second (bps): 100,000,000 ---------- 100Mbs Each Channel: 192,000 samples per second times 24 bits per sample = 4,608,000 bits per second (bps) 24 Channels of NHK Super Hi-Vision 22.2 multichannel sound television: 4,608,000 bits per second per channel times 24 channels = 110,592,000 bits per second (bps) These are exaggerated ball park numbers, however it is obvious that the music audio alone is requiring much more than the currently available 5 to 10 million bits per second internet download speed. Any attempt to fit these music audio numbers into practical available 5 to 10 million bits per second, or even 100Mbs internet speeds always includes reducing performance, and quality with obvious negative consequences. Of course the primary intent is the 4K and 8K video that has not even been introduced into these numbers yet. 24 Channels of NHK Super Hi-Vision 22.2 multichannel sound television with Music Repeater: 110,592,000 bits per second (bps) with 100X+ Music Repeater = 1,105,920 bits per second (bps) 1,105,920 bps will fit nicely into the average available 5,000,000 bps to 10,000,000 bps with room for the compressed 4K or 8K video. The Music Repeater is currently limited to music audio only. The music audio is secure coded and lossless compressed individually-specifically for each and every single customer. The secure coding is not a separate function. Advertised extremely high bit rate wireless service will vary in actual practice depending on current demand by customers, when and where wireless service is actually available, possibly only achieving 6 megabits per second constant duty cycle for 2 hour movies.

Blu-ray Disc 4K and 8K 22.2 Multichannel Audio

Home Theaters with very expensive audio and video systems will experience dramatic differences between studio quality signals, and lossy compression signals currently sent over streaming internet services. Music Repeater creates the ability to send full complete Blu-ray disc lossless audio on top of HD lossy compressed video over low to medium speed internet bit rates typically as low as 5 to 10 megabits per second. The High Definition lossy compressed video typically consumes the majority of the bits per second available, with minimum quality lossy compression sound channels remaining. The BLU-ray disc typically generates a constant 27.648 Million bits per second LPCM native bit rate for audio. This is reduced with no loss audio bit compression by the Codex Grandeur LLC computer located at the streaming service provider. It achieves 100 plus lossless digital audio bit compression. This will allow the full sound quality of every BLU-ray and DVD disc to be streamed over typical internet bit rates with no compromise in quality. The Music Repeater will connect from the internet computer to the Home Theater surround sound system, the same as a BLU-ray or DVD player. The Home Theater surround sound system will understand the Music Repeater to be the BLU-ray disc, or DVD disc player, even though the movie is being streamed live over the internet. The Music Repeater pulls the 27.648 Million bits per second LPCM native bit rate for audio out of the remaining bits after the HD quality video has taken most of the 5 to 10 Million bits per second typically available. The Music Repeater is connected in-between the home computer with internet access, and the home theater video, and surround sound system. This will eliminate redundant user interfaces, and reduce cost of another component that requires setup. The streaming service is obtained through normal internet browser access and the signals are sent from the streaming service over the internet, to the home computer, to the Music Repeater, to the Home Theater video and surround sound system already present. The Music Repeater with the home computer will typically replace the BLU-ray disc, and DVD disc player. Inside the Music Repeater is a very powerful secure processor that works with the Codex Grandeur LLC to protect not only the streaming content from copy theft, it also protects itself from copy theft. Near future 4K, and even 8K Television with 22.2 multichannel audio is possible on existing BLU-ray Disc technology hardware, and software with the Music Repeater. Currently the Music Repeater will provide lossless 22.2 multichannel audio with existing lossy Video compression storage and playback on a Blu-ray Disc. Investment into the Codex Grandeur LLC Research and Development will create lossless video compression.
