1     Functions

Audio Analysis Transform (CAE-AAT):

Receives Audio Object  As Multichannel Audio
Transforms Multichannel Audio into frequency bands via a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The following operations are carried out in discrete frequency bands. When such a configuration is used, a 50% overlap between subsequent audio blocks needs to be employed. The output is a data structure comprising complex valued audio samples in the frequency domain.
Produces Audio Object In the Transform domain.

8     Conformance Testing

Table 2 provides the Conformance Testing Method for the CAE-AAT AIM.

If a schema contains references to other schemas, conformance of data for the primary schema implies that any data referencing a secondary schema shall also validate against the relevant schema, if present and conform with the Qualifier, if present.

Table 2 – Conformance Testing Method for CAE-AAT AIM

Receives Audio Object Shall validate against Audio Object schema.
Audio Data shall conform with Audio Qualifier.
Produces Audio Object Shall validate against Audio Object schema.
Audio Data shall conform with Audio Qualifier.
