<p>The invention relates in general to low bit-rate encoding and decoding of information such as audio information. More particularly, the invention relates to method and apparatus for reducing the amount of information required to convey a high-resolution spectral envelope of a signal. A sub-band encoder prepares an estimate of an input signal spectral envelope by splitting the input signal into frequency sub-band signals, generates a scaled representation of the sub-band signals comprising scaling factors and scaled values, generates a differential coded representation of the scaling factors, and assembles the differential coded representation and scaled values into an encoded signal.</p> |
