摘要: Embodiments of the present application provide a coding/decoding method, apparatus, and system. According to the coding method, de-emphasis processing is performed on a full band signal by using a de-emphasis parameter determined according to a characteristic factor of an input audio signal, and then the full band signal is coded and sent to a decoder, so that the decoder performs corresponding de-emphasis decoding processing on the full band signal according to the characteristic factor of the input audio signal and restores the input audio signal. This resolves a prior-art problem that an audio signal restored by a decoder is apt to have signal distortion, and implements adaptive de-emphasis processing on the full band signal according to the characteristic factor of the audio signal to enhance coding performance, so that the input audio signal restored by the decoder has relatively high fidelity and is closer to an original signal.

摘要: A method and apparatus for reconstructing N audio channels from M audio channels is disclosed. The method includes receiving a bitstream containing an encoded audio signal representing the M audio channels and decoding the encoded audio signal to obtain a frequency domain representation of the M audio channels. The method further includes extracting a parameter from the bitstream and reconstructing at least one of the N audio channels using the parameter. The parameter represents an angle between two signals, at least one of which is included in the M audio channels.

摘要: In a method for coding of information for enhancing a background noise representation, voice activity of an input speech signal is determined. A noisiness parameter is determined for an inactive speech signal, wherein the noisiness parameter is based on a ratio of prediction gains of two Linear Predictive Coder (LPC) prediction filters with different orders. The noisiness parameter is quantized, and the quantized noisiness parameter is encoded for transmission.

摘要: A method and an apparatus for synthesizing an audio signal are described. A spectral tilt is applied to the code of a codebook used for synthesizing a current frame of the audio signal. The spectral tilt is based on the spectral tilt of the current frame of the audio signal. Further, an audio decoder operating in accordance with the inventive approach is described.

摘要: Many portable playback devices cannot decode and playback encoded audio content having wide bandwidth and wide dynamic range with consistent loudness and intelligibility unless the encoded audio content has been prepared specially for these devices. This problem can be overcome by including with the encoded content some metadata that specifies a suitable dynamic range compression profile by either absolute values or differential values relative to another known compression profile. A playback device may also adaptively apply gain and limiting to the playback audio. Implementations in encoders, in transcoders and in decoders are disclosed.

摘要: An apparatus for selecting one of a first encoding algorithm and a second encoding algorithm includes a filter configured to receive the audio signal, to reduce the amplitude of harmonics in the audio signal and to output a filtered version of the audio signal. First and second estimators are provided for estimating first and second quality measures in the form of SNRs of segmented SNRs associated with the first and second encoding algorithms without actually encoding and decoding the portion of the audio signal using the first and second encoding algorithms. A controller is provided for selecting the first encoding algorithm or the second encoding algorithm based on a comparison between the first quality measure and the second quality measure.

摘要: The present invention relates to a new method and apparatus for improvement of High Frequency Reconstruction (HFR) techniques using frequency translation or folding or a combination thereof. The proposed invention is applicable to audio source coding systems, and offers significantly reduced computational complexity. This is accomplished by means of frequency translation or folding in the subband domain, preferably integrated with spectral envelope adjustment in the same domain. The concept of dissonance guard-band filtering is further presented. The proposed invention offers a low-complexity, intermediate quality HFR method useful in speech and natural audio coding applications.
