A sound reproduction and amplification system includes a digital central controller, a wireless transmitter and a plurality of addressable wireless digital receivers and digital amplifiers for driving loudspeakers or earphones, wherein Differential Pulse Width Modulation (DPWM) signals from the central control of the audio transmitter are sent to the addressable receivers, but no DPWM signals are sent unless there are changes in the target PWM signals. The control signaling is based on position mapping in each repetitive sequence of bits (i.e., each frame or word) in a digital communication channel, where only a single bit per channel per word is allotted to each receiver/amplifier/loudspeaker. If there is any change in output of any transmitter PWM from the audio processor (decoder), all the channel bits are sent to all the addressable loudspeakers.
A multiple channel wireless audio system comprising:
An addressable wireless digital audio receiver module for a multiple channel digital audio system having a wireless transmitter for conveying multiplexed multiple-channel pulse width modulated audio stream operative to address said addressable receiver, for use with a digital audio amplifier associated with each speaker in said audio system, said receiver comprising:
An addressable wireless digital audio receiver module for a multiple channel digital audio system having a wireless transmitter for conveying multiplexed multiple-channel pulse width modulated audio stream operative to address said addressable receiver, wherein said speaker includes an associated sound output element coupled to said digital audio amplifier, said receiver comprising:
A multiple channel wireless audio transmitter for a wireless audio system comprising:
An addressable wireless digital audio receiver module for a multiple channel digital audio system having a wireless transmitter for conveying multiplexed multiple-channel pulse width modulated audio stream operative to address said addressable receiver, comprising:
A method for transporting multiple channel wireless audio comprising:
An addressable wireless digital audio receiving method for a multiple channel digital audio system having a wireless transmitter for conveying multiplexed multiple-channel pulse width modulated audio stream operative to address said addressable receiver, for use with a digital audio amplifier associated with each speaker in said audio system, said method comprising:
