Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017157841A1] The present invention relates to a method for conditioning an audio signal 2 subjected to lossy compression, comprising the following steps: - provision of an audio signal 2 subjected to lossy compression, - transfer of the audio signal 2 to a frequency spectrum in which energies of the audio signal 2 are correlated with frequencies of the audio signal 2, - ascertainment of the frequencies fi of local amplitude maxima in the frequency spectrum, - stipulation of a first selection criterion and preselection of the frequencies fi of two directly successive local amplitude maxima, which frequencies satisfy the first selection criterion, - stipulation of a second selection criterion and selection of preselected frequencies fi, satisfying the first selection criterion, of two directly successive local amplitude maxima, which frequencies additionally satisfy the second selection criterion, - generation of an audio filler signal (AFS) and - conditioning of the audio signal 2 by introducing the audio filler signal (AFS) into a frequency range between the frequencies fi that satisfy the second selection criterion, so that the frequency range is filled with the audio filler signal (AFS) at least in sections, in particular completely.
