    Abstract: A method for compressing a HOA signal being an input HOA representation with input time frames (C(k)) of HOA coefficient sequences comprises spatial HOA encoding of the input time frames and subsequent perceptual encoding and source encoding. Each input time frame is decomposed (802) into a frame of predominant sound signals (XPS(k−1)) and a frame of an ambient HOA component ({tilde over (C)}AMB(k−1)). The ambient HOA component ({tilde over (C)}AMB(k−1)) comprises, in a layered mode, first HOA coefficient sequences of the input HOA representation (cn(k−1)) in lower positions and second HOA coefficient sequences (cAMB,n(k−1)) in remaining higher positions. The second HOA coefficient sequences are part of an HOA representation of a residual between the input HOA representation and the HOA representation of the predominant sound signals.

    Abstract: A method and a device for arithmetic encoding of a current spectral coefficient using preceding spectral coefficients. The method comprises processing the preceding spectral coefficients, using the processed preceding spectral coefficients for determining a context class being one of at least two different context classes, using the determined context class and a mapping from the at least two different context classes to at least two different probability density functions for determining the probability density function, and arithmetic encoding the current spectral coefficient based on the determined probability density function wherein processing the preceding spectral coefficients comprises non-uniformly quantizing absolutes of the preceding spectral coefficients for use in determining of the context class.
