Abstract:
An encoder for encoding an audio signal, audio transmission system and method for determining correction values includes an analyzer for analyzing the audio signal and for determining analysis prediction coefficients from the audio signal. Including a converter for deriving converted prediction coefficients from the analysis prediction coefficients, a memory for storing a multitude of correction values and a calculator. The calculator includes a processor for processing the converted prediction coefficients to obtain spectral weighting factors and a combiner for combining the spectral weighting factors and the multitude of correction values to obtain corrected weighting factors. A quantizer of the calculator is configured for quantizing the converted prediction coefficients using the corrected weighting factors obtaining a quantized representation of the converted prediction coefficients. The encoder includes a bitstream former for forming an output signal based on the quantized representation of the converted prediction coefficients and based on the audio signal.
