Method and an apparatus for processing an audio signal
An apparatus for processing an audio signal and method thereof are disclosed. The present invention includes receiving, by an audio processing apparatus, an audio signal including a first data of a first block encoded with rectangular coding scheme and a second data of a second block encoded with non-rectangular coding scheme; receiving a compensation signal corresponding to the second block; estimating a prediction of an aliasing part using the first data; and, obtaining a reconstructed signal for the second block based on the second data, the compensation signal and the prediction of aliasing part.
1. A method for processing an audio signal, comprising:
receiving, by an audio processing apparatus, an audio signal including a current frame encoded with a first coding scheme being based on linear-prediction domain and a following frame encoded with a second coding scheme being based on frequency domain;
receiving sub-coding identification information indicating at least one block of the current frame is encoded with a rectangular coding scheme or a non-rectangular coding scheme;
when the sub-coding identification information indicates that the current frame includes a plurality of blocks and at least last block of the current frame is encoded with the non-rectangular coding scheme, determining a descending line of a current window according to a following window for the following frame, wherein the descending line is determined to have a first slope when the following window is a non-short window, and is determined to have a second slope when the following window is a short window; and
applying the current window having the determined descending line to the last block,
wherein the first slope is gentler than the second slope,
wherein an ascending line of the current window is determined to have the first slope regardless of the determined descending line of the current window, and
wherein the non-short window is one of a long stop window, a stop-start window or a window of the first coding scheme for the following frame.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a width of the first slope corresponds to 256 samples or N/4 and a width of the second slope corresponds to 128 samples or N/8 (N is frame length).
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein cross point between the current window and the following window is at N/2 distance from start of the following window.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein a width of the first slope is matched to a width of an ascending slope in the non-short window, and a width of the second slope is matched to a width of an ascending slope in the short window.
5. An apparatus for processing an audio signal, comprising:
a de-multiplexer receiving an audio signal including a current frame encoded with a first coding scheme being based on linear-prediction domain and a following frame encoded with a second coding scheme being based on frequency domain, and receiving sub-coding identification information indicating at least one block of the current frame is encoded with a rectangular coding scheme or a non-rectangular coding scheme;
a first coding unit, when the sub-coding identification information indicates that the current frame includes a plurality of blocks and at least last block of the current frame is encoded with the non-rectangular coding scheme, determining a descending line of a current window according to a following window for the following frame, wherein the descending line is determined to have a first slope when the following window is a non-short window, and is determined to have a second slope when the following window is a short window; and
applying the current window having the determined descending line to the last block,
wherein the first slope is gentler than the second slope,
wherein an ascending line of the current window is determined to have the first slope regardless of the determined descending line of the current window, and
wherein the non-short window is one of a long stop window, a stop-start window or a window of the first coding scheme for the following frame.

7. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein cross point between the current window and the following window is at N/2 distance from start of the following window.
8. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein a width of the first slope is matched to a width of an ascending slope in the non-short window, and a width of the second slope is matched to a width of an ascending slope in the short window.
