An experimental audio codec based on warped linear prediction of complex valued signals
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bark-scale warped linear prediction [WLP] is a very potential core for a monophonic perceptual audio codec [2]. In the current paper the WLP scheme is extended for processing complex valued signals (CWLP). Three di erent methods of converting a stereo signal to one complex valued signal are introduced. The philosophy behind the coding scheme is to integrate some aspects of modern wideband audio coding (e.g. perceptuality and stereo signal processing) into one computational element in order to nd a more holistic and economic way of processing.

Warped Linear Prediction for Improved Perceptual Quality in the Scelp Low Delay Audio Codec (w-scelp)
The SCELP (Spherical Code Excited Linear Prediction) audio codec, which has recently been proposed for low delay audio coding [5], is based on linear prediction (LP). It applies closed-loop vector quantization employing a spherical code which is based on the Apple Peeling code construction rule. Frequency warped signal processing is known to be beneficial especially in the context of wideband a...
متن کاملA warped linear-prediction-based subband audio coding algorithm
In this paper, a novel audio coding algorithm is proposed where the warped linear prediction (WLP) technique is employed to construct a perceptual preand post-filter for subband audio coding. A modified signal-to-mask ratio (SMR) calculation is given for subband coding of the WLP residuals of audio signals. The concept of perceptual entropy (PE) is extended to subband coding, resulting in the s...
متن کاملDetection of Clicks in Audio Signals Using Warped Linear Prediction
In this work warped linear prediction (WLP) is applied to a model-based method to detect impulsive disturbances in audio signals. According to simulations performed on artificially corrupted audio signals the adoption of negative values for the warping factor favors the click detection scheme. As a consequence, for equal levels of missing (false) detection the WLP-based scheme yields consistent...
متن کاملBlind bandwidth extension of audio signals based on non-linear prediction and hidden Markov model
The bandwidth limitation of wideband (WB) audio systems degrades the subjective quality and naturalness of audio signals. In this paper, a new method for blind bandwidth extension of WB audio signals is proposed based on non-linear prediction and hiddenMarkov model (HMM). The high-frequency (HF) components in the band of 7–14 kHz are artificially restored only from the low-frequency information...
متن کاملMdct for Encoding Residual Signals in Frequency Domain Linear Prediction
Frequency domain linear prediction (FDLP) uses autoregressive models to represent Hilbert envelopes of relatively long segments of speech/audio signals. Although the basic FDLP audio codec achieves good quality of the reconstructed signal at high bit-rates, there is a need for scaling to lower bit-rates without degrading the reconstruction quality. Here, we present a method for improving the co...
