    Abstract: Disclosed are some examples of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products implementing techniques for extending the range of a set of decoded parameter values for a sequence of frequency bands in an identifiable time frame of an audio signal. In some implementations, the parameter values vary in relation to a sequence of time frames of the audio signal and in relation to a sequence of frequency bands in each time frame. In some implementations, it is determined that a decoded value corresponds to a minimum of a first range of values of a first coding protocol of a set of coding protocols. The determined value is modified to be below the minimum of the first range of values to produce an extended value. A modified set of decoded values including one or more extended values can thus be provided.

    Abstract: An audio communication endpoint receives a bitstream containing spectral components representing spectral content of an audio signal, wherein the spectral components relate to a first range extending up to a first break frequency, above which any spectral components are unassigned. The endpoint adapts the received bitstream in accordance with a second range extending up to a second break frequency by removing moving spectral components or adding neutral-valued spectral components relating to a range between the first and second break frequencies. The endpoint then attenuates spectral content in a neighbourhood of the least of the first and second break frequencies for thereby achieving a gradual spectral decay. After this, reconstructing the audio signal is reconstructed by an inverse transform operating on spectral components relating to said second range in the adapted and attenuated received bitstream. At small computational expense, the endpoint may to adapt to different sample rates in received bitstreams.

    Abstract: There is provided encoding and decoding methods for encoding and decoding of object based audio. An exemplary decoding method described is for reconstructing audio objects based on a data stream, wherein the data stream corresponds to a plurality of time frames, wherein the data stream comprises a plurality of side information instances, wherein the data stream further comprises, for each side information instance, transition data including two independently assignable portions which in combination define a point in time to begin a transition from a current reconstruction setting to a desired reconstruction setting specified by the side information instance, and a point in time to complete the transition.

    Abstract: The present document relates to the field of encoding and decoding of audio. In particular, the present document relates to encoding and decoding of an audio scene comprising audio objects. A method (400) for encoding metadata relating to plurality of audio objects (106a) of an audio scene (102) is described. The metadata comprises a first set (114, 314) of metadata and a second set (104) of metadata. The first and second sets (104, 114, 314) of metadata comprise one or more data elements which are indicative of a property of an audio object (106a) from the plurality of audio objects (106a) and/or of a downmix signal (112) derived from the plurality of audio objects (106a). The method (400) comprises identifying (401) a redundant data element which is common to the first and second sets (104, 114, 314) of metadata. Furthermore, the method comprises encoding (402) the redundant data element of the first set (114, 314) of metadata by referring to a redundant data element of a set (104) of metadata external for the first set (114, 314) of metadata.
