Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100094631APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SYNTHESIZING AN OUTPUT SIGNAL - An apparatus for synthesizing a rendered output signal having a first audio channel and a second audio channel includes a decorrelator stage for generating a decorrelator signal based on a downmix signal, and a combiner for performing a weighted combination of the downmix signal and a decorrelated signal based on parametric audio object information, downmix information and target rendering information. The combiner solves the problem of optimally combining matrixing with decorrelation for a high quality stereo scene reproduction of a number of individual audio objects using a multichannel downmix.04-15-2010

20090265024Device and method for analyzing an information signal - In order to analyze an information signal, a significant short-time spectrum is extracted from the information signal, the means for extracting being configured to extract such short-time spectra which come closer to a specific characteristic than other short-time spectra of the information signal. The short-time spectra extracted are then decomposed into component signals using ICA analysis, a component signal spectrum representing a profile spectrum of a tone source which generates a tone corresponding to the characteristic sought for. From a sequence of short-time spectra of the information signal and from the profile spectra determined, an amplitude envelope is eventually calculated for each profile spectrum, the amplitude envelope indicating how a profile spectrum of a tone source all in all changes over time. The profile spectra and all the amplitude envelopes associated therewith provide a description of the information signal which may be evaluated further, for example for transcription purposes in the case of a music signal.10-22-2009
20090304198AUDIO SIGNAL DECORRELATOR, MULTI CHANNEL AUDIO SIGNAL PROCESSOR, AUDIO SIGNAL PROCESSOR, METHOD FOR DERIVING AN OUTPUT AUDIO SIGNAL FROM AN INPUT AUDIO SIGNAL AND COMPUTER PROGRAM - An audio signal decorrelator for deriving an output audio signal from an input audio signal has a frequency analyzer for extracting from the input audio signal a first partial signal descriptive of an audio content in a first audio frequency range and a second partial signal descriptive of an audio content in a second audio frequency range having higher frequencies compared to the second audio frequency range. A partial signal modifier for modifies the first and second partial signals, to obtain first and second processed partial signals, so that a modulation amplitude of a time variant phase shift or time variant delay applied to the first partial signal is higher than that applied to the second partial signal, or for modifying only the first partial signal. A signal combiner combines the first and second processed partial signals, or combines the first processed partial signal and the second partial signal, to obtain an output audio signal.12-10-2009
20110060598ADAPTIVE GROUPING OF PARAMETERS FOR ENHANCED CODING EFFICIENCY - The present invention is based on the finding that parameters including: a first set of parameters of a representation of a first portion of an original signal and a second set of parameters of a representation of a second portion of the original signal can be efficiently encoded when the parameters are arranged in a first sequence of tuples and a second sequence of tuples. The first sequence of tuples includes tuples of parameters having two parameters from a single portion of the original signal and the second sequence of tuples includes tuples of parameters having one parameter from the first portion and one parameter from the second portion of the original signal. A bit estimator estimates the number of necessary bits to encode the first and the second sequence of tuples. Only the sequence of tuples, which results in the lower number of bits, is encoded.03-10-2011
