KODIERUNG VON AUDIOSIGNALEN

摘要

An apparatus and method of signal coding includes an analysis-by-synthesis algorithm for sinusoidal modeling. An input signal to be modeled is divided in time to produce a plurality of frames. Functions from a dictionary are selected to form an approximation of the section of the input signal contained in each frame, with the selection carried out based on a psychoacoustic norm. The function dictionary is made up of complex exponentials and these are selected iteratively to make up the section of the input signal contained in each frame. The psychoacoustic norm adapts after each iteration according to the changing masking threshold of the residual signal to be modeled in the next step.
