    摘要: The invention provides a concept for combined dynamic range compression and guided clipping prevention for audio devices. An audio decoder for decoding an audio bitstream and a metadata bitstream related to the audio bitstream according to the concept comprises
    an audio processing chain configured to receive a decoded audio signal derived from the audio bitstream and to adjust characteristics of the audio signal in order to produce an audio output signal, the audio adjustment chain comprising a plurality of adjustment stages including a dynamic range control stage for adjusting a dynamic range of the audio output signal and a guided clipping prevention stage for preventing clipping of the audio output signal; and
    a metadata decoder configured to receive the metadata bitstream and to extract dynamic range control gain sequences and guided clipping prevention gain sequences from the metadata bitstream, at least a part of the dynamic range control gain sequences being supplied to the dynamic range control stage, and at least a part of the guided clipping prevention gain sequences being supplied to the guided clipping prevention stage.

    摘要: An apparatus (200) for computing filter coefficients (H[k,m]) for an adaptive filter (210) is disclosed. The adaptive filter is used for filtering a microphone signal (140, 430) so as to suppress an echo due to a loudspeaker signal (130, 420). The apparatus (200) comprises: an echo decay modeling means (465) for modeling a decay behavior of an acoustic environment (120) and for providing a corresponding echo decay parameter (τ; α
    m ); and computing means (270; 370) for computing the filter coefficients (H[k,m]) of the adaptive filter (210) on the basis of the echo decay parameter (τ; α
    m ). A corresponding method comprises: providing echo decay parameters (τ; Ĝ[k,m]; α
    m ) determined by means of an echo decay modeling means (465); and computing the filter coefficients (H[k,m]) of the adaptive filter (210) on the basis of the echo decay parameters (τ; α
    m ).
