Abstract

A novel concept for perceptual audio coding is presented which is based on the combination of a pre- and post-filter, controlled by a psychoacoustic model, with a transform coding scheme. This paradigm allows modeling of the temporal and spectral shape of the masked threshold with a resolution independent of the used transform. By using frequency warping techniques the maximum possible detail for a given filter order can be made frequency-dependent and thus better adapted to the human auditory system. The filter coefficients are represented efficiently by LSF parameters which can be adaptively interpolated over time. First experiments with a system obtained by extending an existing transform codec showed that this approach can significantly improve the performance for speech signals, while the performance for other signals remained the same.
