Fraunhofer IIS licenses MPEG-H Audio patents to Samsung

Fraunhofer IIS announces the licensing of its MPEG-H Audio patents to Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., allowing Samsung to manufacture products that feature MPEG-H Audio.

The MPEG-H Audio system, substantially developed by Fraunhofer IIS, is specified in TV broadcast standards such as ATSC 3.0 and DVB as well as in the mobile broadband standard 3GPP. It is currently the only Next Generation Audio codec used in commercial TV broadcasting since the launch of the South Korean ATSC 3.0-based UHDTV service in May 2017.

Additionally, MPEG-H Audio was recently added to the Brazilian ISDB-Tb system to enhance the user experience with immersive audio and personalization features. Also based on MPEG-H Audio is the immersive music streaming ecosystem 360 Reality Audio, available with streaming services like Amazon Music HD, Deezer and Tidal.
