Abstract: The present invention relates to automotive transmissions, and more particularly to controlling kickdown shifts in automotive transmissions based on accumulator feedback. A transmission control method improves shift feel during kickdown shifts. The release clutch is fully released at the initiation of the kickdown shift. The release clutch is then reapplied when the volume of the release clutch reaches a threshold capacity. The volume of the release clutch is slowly ramped down, thereby increasing turbine speed. When the turbine speed reaches a threshold, the apply clutch is actuated. The apply clutch is actuated by controlling the volume of the apply clutch according to a target volume.

Abstract: The present art relates to a decoding device and method, an encoding device and method, and a program. Said art enables more immersive, high quality sound to be achieved. The encoding device stores speaker mapping information in a comment field, which is in a PCE of an encoded bitstream, and also stores a syncword and identification information in the comment field, so that other general comments that are stored in the comment field can be differentiated from the speaker mapping information. During decoding of the encoded bitstream, using the syncword and the identification information recorded in the comment field, it is determined whether the speaker mapping information is stored, and in accordance with the speaker mapping based on the determination result, audio data contained in the encoded bitstream is output. The present art can be applied to an encoding device.
