    摘要： The invention relates to an audio encoder and decoder and methods for audio encoding and decoding. In a preferred encoder embodiment an audio signal is encoded by deterministic encoder means to form a first encoded signal part. A spectrum of the audio signal is determined and represented by an excitation pattern, i.e. spectral values corresponding to human auditory filters, as a second encoded signal part. A masking curve is also extracted based on the excitation pattern, thus improving encoding efficiency in terms of bit rate. In a preferred decoder the first encoded signal part is decoded by deterministic decoder means. A noise generator uses the decoded first signal part together with the second signal part, i.e. the excitation pattern for the original audio signal, to generate a noise signal. The noise signal is then added to the first decoded signal part to form an output audio signal. At the decoder side the masking curve is also extracted based on the second encoded signal part, i.e. the excitation pattern. The noise signal is generated so that the output audio signal exhibits an excitation pattern nearly identical to the original audio signal. Thus, a perceived high quality audio is obtained while the encoded signal is scalable since a possible deviation between encoding and decoding of the first signal part is compensated by the noise generator at the decoder side. In preferred embodiments the coding means comprises a sinusoidal coder.

    摘要： An audio encoder in which two or more preferably different encoders cooperate to generate a joint encoded audio signal. Encoding parameters of the two or more encoders are optimized in response to a measure of distortion of the joint encoded audio signal in accordance with a predetermined criterion. The distortion. measure is preferably a perceptual distortion measure. In one encoder embodiment comprising a sinusoidal and a waveform encoder, a constant total bit rate for each audio frame is distributed between the two encoders so as to minimize perceptual distortion for both the first and the second encoder. Other embodiments consider a set of encoding parameters that is larger than only those that minimize the perceptual distortion of the first encoder. In some embodiments, perceptual distortion may be minimized by optimizing encoding via optimizing entire encoding templates, i.e. a complex set of encoding parameters, for the separate encoders. The separate encoders may either be cascaded or operate in parallel, or in a combination of these. Two or more audio segments are preferably taken into account in the optimizing procedure. A corresponding audio decoder comprises separate decoders corresponding to the separate encoders of the audio encoder that encoded the audio signal. Decoded signal parts from these decoders are then added to produce the final audio signal. The presented audio encoding is efficient and provides a high sound quality because the encoding scheme is flexible and adapts to specific demands for each audio excerpt.

    摘要： An audio encoder comprising optimizing means ET OPT adapted to generate an optimized encoding template OET based on properties PV of an input audio signal IN, such as in form of a property vector. The optimized encoding template OET is being optimized with respect to a predetermined encoding efficiency criterion. Encoding means ENC then generates an encoded audio signal OUT in accordance with the optimized encoding template OET. The audio encoder may comprise analyzing means AN adapted to generate the set of input signal properties PV based of the input signal IN. In a preferred embodiment the optimizing means ET OPT is adapted to estimate a resulting distortion associated with an encoding template. The optimizing means ET OPT may further be able to estimate bit rate associated with an encoding template. In one embodiment the optimizing means ET OPT is adapted to optimize a bit rate distribution to a number of sub-encoders based on the input signal properties (PV). In another embodiment, the optimizing means ET OPT is adapted to up-front decide on an adaptive segmentation based on the input signal properties (PV). The encoders according to the invention are advantageous in that complex processes of a plurality of encodings prior to deciding upon an optimized encoding template OET can be avoided since the optimal encoding template OET is found based on input signal properties (PV).
