Abstract

A Unified Speech and Audio Codec (USAC) that may process a window sequence based on mode switching is provided. The USAC may perform encoding or decoding by overlapping between frames based on a folding point when mode switching occurs. The USAC may process different window sequences for each situation to perform encoding or decoding, and thereby may improve a coding efficiency.

Claims (20)

1. A signal processing method processed by a processor, comprising:

identifying a first window for a previous frame of an input signal;

identifying a second window for a current frame of the input signal;

modifying a slope of a left portion of the second window based on the first window; and

processing the current frame using a modified second window having a modified left portion by performing overlap-add operation between the previous frame applied to the first window and the current frame applied to the modified second window,

wherein the slope of the left portion of the second window corresponds to a region for performing overlap-add operation with the first window.

2. The signal processing method of claim 1 , wherein the overlap-add operation is performed at a folding point with respect to the first window and the second window.

3. The signal processing method of claim 1 , wherein the current frame is applied to a Linear Prediction Domain (LPD) mode and the previous frame is applied to a Frequency Domain (FD) mode.

4. The signal processing method of claim 1 , wherein the current frame is applied to a Linear Prediction Domain (LPD) mode and the previous frame is applied to the LPD mode.

5. The signal processing method of claim 1 , wherein the current frame is applied to Frequency Domain (FD) and the previous frame is applied to a Linear Prediction Domain (LPD) mode.

6. A signal processing method processed by a processor, comprising:

identifying a first window for a current frame of an input signal;

identifying a second window for a next frame of the input signal;

modifying a slope of a right portion of the first window based on the second window; and

processing the current frame using a modified first window having a modified right portion overlap-add operation between the current frame applied to the modified first window and the next frame applied to the second window,

wherein the slope of the right portion of the first window corresponds to a region for performing overlap-add operation with the second window.

7. The signal processing method of claim 6 , wherein the overlap-add operation is performed at a folding point with respect to the first window and the first window.

8. The signal processing method of claim 6 , wherein the current frame is applied to a Linear Prediction Domain (LPD) mode and the next frame is applied to a Frequency Domain (FD) mode.

9. The signal processing method of claim 6 , wherein the current frame is applied to a Linear Prediction Domain (LPD) mode and the next frame is applied to the LPD mode.

10. The signal processing method of claim 6 , wherein the current frame is applied to Frequency Domain (FD) and the next frame is applied to a Linear Prediction Domain (LPD) mode.
