Speech and audio coding schemes originate from different worlds. Speech coding schemes typically assume a source model i.e. the human vocal tract. General audio coding schemes primarily rely on a sinkmodel i.e. the human auditory system. While speech coding schemes work well for the signal class they were designed for at very low rates, they are known to fail for general audio signals even at higher...
Discontinuous Transmission (DTX) is an efficient way to drastically reduce the transmission rate of a communication codec in the absence of voice input. In this mode, most frames that are determined to consist of background noise only are dropped from transmission and replaced by some Comfort Noise Generation (CNG) in the decoder. In this paper, we propose a novel CNG approach combining information...
Bandwidth extension (BWE) is an important parametric technique applied by modern audio coders in order to achieve efficient data rate compression at low bitrates. The perceptual quality of BWE enhanced signals is, however, often hampered by artifacts caused by inharmonicity. We propose hence a bandwidth extension method that avoids inharmonicity, and, at the same time, avoids the costly transmission...
