Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007011157A1] Methods for Spatial Audio Coding (SAC) of a multi-channel audio signal and decoding of an audio bitstream generated by the SAC are provided. More particularly, methods of efficient quantization and dequantization of Channel Level Difference (CLD) used as a spatial parameter when SAC -based encoding of a multi-channel audio signal is performed are provided. A method of CLD quantization includes extracting sub-band-specific CLDs from an N-channel audio signal (N>1), and quantizing the CLDs by reference to a Virtual Source Location Information (VSLI)-based CLD quantization table designed using CLD quantization values derived from VSLI quantization values of the N-channel audio signal.
