15 // The template based AgcAudioStream implements platform-independent parts
16 // of the AudioInterface interface. Supported interfaces to pass as
17 // AudioInterface are AudioIntputStream and AudioOutputStream. Each platform-
18 // dependent implementation should derive from this class.
20 // Usage example (on Windows):
22 // class WASAPIAudioInputStream : public AgcAudioStream<AudioInputStream> {
23 // public:
24 // WASAPIAudioInputStream();
25 // ...
26 // };
28 // Call flow example:
30 // 1) User creates AgcAudioStream<AudioInputStream>
31 // 2) User calls AudioInputStream::SetAutomaticGainControl(true) =>
32 // AGC usage is now initialized but not yet started.
33 // 3) User calls AudioInputStream::Start() => implementation calls
34 // AgcAudioStream<AudioInputStream>::StartAgc() which detects that AGC
35 // is enabled and then starts the periodic AGC timer.
36 // 4) Microphone volume samples are now taken and included in all
37 // AudioInputCallback::OnData() callbacks.
38 // 5) User calls AudioInputStream::Stop() => implementation calls
39 // AgcAudioStream<AudioInputStream>::StopAgc() which stops the timer.
41 // Note that, calling AudioInputStream::SetAutomaticGainControl(false) while
42 // AGC measurements are active will not have an effect until StopAgc(),
43 // StartAgc() are called again since SetAutomaticGainControl() only sets a
44 // a state.
46 // Calling SetAutomaticGainControl(true) enables the AGC and StartAgc() starts
47 // a periodic timer which calls QueryAndStoreNewMicrophoneVolume()
48 // approximately once every second. QueryAndStoreNewMicrophoneVolume() asks
49 // the actual microphone about its current volume level. This value is
50 // normalized and stored so it can be read by GetAgcVolume() when the real-time
51 // audio thread needs the value. The main idea behind this scheme is to avoid
52 // accessing the audio hardware from the real-time audio thread and to ensure
53 // that we don't take new microphone-level samples too often (~1 Hz is a
54 // suitable compromise). The timer will be active until StopAgc() is called.
56 // This class should be created and destroyed on the audio manager thread and
57 // a thread checker is added to ensure that this is the case (uses DCHECK).
58 // All methods except GetAgcVolume() should be called on the creating thread
59 // as well to ensure that thread safety is maintained. It will also guarantee
60 // that the periodic timer runs on the audio manager thread.
61 // |normalized_volume_|, which is updated by QueryAndStoreNewMicrophoneVolume()
62 // and read in GetAgcVolume(), is protected by a lock to ensure that it can
63 // be accessed from any real-time audio thread that needs it to update the its
64 // AGC volume.
