    Abstract: An audio processing system, such as an upmixer, may be capable of separating diffuse and non-diffuse portions of N input audio signals. The upmixer may be capable of detecting instances of transient audio signal conditions. During instances of transient audio signal conditions, the up-mixer may be capable of adding a signal-adaptive control to a diffuse signal expansion process in which M audio signals are output. The upmixer may vary the diffuse signal expansion process over time such that during instances of transient audio signal conditions the diffuse portions of audio signals may be distributed substantially only to output channels spatially close to the input channels. During instances of non-transient audio signal conditions, the diffuse portions of audio signals may be distributed in a substantially uniform manner.

    Abstract: A method for generating a reconstructed audio signal having a baseband portion and a highband portion is disclosed. The method includes extracting temporal envelope information and spectral components of the baseband portion. The method further includes obtaining a decoded baseband audio signal. The obtaining includes filtering in a frequency domain at least some of the spectral components of the baseband portion with the reconstruction filter using the temporal envelope information to shape a temporal envelope of the baseband portion. The method also includes extracting a noise parameter and an estimated spectral envelope of the highband portion and obtaining a plurality of subband signals by filtering the decoded baseband audio signal. The method further includes generating a high-frequency reconstructed signal by copying a number of consecutive subband signals of the plurality of subband signals and obtaining an envelope adjusted high-frequency signal by adjusting, based on the estimated spectral envelope of the highband portion, a spectral envelope of the high-frequency reconstructed signal.

    Abstract: According to an aspect of the present invention, a method for reconstructing an audio signal having a baseband portion and a highband portion is disclosed. The method includes obtaining a decoded baseband audio signal by decoding an encoded audio signal and obtaining a plurality of subband signals by filtering the decoded baseband audio signal. The method further includes generating a high-frequency reconstructed signal by copying in a circular manner a number of consecutive subband signals of the plurality of subband signals and obtaining an envelope adjusted high-frequency signal by adjusting, based on an estimated spectral envelope of the highband portion, a spectral envelope of the high-frequency reconstructed signal. The method further includes generating a noise component based on a noise parameter and obtaining a combined high-frequency signal by adding the noise component to the envelope adjusted high-frequency signal. Finally, the method includes obtaining a time-domain reconstructed audio signal by combining the decoded baseband audio signal and the combined high-frequency signal to obtain a time-domain reconstructed audio signal. The method may be implemented by an audio decoding device comprising one or more hardware elements.

    Abstract: A method including steps of decoding an encoded audio signal indicative of encoded audio content (e.g., audio content captured during a teleconference) to generate a decoded signal indicative of a decoded version of the audio content, and performing adaptive quantization noise filtering on the decoded signal. The filtering is performed adaptively in the frequency domain in response to data indicative of signal to noise values in turn indicative of a post-quantization signal-to-quantization noise ratio for each frequency band of each of at least one segment of the encoded audio content. In some embodiments, each signal to noise value is a bit allocation value equal to the number of mantissa bits of an encoded audio sample of a frequency band of a segment of the encoded audio content. Other aspects are decoder, or post-filter coupled to receive a decoder's output, configured to perform an embodiment of the adaptive filtering.
