    摘要: An enhanced blind source separation technique is provided to improve separation of highly correlated signal mixtures. A beamforming algorithm is used to precondition correlated first and second input signals in order to avoid indeterminacy problems typically associated with blind source separation. The beamforming algorithm may apply spatial filters to the first signal and second signal in order to amplify signals from a first direction while attenuating signals from other directions. Such directionality may serve to amplify a desired speech signal in the first signal and attenuate the desired speech signal from the second signal. Blind source separation is then performed on the beamformer output signals to separate the desired speech signal and the ambient noise and reconstruct an estimate of the desired speech signal. To enhance the operation of the beamformer and/or blind source separation, calibration may be performed at one or more stages.

    摘要: This disclosure describes audio mixing techniques that intelligently combine two or more audio signals into an output signal. The techniques allow audio to be combined, yet create perceptual differentiation between the different audio signals. The result is that a user is able to hear both audio signals in a combined output, but the different audio signals do not perceptually interfere with one another. The techniques are relatively simple to implement and are well suited for radio telephones.

    摘要: Power savings in a mobile device is accomplished by generating audio samples by decoding a bitstream with a decoding system within the mobile device. The generated audio samples are transferred into at least one memory bank in a set of memory banks in a power saver block within the mobile device. Parts of the decoding system not involved in the storing of the generated audio samples are switched off after batch decoding a bitstream associated with multiple audio frames. The bitstream includes bits less than that found in one audio file. At least one of the memory banks in the set of memory banks is power collapsible. The fetching of the decoded by the decoding system can be synchronized with a paging channel of a modem in the mobile device. The transferred audio samples is a lossless compression and may occur after a re-encoding.

    摘要: Encoder-assisted frame loss concealment (FLC) techniques for decoding audio signals are described. A decoder may discard an erroneous frame of an audio signal and may implement the encoder-assisted FLC techniques in order to accurately conceal the discarded frame based on neighboring frames and side-information transmitted from the encoder. The encoder-assisted FLC techniques include estimating magnitudes of frequency-domain data for the frame based on frequency-domain data of neighboring frames, and estimating signs of the frequency-domain data based on a subset of signs transmitted from the encoder as side-information. Frequency-domain data for a frame of an audio signal includes tonal components and noise components. Signs estimated from a random signal may be substantially accurate for the noise components of the frequency-domain data. However, to achieve highly accurate sign estimation for the tonal components, the encoder transmits signs for the tonal components of the frequency-domain data as side-information.

    摘要: Techniques are described for sampling rate conversion in the digital domain by up-sampling and down-sampling a digital signal according to a selected intermediate sampling frequency. A prototype anti-aliasing filter that has a bandwidth with multiple factors is stored in memory. The techniques include selecting an intermediate sampling frequency to be an integer multiple of a desired output sampling frequency of a digital signal based on the factors of the prototype filter, and selecting a down-sampling factor to be the same integer associated with the selected intermediate sampling frequency. A filter generator generates an anti-aliasing filter for the selected down-sampling factor based on the prototype filter. A sampling rate converter up-samples the digital signal at an input sampling frequency to the selected intermediate sampling frequency, filters the digital signal with the derived anti-aliasing filter, and down-samples the digital signal by the selected down-sampling factor to the desired output sampling frequency.
