Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for producing a fingerprint signal from an audio signal includes a means for calculating energy values for frequency bands of segments of the audio signal which are successive in time, so as to obtain, from the audio signal, a sequence of vectors of energy values, a means for scaling the energy values to obtain a sequence of scaled vectors, and a means for temporal filtering of the sequence of scaled vectors to obtain a filtered sequence which represents the fingerprint, or from which the fingerprint may be derived. Thus, a fingerprint is produced which is robust against disturbances due to problems associated with coding or with transmission channels, and which is especially suited for mobile radio applications.
