A method for compressing audio input signals to form a master bit stream that can be scaled to form a scaled bit stream having an arbitrarily prescribed data rate. A hierarchical filterbank decomposes the input signal into a multi-resolution time / frequency representation from which the encoder can efficiently extract both tonal and residual components. The components are ranked and then quantized with reference to the same masking function or different psychoacoustic criteria. The selected tonal components are suitably encoded using differential coding extended to multichannel audio. The time-sample and scale factor components that make up the residual components are encoded using joint channel coding (JCC) extended to multichannel audio. A decoder uses an inverse hierarchical filterbank to reconstruct the audio signals from the tonal and residual components in the scaled bit stream.

In an embodiment, bitstream elements of sub-frames are encoded differentially to a global gain value so that a change of the global gain value results in an adjustment of an output level of the decoded representation of the audio content. Concurrently, the differential coding saves bits. Even further, the differential coding enables the lowering of the burden of globally adjusting the gain of an encoded bitstream. In another embodiment, a global gain control across CELP coded frames and transform coded frames is achieved by co-controlling the gain of the codebook excitation of the CELP codec, along with a level of the transform or inverse transform of the transform coded frames. In another embodiment, the gain value determination in CELP coding is performed in the weighted domain of the excitation signal.

When coding a coding block, within a first, a second, and a third reconstructed reference pixel sample sets, the position labels whereof do not intersect, one or a plurality of optimal fixed-width, variable-length pixel sample matching strings are searched for and obtained, according to predetermined evaluation criteria.

Hybrid coding based on traditional prediction coding is performed simultaneously on a same coding unit, and an optimal coding mode is finally chosen.

In a spread spectrum system, methods and despreader architectures for despreading the received spreaded codes with the use of a single correlator and a single correlation code is provided. Before despreading the incoming received spreaded codes, a single correlation code is generated using a symbol from a set of symbols that has been mapped into a set of differential encoded PN codes. Despreading output samples for each received spreaded code are obtained by correlating the received spreaded code with this single correlation code. Correlation is accomplished by multiplying each received sample of the received spreaded codes with the correlation code samples and accumulating the products of this multiplication. After correlation, the index for the maximum or minimum peak of the despreading output samples for each code is identified. This index can then be mapped into a symbol corresponding to the transmitted information. Corresponding despreader architectures comprise of a number of taps attached to a series of shift registers. Received samples of each received spreaded codes are inputted into the shift registers. The despreader architectures accumulates the products of multiplication of the value of the shift register with a predetermined value associated with each tap to produce the despreading output samples of a received spreaded code. It identifies the despreading output index producing the maximum of the absolute value of the despreading output and maps said index into a symbol corresponding to the transmitted information.
