Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of vehicle-mounted radios, in particular to a control method for a vehicle-mounted radio.

Background

The conventional vehicle-mounted radio has an automatic channel searching function, and the common scheme is as follows: after the automatic station searching function is executed by clicking, the radio searches the radio station by step frequency and checks and judges effective frequency points at the same time, and the frequency points meeting the conditions are stored in a list; when the radio station signal quality is poor, the radio starts a noise reduction processing mechanism with good internal solidification, and the listening effect is improved.

When a traditional vehicle-mounted radio searches a radio station, a signal of the radio station is screened and filtered by setting a fixed standard value on software, and the demodulated sound signal is subjected to noise reduction processing in a fixed mode. When the standard value is set to be too high, the phenomenon that the number of effective locking devices is small can occur, and the requirements of users cannot be met; if the standard value is set to be too low, the effective number of the locked stations can be increased, but the quality of the stations is poor, and a user feels irritated.

Therefore, the existing vehicle-mounted radio has the problem that the personalized requirements of users cannot be met when the channels are automatically searched.

Detailed Description

Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a control method for a car radio according to one embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, in one embodiment, the control method for a car radio of the present invention includes steps S10 to S40:

step S10: and receiving an automatic channel searching instruction for indicating entering a target mode. The corresponding functions can be configured through the multimedia entertainment system of the vehicle, for example, two virtual function keys for automatically searching channels are arranged on the display screen of the multimedia entertainment system and are respectively used for receiving input instructions of a target mode.

Step S20: and controlling the vehicle-mounted radio to search the radio stations at the stepping frequency and recording the first target parameters of each frequency point. Optionally, the first target parameter includes an intermediate frequency offset value (IFCOUNT), a signal strength value (LEVEL), a noise value (USN), a interference value (WAM), and a STATUS value (STATUS).

Step S30: it is determined whether the target mode included in the automatic channel search command is the quality-first mode or the number-first mode, and if the target mode is the quality-first mode, the process proceeds to step S41, and if the target mode is the number-first mode, the process proceeds to step S42. Of course, in other embodiments, more channel searching modes may be added, which is not limited herein.

Step S41: and storing the frequency points of which the first target parameters meet the first preset condition so as to ensure the quality of the searched radio station.

Step S42: and storing the frequency points of which the first target parameters meet the second preset condition so as to ensure the number of the searched radio stations.

The first preset condition in step S41 may be set to a higher criterion than the second preset condition in step S42.

Specifically, the first preset condition satisfied in the quality priority mode may be:

(1)LEVEL>60dBuV、USN<33％,WAM<33％

(2)50dBuV<LEVEL≤60dBuV、USN<27％,WAM<27％

(3)40dBuV<LEVEL≤50dBuV、USN<20％,WAM<20％

(4)30dBuV<LEVEL≤40dBuV、USN<7％,WAM<7％

the number priority mode satisfying the second preset condition may be:

(1)LEVEL>60dBuV、USN<47％,WAM<47％

(2)50dBuV<LEVEL≤60dBuV、USN<40％,WAM<40％

(3)40dBuV<LEVEL≤50dBuV、USN<33％,WAM<33％

(4)30dBuV<LEVEL≤40dBuV、USN<27％,WAM<27％

(5)20dBuV<LEVEL≤30dBuV、USN<20％,WAM<20％

the embodiment provides two channel searching modes, and can better meet the personalized requirements of users. For example, if a user needs to search for a station in a particular location, but the location is not sufficiently well signaled, the criteria may be lowered to search for stations in a number-first mode. Or the user wants to search the radio station with better sound quality quickly, and the user can select the quality priority mode to search the radio station. Because the radio station signals in each area are different, the user can select a channel searching mode according to the self requirement of the position where the user is located, so that the vehicle-mounted radio can better serve the user, the diversity requirement of the user is met, and the user experience is improved.

Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a control method for a car radio according to another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, in another embodiment, after the station search is completed, the method further includes:

step S50: and sequentially calculating the difference value of the adjacent frequency points.

Step S60: and judging whether the absolute value of the difference is smaller than a first threshold value, if so, entering a step S71, and otherwise, entering a step S72.

Step S71: and marking adjacent frequency points.

Step S72: adjacent frequency points are not marked.

Step S80: when broadcasting the station, judging whether the current station is marked, if yes, entering step S91, otherwise, entering step S92.

Step S91: and setting the middle frequency bandwidth of the marked frequency point as a second threshold value to reduce the signal interference of the adjacent station. The second threshold here may be 100 kHz.

Step S92: the default setting of the vehicle radio is adopted to play the radio station, for example, the bandwidth processing is not carried out, and the fixed 236kHz is generally selected.

When the bandwidth value of the intermediate frequency is set to be 200kHz, a station with a center frequency point of 94.2MHz (the bandwidth value occupied by most radio stations is generally 200kHz) is received, if an effective radio station exists in 94.4MHz at the time, part of signals of the radio station enter a chip, and the phenomenon of channel crosstalk is caused, namely, when the radio broadcasts the sound of the 94.2MHz radio station, the sound of the 94.4MHz radio station is mixed. At this time, if the bandwidth of the intermediate frequency is adjusted to be small, for example, set to 100kHz, the sound of the 94.4MHz station will not come into series. Therefore, interference caused by channel crossing can be effectively prevented by limiting the bandwidth of the radio stations which are relatively close to each other.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a control method for a car radio according to still another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, in some embodiments of the invention, the control method further comprises:

step S100: and when the radio station is played, acquiring a second target parameter of the currently played radio station in real time. Optionally, the second target parameter includes a signal strength value, a noise value, and an interference value.

Step S110: and calling a corresponding noise reduction model according to the second target parameter to perform noise reduction processing on the radio station. Optionally, the noise reduction model comprises one or more of stereo noise reduction (SNC), high frequency component attenuation noise reduction (HighCut) and volume noise reduction (SoftMute).

According to the embodiment, different noise reduction models are selected according to the second target parameter of the currently played radio station for noise reduction, so that the quality of the radio station can be improved more purposefully and pertinently.

In a further embodiment, step S110 includes:

step S120: judging the influence degree of the noise value and the interference value of the radio station on the strength value;

step S130: and controlling the type of the called noise reduction model, the calling starting point and the noise reduction speed according to the influence degree.

In some embodiments of the present invention, step S130 comprises:

step S131: when the degree of influence is a first intensity having substantially no influence, stereo noise reduction for noise reduction at a first noise reduction rate, high-frequency component attenuation noise reduction for noise reduction at a second noise reduction rate, and volume noise reduction for noise reduction at a third noise reduction rate are called in order as the intensity value decreases. The noise reduction model called in step S131 is simply referred to as a first noise reduction model in fig. 3.

In one embodiment, the first intensity, the second intensity, and the third intensity are determined according to a numerical magnitude relationship of the intensity value, the interference value, and the noise value. For example, when LEVEL > 0, and 0% ≦ USN < 33%, 0% ≦ WAM < 33%, the degree of influence may be considered to be a first intensity that is substantially unaffected. Under the condition, when LEVEL is less than or equal to 41dBuV and less than or equal to 60dBuV, stereo noise reduction is called to reduce the noise of the radio station, namely the separation degree is reduced and the noise is reduced, when the separation degree is reduced to 0dB, the SNC noise reduction effect is exerted to the maximum. When LEVEL is less than or equal to 26dBuV and less than 41dBuV, calling high-frequency component attenuation noise reduction to reduce noise of the radio station, when LEVEL is lower than 41dBuV, the HighCut starts to act, and the high-frequency part of the audio frequency is attenuated by adjusting the de-emphasis effect, so that the more harsh high-frequency noise in the audio frequency is reduced, the noise sounds smoother and softer without being harsh, when the LEVEL is reduced to 26dBuV, the HightCut effect is exerted to the maximum, the noise is greatly reduced, and at the moment, the audio frequency sound can be dull and not clear, bright and bright enough. And when LEVEL is less than 26dBuV and less than 10dBuV, calling volume noise reduction to reduce noise of the radio station, and when LEVEL is less than 26dBuV, starting a SoftMute noise reduction model to play a role, and reducing normal sound and noise simultaneously by adjusting the audio gain of the radio so as to improve the listening experience of a client. When LEVEL falls below 10dBuV, the volume attenuation reaches 30dB, which is essentially silent.

In one embodiment, step S130 further includes:

step S132: and when the influence degree is a second intensity with weak influence, calling stereo noise reduction at a first noise reduction rate for noise reduction when the intensity value is in a first preset interval, calling high-frequency component attenuation noise reduction at a fourth noise reduction rate for noise reduction when the intensity value is in a second preset interval, and calling volume noise reduction at a fifth noise reduction rate for noise reduction when the intensity value is in a third preset interval, wherein the first preset interval, the second preset interval and the third preset interval comprise areas with partial numerical value overlapping. The noise reduction model called in step S132 is simply referred to as a second noise reduction model in fig. 3.

In one embodiment, the second intensity with a weak degree of influence may be characterized as: LEVEL is more than or equal to 41dBuV and less than or equal to 60dBuV, USN is more than or equal to 33 percent and less than 60 percent, WAM is more than or equal to 33 percent and less than 60 percent. In general, some radio stations have weak noise, and the weak noise can be removed by the action of a noise reduction model, but the noise reduction model is accompanied by the reduction of the separation degree, the attenuation of the high-frequency part of the audio frequency and the like. When LEVEL is less than or equal to 41dBuV and less than or equal to 60dBuV, the stereo noise reduction is called to reduce the noise of the radio station. The starting point and slope of the high frequency component attenuation noise reduction and the volume noise reduction are adjusted at this time to improve the listening experience. Specifically, the calling interval for high-frequency component attenuation noise reduction is set as: LEVEL is more than or equal to 30dBuV and less than 44dBuV, and the calling interval of the volume noise reduction is set as follows: LEVEL is more than or equal to 28dBuV and less than 42 dBuV. The noise reduction rate may be adjusted to a value different from that when the influence strength is the first strength, depending on the actual situation.

In another embodiment, step S130 further includes:

step S133: and when the influence degree reaches a third intensity with larger influence, calling stereo noise reduction at a first noise reduction rate when the intensity value is in a first preset interval, calling high-frequency component attenuation noise reduction at a sixth noise reduction rate when the intensity value is in a fourth preset interval, and calling volume noise reduction at a seventh noise reduction rate when the intensity value is in a fifth preset interval, wherein the first preset interval, the fourth preset interval and the fifth preset interval comprise areas with partially overlapped numerical values. The noise reduction model called in step S133 is simply referred to as a third noise reduction model in fig. 3.

In one embodiment, the second intensity with a weak degree of influence may be characterized as: LEVEL is less than or equal to 41dBuV and less than or equal to 60dBuV, and one of USN and WAM is more than or equal to 60 percent. Although strong, this type of station has strong signal strength, but the interference and noise are also large, and the SNC alone is far from suppressing the noise, and the starting point needs to be adjusted in the case of HighCut and SoftMute. When LEVEL is less than or equal to 41dBuV and less than or equal to 60dBuV, the stereo noise reduction is called to reduce the noise of the radio station. The starting point and slope of the high frequency component attenuation noise reduction and the volume noise reduction are adjusted at this time to improve the listening experience. Specifically, the calling interval for high-frequency component attenuation noise reduction is set as: LEVEL is less than or equal to 36dBuV and less than 48dBuV, and the calling interval of the volume noise reduction is set as: LEVEL is less than or equal to 26dBuV and less than 44 dBuV. The noise reduction rate may be adjusted to a value different from that when the influence strength is the first strength, depending on the actual situation.

The type of the called noise reduction model, the calling starting point and the noise reduction rate are selected according to the influence degree of the noise value and the interference value of the radio station on the intensity value, so that different types of radio stations can be better served, and a better noise reduction effect is achieved.

The starting point, the ending point and the noise reduction rate of each noise reduction model can be measured by a radio signal generator and an audio analyzer in a laboratory. For example, two radio signal generators, one used as a signal source and one used as an interference source, can be used to simulate the radio parameters required by us. Firstly, a signal generator can be used for simulating a radio station with the frequency of 93.3MHz and the strength of 38% (the strength after conversion is 27 dBuV); then, the signal of another signal generator is mixed as an interference source, and a station with 33% of noise (USN) and 40% of interference (WAM) can be called out on the basis of the original signal parameters. And then the parameters such as noise, distortion, signal to noise ratio and the like of the audio signal are measured by matching with an audio analyzer, so that a noise reduction model matched with different signal parameters can be obtained.

Thus, it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that while a number of exemplary embodiments of the invention have been illustrated and described in detail herein, many other variations or modifications consistent with the principles of the invention may be directly determined or derived from the disclosure of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of the invention should be understood and interpreted to cover all such other variations or modifications.
