Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus in which samples of at least a part of an audio signal of a first channel and a part of an audio signal of a second channel are used to estimate a time delay between said part of the audio signal of said first channel and said part of the audio signal of said second channel. The method includes windowing the samples; performing a time-to-frequency domain transform; and determining an inter-channel time delay between said part of the audio signal of the first channel and said part of the audio signal of said second channel on the basis of the frequency domain representations. There is also disclosed a method and an apparatus for decoding the encoded samples.
