AUDIO CODEC USING NOISE SYNTHESIS DURING INACTIVE PHASES

摘要

A parametric background noise estimate is continuously updated during an active or non-silence phase so that the noise generation may immediately be started with upon the entrance of an inactive phase following the active phase. In accordance with another aspect, a spectral domain is very efficiently used in order to parameterize the background noise thereby yielding a background noise synthesis which is more realistic and thus leads to a more transparent active to inactive phase switching.
