Problems solved by technology

This method significantly reduces the bit rate, but because it cannot reconstruct spectral details, it also brings a certain loss of sound quality, so it is mainly used for higher frequency sub-bands that are not sensitive to human ears

Abstract

The invention discloses a coding method of audio signals and a system thereof and a decoding method and a system thereof, pertaining to the field of processing multimedia signals and source coding. The coding method comprises: orthogonal rotating transforming left-right track audio signals by taking an extremely large related degree rotation angle as a rotating angle; the orthogonal rotating transformed left-right track audio signals are coded. The decoding method comprises: decoding received code stream data and then outputting the decoded audio signals; orthogonal inverse rotating transforming the decoded audio signals by taking an extremely large related degree rotation angle as a rotating angle. The coding system comprise: an extremely large related degree rotation transforming module and a coding module. The decoding system comprises: a decoding module and an extremely large related degree inverse rotation transforming module. The invention records stereo information through a small quantity of parameters of the extremely large related degree rotation angles and can utilize very low code rate to realize the high fidelity compression of the stereo audio signals.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of multimedia signal processing and information source coding, in particular to an audio signal coding method and system and a decoding method and system. Background technique [0002] Stereo signals come from two main sources, natural recordings with two or more microphones, and artificial mixing in an audio studio. The audio of each channel of the former comes from the same audio scene. Except for the time difference and intensity difference caused by the microphone placement, the audio information recorded by them is basically the same, so there is a strong correlation. The latter strives for a realistic audio scene in most cases and therefore also has a strong correlation between channels. [0003] Using this correlation to reduce the bit rate of stereo coding is an important research topic in the field of audio coding. What was proposed earlier was Sum-difference Stereo. In this method, the left channel L and...
