摘要:
A method for decoding an audio signal having a bandwidth that extends beyond a bandwidth of a CELP excitation signal in an audio decoder including a CELP-based decoder element. The method includes obtaining a second excitation signal having an audio bandwidth extending beyond the audio bandwidth of the CELP excitation signal, obtaining a set of signals by filtering the second excitation signal with a set of bandpass filters, scaling the set of signals using a set of energy-based parameters, and obtaining a composite output signal by combining the scaled set of signals with a signal based on the audio signal decoded by the CELP-based decoder element.
摘要:
Improved methods for coding an ensemble of pulse vectors utilize statistical models (i.e., probability models) for the ensemble of pulse vectors, to more efficiently code each pulse vector of the ensemble. At least one pulse parameter describing the non-zero pulses of a given pulse vector is coded using the statistical models and the number of non-zero pulse positions for the given pulse vector. In some embodiments, the number of non-zero pulse positions are coded using range coding. The total number of unit magnitude pulses may be coded using conditional (state driven) bitwise arithmetic coding. The non-zero pulse position locations may be coded using adaptive arithmetic coding. The non-zero pulse position magnitudes may be coded using probability-based combinatorial coding, and the corresponding sign information may be coded using bitwise arithmetic coding. Such methods are well suited to coding non-independent-identically-distributed signals, such as coding video information.

摘要:
A encoder/decoder architecture that uses an arithmetic encoder to encode the MSB portions of the output of a Factorial Pulse Coder, that encodes the output of a first-level source encoder, e.g., MDCT. Sub-parts (e.g., frequency bands) of portions (e.g., frames) of the signal are suitably sorted in increasing order based on a measure related to signal energy (e.g., signal energy itself). In a system that overlays Arithmetic Encoding on Factorial Pulse coding results in bits re-allocated to bands with higher signal energy content yielding higher signal quality and higher bit utilization efficiency.
