摘要:
Noise filling in perceptual transform audio codecs is improved by performing the noise filling with a spectrally global tilt, rather than in a spectrally flat manner.
摘要:
A method for processing an audio signal (100) includes processing audio frames of the audio signal at an audio decoder by filtering the frames using an audio codec postfilter for reducing a level of coding noise between signal harmonics; and using linear predictive filtering for removing (S102, S104, S300-S308, S400-S402) a discontinuity (106a, 106b) between a filtered past frame and a filtered current frame of the audio signal. The method includes filtering the current frame of the audio signal and removing the discontinuity by modifying a beginning portion of the filtered current frame by a signal obtained by linear predictive filtering a predefined signal with initial states of the linear predictive filter defined on the basis of a last part of the unfiltered past frame filtered using the set of filter parameters for filtering the current frame. The audio codec postfilter is defined as follows: H z = 1 − B z / 1 − A z ⋅ z − ⊤ where B(z) and A(z) are two FIR filters, the H(z) filter parameters are the coefficients of the FIR filters B(z) and A(z), and T indicates the pitch lag.
摘要:
An apparatus for generating time-domain audio samples or synthesis filterbank (300) comprises a calculator (310) for calculating a frame (330) comprising a sequence of intermediate time-domain samples from audio subband values of block (320). The calculator (310) is coupled to a synthesis windower (360) to which the frame (330) of intermediate time-domain samples is provided. The synthesis windower (360) is adapted to windowing the sequence of intermediate time-domain samples using a synthesis window function (370) and provides a frame (380) of windowed intermediate time-domain samples. The synthesis windower (360) is coupled to an overlap-adder output stage (400) that obtains a block (410) of time-domain samples. The block (410) of the time-domain (output) samples can then for instance be provided to further components for further processing, storing or transforming into audible audio signals.
