    摘要: A decoding system reconstructs an n-channel audio signal on the basis of an input signal representing the audio signal, in different time frames, either by parametric coding or as n discretely coded channels. Parametric decoding uses a core signal and mixing parameters controlling a spatial synthesis stage, to which a downmix signal is supplied from a downmix stage. The downmix stage realizes a projection on the downmix signal based on an n-channel input signal, either a discretely coded signal or a core signal padded with neutral-valued channels. The padding may take place either on the decoding side (reduced parametric coding) or the encoding side. In an embodiment, an audio decoder (110) in the decoding system pads the core signal during an initial portion of each reduced parametrically coded time frame directly succeeding a discretely coded time frame and during a final portion of each reduced parametrically coded time frame directly preceding a discretely coded time frame.

    摘要: A method for decoding an encoded audio bitstream in an audio processing system is disclosed. The method includes extracting from the encoded audio bitstream a first waveform-coded signal comprising spectral coefficients corresponding to frequencies up to a first cross-over frequency for a time frame and performing parametric decoding at a second cross-over frequency for the time frame to generate a reconstructed signal. The second cross-over frequency is above the first cross-over frequency and the parametric decoding uses reconstruction parameters derived from the encoded audio bitstream to generate the reconstructed signal. The method also includes extracting from the encoded audio bitstream a second waveform-coded signal comprising spectral coefficients corresponding to a subset of frequencies above the first cross-over frequency for the time frame and interleaving the second waveform-coded signal with the reconstructed signal to produce an interleaved signal for the time frame.

    摘要: The present invention provides improvements to prior art audio codecs that generate a stereo-illusion through post-processing of a received mono signal. These improvements are accomplished by extraction of stereo-image describing parameters at the encoder side, which are transmitted and subsequently used for control of a stereo generator at the decoder side. Furthermore, the invention bridges the gap between simple pseudo-stereo methods, and current methods of true stereo-coding, by using a new form of parametric stereo coding. A stereo-balance parameter is introduced, which enables more advanced stereo modes, and in addition forms the basis of a new method of stereo-coding of spectral envelopes, of particular use in systems where guided HFR (High Frequency Reconstruction) is employed. As a special case, the application of this stereo-coding scheme in scalable HFR-based codecs is described.
