    摘要: A control section (1009) receives signaling (S) indicating one of at least two coding formats (F1, F2, F3) of an M-channel audio signal (L, LS, LB, TFL, TBL), the coding formats corresponding to different partitions of the channels of the audio signal into respective first and second groups (601, 602), wherein, in the indicated coding format, first and second channels (L1, L2) of a downmix signal correspond to linear combinations of the first and second groups, respectively; and a decoding section (900) reconstructs the audio signal based on the downmix signal and associated upmix parameters (αL). In the decoding section: a decorrelation input signal (D1, D2, D3) is determined based on the downmix signal and the indicated coding format; and wet and dry upmix coefficients, controlling linear mappings of the downmix signal and a decorrelated signal, generated based on the decorrelation input signal, are determined based on the upmix parameters and the indicated coding format.

    摘要: A multiresolution coding and modulation system for preserving audio continuity in a digital wireless audio system in harsh RF environments is provided that includes an audio codec that produces codewords having bits differing in perceptual importance coupled with a non-uniform hierarchical modulation scheme. When the wireless audio system is operating in a harsh RF environment, the RF SNR for decoding bits having a high perceptual importance may be decreased while the RF SNR for decoding bits having a low perceptual importance may be increased, while having no adverse effect on the latency of the wireless audio system. The audio may be subjectively degraded instead of muting the audio, which mitigates intermittent interference and multipath fading issues.

    摘要: Codebook Arrangement for use in coding an input sound signal includes First and Second Codebook Stages. First Codebook Stage includes one of a time-domain CELP codebook and a transform-domain codebook. Second Codebook Stage follows the first codebook stage and includes the other of the time-domain CELP codebook and the transform-domain codebook. Codebook Stage includes an adaptive codebook may be provided before First Codebook Stage. A selector may be provided to select an order of the time-domain CELP codebook and the transform-domain codebook in First and Second Codebook Stages, respectively, as a function of characteristics of the input sound signal. The selector may also be responsive to both the characteristics of the input sound signal and a bit rate of the codec using Codebook Arrangement to bypass Second Codebook Stage. Codebook Arrangement can be used in a coder of an input sound signal.

    摘要: A decoding system reconstructs an audio signal based on an input signal representing the audio signal by parametric coding or by n discretely coded channels. Parametric decoding proceeds on the basis of a core signal and mixing parameters controlling a spatial synthesis stage, which is supplied with a downmix signal. A controller is responsible for controlling the components of the decoding system, whether in steady-state parametric mode, steady-state discrete decoding mode and transitions between these. In defective frames of the input signal, which do not allow the mixing parameters to be decoded, the controller is configured to perform various error handling procedures including: parametric decoding using previous values of the mixing parameters; continuing parametric decoding for a limited duration, and/or outputting the core signal without spatial synthesis.
