摘要:
An audio decoder for providing at least four audio channel signals on the basis of an encoded representation is configured to provide a first residual signal and a second residual signal on the basis of a jointly encoded representation of the first residual signal and of the second residual signal using a multi-channel decoding. The audio decoder is configured to provide a first audio channel signal and a second audio channel signal on the basis of a first downmix signal and the first residual signal using a residual-signal-assisted multi-channel decoding. The audio decoder is configured to provide a third audio channel signal and a fourth audio channel signal on the basis of a second downmix signal and the second residual signal using a residual-signal-assisted multi-channel decoding. An audio encoder is based on corresponding considerations.
摘要:
A multi-channel audio decoder for providing at least two output audio signals on the basis of an encoded representation is configured to perform a weighted combination of a downmix signal, a decorrelated signal and a residual signal, to obtain one of the output audio signals. The multi-channel audio decoder is configured to determine a weight describing a contribution of the decorrelated signal in the weighted combination in dependence on the residual signal. A multi-channel audio encoder for providing an encoded representation of a multi-channel audio signal is configured to obtain a downmix signal on the basis of the multi-channel audio signal, to provide parameters describing dependencies between the channels of the multi-channe! audio signal, and to provide a residual signal. The multi-channel audio encoder is configured to vary an amount of residual signal included into the encoded representation in dependence on the multi-channel audio signal.
摘要:
A frequency-domain audio codec is provided with the ability to additionally support a certain transform length in a backward-compatible manner, by the following: the frequency-domain coefficients of a respective frame are transmitted in an interleaved manner irrespective of the signalization signaling for the frames as to which transform length actually applies, and additionally the frequency-domain coefficient extraction and the scale factor extraction operate independent from the signalization. By this measure, old-fashioned frequency-domain audio coders/decoders, insensitive for the signalization, would be able to nevertheless operate without faults and with reproducing a reasonable quality. Concurrently, frequency-domain audio coders/decoders able to support the additional transform length would offer even better quality despite the backward compatibility. As far as coding efficiency penalties due to the coding of the frequency domain coefficients in a manner transparent for older decoders are concerned, same are of comparatively minor nature due to the interleaving.
