    摘要: A system for encoding audio signals, transmitting or recording the encoded audio signals, and then decoding the transmitted audio signal includes a circuit for determining the block length of the input audio signals based upon detected values of predetermined portions of the input signal and then performing an orthogonal conversion of the determined block length signal, in which the signal is orthogonally transformed from a time-domain signal to a frequency-domain signal. Following quantization, the converted and encoded signal is transmitted and upon performing reverse quantization, a reverse orthogonal converting circuit converts the signal back to the time-domain in keeping with the signal providing information concerning the various block lengths that were determined during encoding. The converted time-domain signals are then connected into a smooth waveform to form output audio signals.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for processing an input digital signal in which an input digital audio signal at an input terminal 11 is supplied via a one-block delay unit 17 to a difference unit 20, an output of which is processed by noise-shaping circuit 21 and restored by a near-instantaneous compressor 26, a near-instantaneous expander 27 and an accumulator 28 so as to be fed back to the difference unit 20 to find a difference between a signal of a directly preceding sample and a signal of the current sample. The noise shaping circuit 21 modifies the spectrum of the quantization noise by taking aural characteristics, such as equal-loudness characteristics or masking characteristics, into account for diminishing the level of the quantization noise as perceived by the ear. The noise level as perceived may be reduced in a manner desirable for the sound quality without changing the existing format.

    摘要: A signal transforming method and apparatus which improves the quality of a signal, and a recording medium therefore. This method and apparatus alters the frequency components of an acoustic time signal. By altering the frequency components the characteristics of the acoustic time signal is transformed such that its quality is improved. The alteration is such that the difference in magnitude of attributes of frequency components within a substantially critical band are adjusted based on characteristics of auditory sensing.
