    摘要: The present invention relates to audio coding systems which make use of a harmonic transposition method for high frequency reconstruction (HFR). A system and a method for generating a high frequency component of a signal from a low frequency component of the signal is described. The system comprises an analysis filter bank providing a plurality of analysis subband signals of the low frequency component of the signal. It also comprises a non-linear processing unit to generate a synthesis subband signal with a synthesis frequency by modifying the phase of a first and a second of the plurality of analysis subband signals and by combining the phase-modified analysis subband signals. Finally, it comprises a synthesis filter bank for generating the high frequency component of the signal from the synthesis subband signal.

    摘要: A method (1900) for audio signal filtering. The method includes generating (s1902) a pair of filters for a certain location specified by an elevation angle ϑ and an azimuth angle φ, the pair of filters consisting of a right filter (hr(ϑ,φ)) and a left filter (hl(ϑ, φ)); filtering (s1904) an audio signal using the right filter; and filtering (s1906) the audio signal using the left filter. Generating the pair of filters comprises: i) obtaining at least a first set of elevation basis function values at the elevation angle: ii) obtaining at least a first set of azimuth basis function values at the azimuth angle; iii) generating the right filter using: a) at least the first set of elevation basis function values, b) at least the first set of azimuth basis function values, and c) right filter model parameters; and iv) generating the left filter using: a) at least the first set of elevation basis function values, b) at least the first set of azimuth basis function values, and c) left filter model parameters.

    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.
