    摘要: Method and apparatus are provided for reconstructing a noise component of a speech/audio signal. A bitstream is received and decoded to obtain a speech/audio signal. A first speech/audio signal is determined according to the speech/audio signal. A symbol of each sample value in the first speech/audio signal and an amplitude value of each sample value in the first speech/audio signal is determined. An adaptive normalization length and an adjusted amplitude value of each sample value are determined according to the adaptive normalization length and the amplitude value of each sample value. A second speech/audio signal is determined according to the symbol of each sample value and the adjusted amplitude value of each sample value.

    摘要: The present technology relates to a decoding apparatus, a decoding method and a program which make it possible to obtain sound with higher quality.A demultiplexing circuit demultiplexes an input code string into a gain code string and a signal code string. A signal decoding circuit decodes the signal code string to output a time series signal. A gain decoding circuit decodes the gain code string. That is, the gain decoding circuit reads out gain values and gain inclination values at predetermined gain sample positions of the time series signal and interpolation mode information. An interpolation processing unit obtains a gain value at each sample position between two gain sample positions through linear interpolation or non-linear interpolation according to the interpolation mode based on the gain values and the gain inclination values. A gain applying circuit adjusts a gain of the time series signal based on the gain values. The present technology can be applied to a decoding apparatus.

    摘要: The present document relates to audio source coding systems. In particular, the present document relates to audio source coding systems which make use of linear prediction in combination with a filterbank. A method for estimating a first sample (615) of a first subband signal in a first subband of an audio signal is described. The first subband signal of the audio signal is determined using an analysis filterbank (612) comprising a plurality of analysis filters which provide a plurality of subband signals in a plurality of subbands from the audio signal, respectively. The method comprises determining a model parameter (613) of a signal model; determining a prediction coefficient to be applied to a previous sample (614) of a first decoded subband signals derived from the first subband signal, based on the signal model, based on the model parameter (613) and based on the analysis filterbank (612); wherein a time slot of the previous sample (614) is prior to a time slot of the first sample (615); and determining an estimate of the first sample (615) by applying the prediction coefficient to the previous sample (614).

    摘要: A sampler module divides an audio signal into a series of sequential samples. A signal quality detector module identifies, over a plurality of samples at an outset of the audio signal, a spectral variance of a first range of frequencies of the audio signal below a predetermined threshold frequency as being consistently greater than a spectral variance of a second range of frequencies of the audio signal above the predetermined threshold frequency and determines a signal treatment indication responsive to the identification. A signal enhancer module sequentially receives and analyzes one or more sample components of the audio signal to identify lost parts of the audio signal in the one or more sample components of respective sequential samples, and generates, in accordance with the signal treatment indication, a corresponding signal treatment for each of the one or more sample components of respective sequential samples having a corresponding identified lost part.

    摘要: The present document relates to audio coding systems which make use of a harmonic transposition method for high frequency reconstruction (HFR), and to digital effect processors, e.g. so-called exciters, where generation of harmonic distortion adds brightness to the processed signal. In particular, a system configured to generate a high frequency component of a signal from a low frequency component of the signal is described. The system may comprise an analysis filter bank (501) configured to provide a set of analysis subband signals from the low frequency component of the signal; wherein the set of analysis subband signals comprises at least two analysis subband signals; wherein the analysis filter bank (501) has a frequency resolution of Δf. The system further comprises a nonlinear processing unit (502) configured to determine a set of synthesis subband signals from the set of analysis subband signals using a transposition order P; wherein the set of synthesis subband signals comprises a portion of the set of analysis subband signals phase shifted by an amount derived from the transposition order P; and a synthesis filter bank (504) configured to generate the high frequency component of the signal from the set of synthesis subband signals; wherein the synthesis filter bank (504) has a frequency resolution of FΔf; with F being a resolution factor, with F≥1; wherein the transposition order P is different from the resolution factor F.
