[0039] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application. In the case of no conflict, each of the following embodiments and technical features can be combined with each other.

[0040] The first aspect of the present application provides a temperature prediction method of an audio playing device, the audio playing device comprising a voice coil circuit (i.e. a circuit in which a voice coil is located), and the temperature prediction method of the audio playing device can be used for temperature parameters such as voice coil temperature of the voice coil circuit. Referring to Figure 1 The temperature prediction method of the audio playing device comprises steps S110 to S140.

[0041] S110, predicting a priori estimated temperature of the audio playing device by using a temperature thermal model of the audio playing device in thermal response, wherein the temperature thermal model uses thermal capacity and thermal resistance to represent temperature characteristics of the audio playing device in thermal response.

[0042] The audio playing device can comprise a miniature loudspeaker, a speaker, and / or a sound equipment for playing audio. The thermal response comprises a process of the audio playing device doing work and generating heat, i.e. a working process of the audio playing device. The temperature characteristics comprise temperature distribution characteristics, temperature conduction characteristics, and / or temperature change characteristics, etc. The temperature thermal model can also be referred to as an equivalent thermal circuit, and the number of groups of thermal capacity and thermal resistance included in the temperature thermal model can be set according to the required prediction accuracy and the structural characteristics of the corresponding voice coil circuit. The order of the temperature thermal model is consistent with the number of groups of thermal capacity and thermal resistance, for example, the temperature thermal model comprising two groups of thermal capacity and thermal resistance is a second-order temperature thermal model, the temperature thermal model comprising three groups of thermal capacity and thermal resistance is a third-order temperature thermal model, the temperature thermal model comprising four groups of thermal capacity and thermal resistance is a fourth-order temperature thermal model, and so on.

[0043] The aforementioned temperature thermal model specifically characterizes the relationship between the current temperature and the historical temperature at least one time prior to the current time. Step S110 inputs the historical temperature into the temperature thermal model to obtain the prior estimated temperature corresponding to the current time, thus improving the timeliness of the obtained prior estimated temperature.

[0044] S120, the prior estimated temperature is converted into a predicted electrical signal using a first measurement matrix corresponding to the audio playback device. The first measurement matrix is ​​used to measure at least one electrical signal of the audio playback device during thermal response. Specifically, the prior estimated temperature can be converted to obtain the desired electrical signal.

[0045] The first measurement matrix can be set according to the type of electrical signal to be measured. Optionally, when measuring a current signal, the first measurement matrix can be set according to the pilot voltage and / or pilot current of the audio playback device. In this case, the first measurement matrix H can include: H = [f(Vf)], where f(Vf) represents a function of the pilot voltage Vf as input. Specifically, the pilot current and pilot voltage can be obtained by means of pilot signal extraction, etc. For example, the process of obtaining the pilot current and pilot voltage includes: detecting the current and voltage during the thermal response of the audio playback device, obtaining the detected current and detected voltage, and extracting pilot signals from the detected current and detected voltage to obtain the pilot current and pilot voltage. Optionally, when measuring a resistance signal, the first measurement matrix can be set according to the impedance change characteristics of the audio playback device.

[0046] S130, obtain the prediction error corresponding to the predicted electrical signal; the prediction error may include parameters that characterize the error generated when obtaining the predicted electrical signal, such as the difference between the predicted electrical signal and the corresponding calculated value.

[0047] S140, the prior estimated temperature is smoothed based on the prediction error to obtain the predicted temperature of the audio playback device, making the obtained predicted temperature smoother and more stable, thus avoiding problems such as jitter and / or sudden changes that affect the subsequent control effect. Optionally, the smoothing method can be set according to factors such as the required filtering accuracy, and may include smoothing filtering methods such as correlated fuzzing and / or Kalman filtering.

[0048] The temperature prediction method of the audio playing device adopts a temperature thermal model of the audio playing device in thermal response to predict a priori estimated temperature of the audio playing device, so that the obtained priori estimated temperature has a forward-looking nature, converts the priori estimated temperature into a predicted electrical signal by using a first measurement matrix for measuring at least one electrical signal of the audio playing device in thermal response, obtains a prediction error corresponding to the predicted electrical signal, and smoothes the priori estimated temperature by using the prediction error to obtain a predicted temperature of the audio playing device, so that the predicted temperature is more smooth and stable, and the problem of affecting the subsequent control effect caused by jitter and / or mutation can be avoided. It can be seen that the temperature prediction method of the audio playing device not only improves the timeliness of the obtained predicted temperature, but also improves the smoothness and stability of the predicted temperature, thereby improving the effect of subsequent parameter control and / or temperature protection by using the predicted temperature.

[0049] In one embodiment, the temperature thermal model adopts at least three sets of heat capacity and thermal resistance to characterize the temperature change characteristics of the audio playing device in thermal response, so as to improve the fitting degree between the characterized temperature characteristics and the actual temperature characteristics of the voice coil circuit in the audio playing device, so that the temperature thermal model can accurately reflect each temperature characteristic of the voice coil circuit.

[0050] Optionally, the temperature thermal model includes three sets of heat capacity and thermal resistance, and the temperature thermal model is a third-order temperature thermal model. Referring to Figure 2 As shown, the third-order temperature thermal model includes a power supply DC, a first heat capacity C1, a second heat capacity C2, a third heat capacity C3, a first thermal resistance R1, a second thermal resistance R2, and a third thermal resistance R3. The power supply DC, the first heat capacity C1, the second heat capacity C2, and the third heat capacity C3 are connected in parallel. The first thermal resistance R1 is connected between the first end of the first heat capacity C1 and the first end of the second heat capacity C2. The second thermal resistance R2 is connected between the first end of the second heat capacity C2 and the first end of the third heat capacity C3. The third thermal resistance R3 is connected between the first end and the second end of the third heat capacity C3. The second ends of the first heat capacity C1, the second heat capacity C2, and the third heat capacity C3 are connected to ground. The corresponding voice coil circuit includes a voice coil and a magnet, as shown in Figure 2As shown, in the third-order temperature thermal model, through the power supply DC, a power P first passes through the first thermal capacity C1 and the first thermal resistance R1 representing the voice coil, causing the voice coil temperature Tvc to rise; then passes through the second thermal capacity C2 and the second thermal resistance R2 representing the voice coil gap, causing the loudspeaker voice coil gap temperature Tg to rise; then passes through the third thermal capacity C3 and the third thermal resistance R3 representing the magnet, causing the magnet temperature Tm to rise; and finally, the power P flows to the ambient temperature Ta, discharging heat to the external environment of the voice coil circuit. The above-mentioned third-order temperature thermal model has a simple structure, and on the basis of ensuring the overall fit between the temperature characteristics represented by the third-order temperature thermal model and the actual temperature characteristics of the voice coil circuit, the efficiency of predicting the corresponding priori estimated temperature using the third-order temperature thermal model can be improved. It should be noted that in some audio playback devices such as loudspeakers, the voice coil magnet and the voice coil magnet gap will not be damaged due to excessive temperature, so the guidance of these two temperatures is usually not required for the corresponding voice coil protection algorithm. In this case, the temperature to be predicted includes the voice coil temperature, so as to guide the subsequent voice coil protection algorithm using the predicted voice coil temperature.

[0051] In one example, the temperature thermal model can predict the priori estimated temperature through a temperature prediction formula to simplify the prediction process and improve the prediction efficiency. Specifically, the temperature prediction formula corresponding to the temperature thermal model includes: wherein, represents the priori estimated temperature at the i-th moment (such as the current moment), Te i-1 represents the predicted temperature at the (i-1)-th moment, A represents the transition matrix of the temperature thermal model, B represents the control matrix of the temperature thermal model, and u i represents the power of the playback device at the i-th moment. Alternatively, the power u i at the i-th moment can be determined according to the detected current and / or predicted resistance at the i-th moment, for example, and the like, Im i represents the detected current at the i-th moment, which can be obtained by current detection of the audio playback device, and Re represents the predicted current at the i-th moment, which can be obtained by measurement or conversion using a corresponding measurement matrix (such as a first measurement matrix).

[0052] The parameters such as the transition matrix A and the control matrix B in the above-mentioned temperature prediction formula can be converted from the heat conduction function corresponding to the temperature thermal model. Taking Figure 2 the third-order temperature thermal model as an example, the heat conduction function of the third-order temperature thermal model in the s domain can be written as: wherein the conduction coefficients a1, a2, a3, b1, b2 and b3 can be obtained by transformation from the first thermal capacity C1, the second thermal capacity C2, the third thermal capacity C3, the first thermal resistance R1, the second thermal resistance R2 and the third thermal resistance R3, T vcrepresents a temperature to be predicted, such as a priori estimated temperature, and the like, and P represents a power corresponding to the third-order temperature thermal model. The heat conduction function is normalized to obtain the following identity equation: G(s) = C(sI-A) -1 B+D, which can also be referred to as a state space equation, where A represents a transition matrix of the temperature thermal model, B represents a control matrix of the temperature thermal model, C represents a second measurement matrix of the temperature thermal model, which is used to measure temperature parameters corresponding to the third-order temperature thermal model and can be determined according to the third-order temperature thermal model, and D = 0 for a single-input single-output audio playback device. The state space equation is discretized to obtain a corresponding discrete form, which includes:

[0053]

[0054] where x i represents an intermediate state of the i-th iteration, y i represents a measurement value of the intermediate state at the i-th iteration, u i represents a power at the i-th iteration.

[0055] Solving the discrete form of the state space equation can obtain the transition matrix A and the control matrix B of the temperature thermal model, and further determine a corresponding temperature prediction formula.

[0056] In an embodiment, the conversion formula of the predicted electrical signal includes: wherein, represents a priori estimated temperature at the i-th iteration, H represents a first measurement matrix, and De i represents a predicted electrical signal at the i-th iteration. The first measurement matrix H is used to accurately convert the a priori estimated temperature in this embodiment, so as to efficiently obtain the required predicted electrical signal. On the basis of ensuring the accuracy of the obtained predicted electrical signal, the corresponding prediction efficiency can be improved.

[0057] In an embodiment, the predicted electrical signal includes a predicted current; the corresponding predicted error of the predicted electrical signal includes: Figure 1 as shown in step S130, the acquisition of the predicted error of the predicted electrical signal includes: E i = If i -Ie i wherein, E i represents a predicted error at the i-th iteration, If i represents a pilot current at the i-th iteration, and Ie i represents a predicted current at the i-th iteration. The current is used as the predicted signal in this embodiment, and the difference between the pilot current and the predicted current can be directly determined as the predicted error, so as to improve the determination efficiency of the predicted error.

[0058] Optionally, using the predicted current as the predicted electrical signal, the temperature prediction process for the audio playback device can be referenced. Figure 3 As shown, during the thermal response of the audio playback device, the device is detected to obtain the detection current Im and the detection voltage Vm. Pilot signals are extracted from the detection current Im and the detection voltage Vm to obtain the pilot current If and the pilot voltage Vf. The power u of the audio playback device is obtained based on the detection current Im, and the power u is input into the temperature thermal model to predict the prior estimated temperature Te. - The first measurement matrix H is determined based on the pilot voltage Vf, and the a priori estimated temperature Te is transformed using the first measurement matrix H. - The predicted current Ie is obtained, and the prediction error E is calculated according to E = If - Ie; the prediction error E is used to estimate the prior temperature Te. - Smoothing is performed to obtain the predicted temperature Te. Optionally, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the power calculation formula for the power acquisition process of the predicted temperature Te can also be used to determine the electrical signal corresponding to the predicted temperature Te, and the power u can be calculated based on these electrical signals. For example, the predicted temperature Te can be determined to correspond to the group Re(Te), where u = Im 2 *Re(Te) is used to ensure the accuracy of the obtained power u. Specifically, the temperature Te is estimated a priori using the first measurement matrix H transformation. - The conversion formulas corresponding to the predicted current Ie include: The first measurement matrix H is the equation for the pilot voltage Vf, i.e., H = [f(Vf)]. The principle behind this transformation formula can include: transforming the prior estimated temperature Te through a linear transformation. - The voltage is then converted to the corresponding resistor, and the predicted current Ie is obtained through voltage and resistance calculations.

[0059] In one embodiment, the predicted electrical signal includes a predicted resistance; corresponding to Figure 1 Step S130, as shown, involves obtaining the prediction error corresponding to the predicted electrical signal, which includes: obtaining the detection resistance of the audio playback device; and determining the prediction error based on the difference between the detection resistance and the predicted resistance. This embodiment uses the predicted resistance as the predicted electrical signal, making the form of the corresponding first measurement matrix simpler. This simplifies the first measurement matrix and reduces the computational load in the process of converting the prior estimated temperature into the predicted resistance using the first measurement matrix, thereby improving the corresponding temperature prediction efficiency. The aforementioned detection resistance can be calculated based on the pilot current and pilot voltage, for example, by determining the detection resistance based on the quotient of the pilot voltage and pilot current. The formula for calculating the prediction error may include: E i =Rm i -Re i , Rm i Re represents the detection resistance at time i. irepresents the predicted resistance at the i-th moment.

[0060] Optionally, the temperature prediction process of the audio playing device can refer to the predicted resistance as the predicted electric signal Figure 4 As shown, when the audio playing device is in thermal response, the audio playing device is detected to obtain a detection current Im and a detection voltage Vm, pilot signal extraction is performed on the detection current Im and the detection voltage Vm to obtain a pilot current If and a pilot voltage Vf, and the detection resistance Rm is calculated according to the pilot current If and the pilot voltage Vf; the power u of the audio playing device is obtained according to the detection current Im, and the prior estimated temperature Te is predicted by inputting the power u into the temperature thermal model - ; the first measurement matrix H is used to transform the prior estimated temperature Te - to obtain the predicted resistance Re, the prediction error E is calculated according to E=Rm-Re; the prediction error E is used to smooth the prior estimated temperature Te - to obtain the predicted temperature Te. Optionally, the first measurement matrix H can be directly determined according to the resistance characteristics corresponding to the temperature thermal model, and has a relatively simple form. The first measurement matrix H is used to transform the prior estimated temperature Te - to obtain the conversion formula corresponding to the predicted resistance Re, which includes: The principle of the conversion formula can include that the first measurement matrix H can transform the prior estimated temperature Te - to the predicted resistance Re through linear transformation.

[0061] In one embodiment, corresponding to Figure 1 Step S140 shown, the smoothing processing of the prior estimated temperature according to the prediction error to obtain the predicted temperature of the audio playing device includes: Wherein, represents the prior estimated temperature at the i-th moment, Te i represents the predicted temperature at the i-th moment, E i represents the prediction error at the i-th moment, K i represents the smoothing processing coefficient at the i-th moment. This embodiment realizes the smoothing processing of the prior estimated temperature through the weighted calculation mode, can simplify the smoothing processing process and improve the smoothing processing efficiency on the basis of ensuring the smoothing processing effect, so as to improve the temperature prediction efficiency. The smoothing processing coefficient K i at the i-th moment can be set according to the accuracy of the smoothing processing and other factors. Optionally, the smoothing processing coefficient K i can be set according to the relevant experience value to improve the setting efficiency; also set through multiple test processes to ensure the accuracy of the set smoothing processing coefficient K i ; also can be set in an iterative filtering mode to make the smoothing processing coefficient K iBased on the relevant operating parameters of the audio playback device (such as historical operating parameters, etc.), the smoothing effect is improved.

[0062] In one example, the process of determining the smoothing coefficients includes: updating the prior error covariance at time i based on the transition matrix of the temperature thermal model and the error covariance at time i-1; and calculating the smoothing coefficients at time i based on the prior error covariance at time i, a preset noise covariance matrix, and the first measurement matrix. This example updates the prior error covariance at time i based on the transition matrix of the temperature thermal model and the error covariance at time i-1, ensuring that the prior error covariance at time i is based on the relevant parameters of the temperature thermal model, thus improving the accuracy of the update process. Calculating the smoothing coefficients at time i based on the prior error covariance at time i, the preset noise covariance matrix, and the first measurement matrix improves the correlation between the smoothing coefficients and the relevant parameters and historical parameters of the temperature thermal model. Using Kalman filtering to smooth the prior estimated temperature improves the smoothing effect, saves on corresponding hardware costs, avoids errors caused by inaccuracies, and offers advantages such as low latency and low disturbance compared to temperature acquisition methods that only use pilot tones to calculate temperature.

[0063] Specifically, the update formula for the prior error covariance includes: The formulas for calculating the smoothing factor include: in, Let P represent the prior error covariance at time i, A represent the transition matrix of the temperature thermal model, and P represent the prior error covariance at time i. i-1 Let K represent the error covariance at time i-1, Q represent the process noise covariance matrix, and K represent the error covariance at time i-1. i Let H represent the smoothing coefficient at time i, H represent the first measurement matrix, R represent the noise covariance matrix, and the superscript T represent the transpose. Here, the smoothing coefficient can be calculated using the update formula for the prior error covariance and the calculation formula for the smoothing coefficient, thus achieving Kalman filtering corresponding to the prior estimated temperature and further improving the smoothing effect.

[0064] In one example, corresponding to Figure 1 As shown in step S140, after smoothing the prior estimated temperature based on the prediction error to obtain the predicted temperature of the audio playback device, the temperature prediction method further includes: updating the error covariance at time i based on the smoothing coefficient at time i, the prior error covariance at time i, and the first measurement matrix, so that the smoothing coefficient can be accurately and efficiently obtained at time i+1 based on the error covariance at time i, ensuring the continuity of the corresponding smoothing process and the filtering effect.

[0065] Specifically, the update formula for the error covariance includes: wherein P i represents the error covariance at the i-th moment, represents the prior error covariance at the i-th moment, I represents a unit matrix, and K i represents the smoothing coefficient at the i-th moment, and H represents the first measurement matrix.

[0066] In the process of Kalman filtering on the prior estimated temperature to achieve smoothing, the smoothing coefficient can also be referred to as Kalman gain. In one example, the smoothing coefficient is calculated by Figure 5 The above Kalman filtering process is described as shown in Figure 5 shown, first determine the process noise covariance matrix Q and the noise covariance matrix R by multiple debugging, input the noise covariance matrix into the update formula of the prior error covariance to calculate the error covariance, obtain the prior error covariance, input the prior error covariance and the noise covariance matrix R into the calculation formula of the smoothing coefficient to calculate the smoothing coefficient, obtain the smoothing coefficient at the current moment (such as the smoothing coefficient at the i-th moment), and then update the error covariance using the smoothing coefficient at the current moment to calculate the smoothing coefficient at the next moment according to the updated error covariance, and realize the corresponding Kalman filtering.

[0067] In one example, the inventors compare and analyze the temperature of the loudspeaker, an audio playing device, and specifically obtain the measured temperature of the voice coil circuit of the loudspeaker.
