摘要： When coding and decoding stereophonic spectral values, both the intensity stereo process and a prediction process are used to achieve a high data compression. When an intensity stereo coding is active in a section composed of scaling factor bands (28), prediction for the right channel (R) is deactivated in this area, so that the prediction results are not used to build the coded stereophonic spectral values. The predictor of the right channel (R) is supplied with stereophonic spectral values for this channel which are in turn decoded by an intensity stereo process, so that prediction for the right channel (R) can continue to adapt itself.

摘要： In order to measure the fidelity of stereophonic audio signals, a stereophonic signal is used as reference signal (X) and a signal to be tested (X') is created by processing the reference signal (X), for example by coding then decoding the reference signal (X). Both signals (X, X') are transformed into the frequency range in order to create spectral data that are representative of each partial band (i). Signal values (Gi; Gi') for each partial band (i) of both reference signal (X) and signal to be tested (X') are determined from the spectral data of the channels (L, R) of the reference signal or signal to be tested. Conclusions are made about the fidelity of the stereophonic audio signals processed or coded by using a determined processing or coding technique from the comparison of the characteristic values (Gi; Gi') of signals belonging to the same partial band (i).

摘要： When several signals (k1, k2) that are not independent from each other are coded, the appropriate type of coding is selected depending on a similarity measurement. In one aspect of the invention, the similarity measurement is determined by one of the signals (k1, k2) being at first coded according to the intensity stereo process and then decoded, in order to create a signal (ki1, ki2) affected by a coding error. Said signal and the corresponding non-coded signal are then transformed into the frequency range. The actually audible spectral components of both the signals (ki1, ki2) affected by a coding error and the corresponding signal (k1, k2) unaffected by a coding error are selected or evaluated in the frequency range by using a listening threshold determined by a psychoacoustic calculation. When the degree of similarity is high, an intensity stereo coding process is carried out, otherwise the channels are separately coded.

摘要： Dispositif pour le contrôle de systèmes de traitement de signaux sonores présentant les caractéristiques suivantes: Le dispositif comporte une première borne d'entrée, au niveau de laquelle est appliqué le signal d'entrée du système de traitement de signaux sonores à contrôler, une deuxième borne d'entrée, au niveau de laquelle est appliqué le signal de sortie du système, et un processeur de signaux. Le processeur de signaux calcule, par corrélation entre les deux signaux présents aux deux bornes d'entrée, le retard du signal du système à contrôler. Le processeur de signaux produit en permanence un signal différentiel à partir du signal présent pendant une période déterminée au niveau de la première borne d'entrée et du signal présent ensuite au niveau de la deuxième borne d'entrée après une période égale au retard du signal. Le processeur de signaux calcule la composition spectrale du signal présent pendant la période déterminée au niveau de la première borne d'entrée et celle du signal différentiel correspondant. A partir de la composition spectrale du signal présent au niveau de la première borne d'entrée, le processeur de signaux calcule le seuil d'audition de l'oreille humaine et le compare au signal différentiel correspondant.

摘要： The invention relates to a method for extracting a signal identifier from a time signal, according to which the temporal occurrence of signal edges is detected in the time signal (12), whereby a signal edge has a specified temporal length. In addition, the temporal interval between two selected detected signal edges is determined (14). A frequency value is calculated (16) from said determined interval and is assigned to a time of occurrence of the frequency value in the time signal in order to obtain a co-ordinate tuple from the frequency value and the time of occurrence for said frequency value. A signal identifier is created from a plurality of co-ordinate tuples (18), each co-ordinate tuple containing a frequency value and a time of occurrence, in such a way that the signal identifier comprises a sequence of signal identifier values, which reproduce the temporal course of the time signal. The extracted signal identifier is based on signal edges of the time signal and reproduces the temporal course of the time signal. The signal identifier thus characterises the time signal and is stable in relation to changes to said time signal.

摘要： An inventive method for introducing information into a data stream including data about spectral values representing a short-term spectrum of an audio signal first performs a processing of the data stream to obtain the spectral values of the short-term spectrum of the audio signal. Apart from that, the information to be introduced are combined with a spread sequence to obtain a spread information signal, whereupon a spectral representation of the spread information is generated which will then be weighted with an established psychoacoustic maskable noise energy to generate a weighted information signal, wherein the energy of the introduced information is substantially equal to or below the psychoacoustic masking threshold. The weighted information signal and the spectral values of the short-term spectrum of the audio signal will then be summed and afterwards processed again to obtain a processed data stream including both audio information and information to be introduced. By the fact that the information to be introduced are introduced into the data stream without changing to the time domain, the block rastering underlying the short-term spectrum will not be touched, so that introducing a watermark will not lead to tandem encoding effects.

摘要： The invention makes it possible to combine a scaleable audio coder with TNS technology. According to the inventive method for encoding time signals (x1) sampled in a first sampling rate, second time signals (x2) with a sampling rate smaller than the first sampling rate are generated (12). The second time signals (x2) are then encoded (14) according to a first coding algorithm, and written into a bit stream (xAUS) (16). The encoded second time signals (x2c) are then decoded (14) again and are transformed (23, 24) into the frequency range, as are the first time signals. TNS prediction coefficients are then calculated (25) from a spectral representation of the first time signals (X1). The transformed output signal (X2cd) of the coder/decoder (14) with the first coding algorithm and the spectral representation (X1) of the first time signal are subjected to a prediction of the frequency (27) in order to obtain spectral residual values for both signals using the prediction coefficients calculated on the basis of the first time signals alone. These two signals are evaluated against each other (26, 28). The evaluated spectral residual values (Xb) are then encoded by means of a second coding algorithm in order to obtain coded evaluated spectral residual values (Xcb). These evaluated spectral residual values are written into the bit stream (xAUS) in addition to side information with the prediction coefficients.
