Abstract

See full text

Coding of high quality stereophonic audio signals is accomplished in a perceptual filterbank coder which exploits the interchannel redundancies and psychoacoustic. Using perceptual principles, switching between a normal and short window of input samples improve output signal quality for certain input signals, particularly those having a rapid attack. Switching is also accomplished between coding of left and right channels and so-called sum and difference channels in response to particular signal conditions. A number of new perceptually based techniques, including improved threshold determinations, result in high quality.
