    Abstract: A method for multi-channel audio or speech signal processing includes receiving a reference channel and a target channel, determining a variation between a first mismatch value and a second mismatch value, and comparing the variation with a first threshold that may have a pre-determined value or may be adjusted based on a frame type or a smoothing factor. The method also includes adjusting a set of target samples of the target channel based on the variation and based on the comparison to generate an adjusted set of target samples. Adjusting the set of target samples includes selecting one among a first interpolation and a second interpolation based on the variation. The method further includes generating at least one encoded channel based on a set of reference samples and the adjusted set of target samples. The method also includes transmitting the at least one encoded channel to a second device.

    Abstract: A method of coding for multi-channel audio signals includes estimating comparison values at an encoder indicative of an amount of temporal mismatch between a reference channel and a corresponding target channel. The method includes smoothing the comparison values to generate short-term and first long-term smoothed comparison values. The method includes calculating a cross-correlation value between the comparison values and the short-term smoothed comparison values. The method also includes adjusting the first long-term smoothed comparison values in response to comparing the cross-correlation value with a threshold. The method further includes estimating a tentative shift value and non-causally shifting the target channel by a non-causal shift value to generate an adjusted target channel. The non-causal shift value is based on the tentative shift value. The method further includes generating, based on reference channel and the adjusted target channel, at least one of a mid-band channel or a side-band channel.

    Abstract: A device includes an encoder configured to determine, during a first period, that a first audio signal is a leading signal and that a second audio signal is a lagging signal. The encoder is also configured to generate a first frame of at least one encoded signal based on a first modified version of the second audio signal that is generated by adjusting the second audio signal based on a first mismatch value. The encoder is configured to determine, during a second period, that the first audio signal is the leading signal and that the second audio signal is the lagging signal. The encoder is configured to generate a second frame of the at least one encoded signal based on a second modified version of the second audio signal that is generated by adjusting the second audio signal based on the first mismatch value and a second mismatch value.

    Abstract: A method includes decoding a low-band portion of an encoded mid signal to generate a decoded low-band mid signal. The method also includes processing the decoded low-band mid signal to generate a low-band residual prediction signal and generating a low-band left channel and a low-band right channel based partially on the decoded low-band mid signal and the low-band residual prediction signal. The method further includes decoding a high-band portion of the encoded mid signal to generate a time-domain decoded high-band mid signal and processing the time-domain decoded high-band mid signal to generate a time-domain high-band residual prediction signal. The method also includes generating a high-band left channel and a high-band right channel based on the time-domain decoded high-band mid signal and the time-domain high-band residual prediction signal.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a receiver and a decoder. The receiver is configured to receive a bitstream that includes an encoded mid channel and a quantized value representing a shift between a reference channel associated with an encoder and a target channel associated with the encoder. The quantized value is based on a value of the shift. The value of the shift is associated with the encoder and has a greater precision than the quantized value. The decoder is configured to decode the encoded mid channel to generate a decoded mid channel and to generate a first channel based on the decoded mid channel. The decoder is further configured to generate a second channel based on the decoded mid channel and the quantized value. The first channel corresponds to the reference channel and the second channel corresponds to the target channel.

    Abstract: A method includes decoding a low-band mid channel bitstream to generate a low-band mid signal and a low-band mid excitation signal. The method further includes decoding a high-band mid channel bandwidth extension bitstream to generate a synthesized high-band mid signal. The method also includes determining an inter-channel bandwidth extension (ICBWE) gain mapping parameter corresponding to the synthesized high-band mid signal. The ICBWE gain mapping parameter is based on a selected frequency-domain gain parameter that is extracted from a stereo downmix/upmix parameter bitstream. The method further includes performing a gain scaling operation on the synthesized high-band mid signal based on the ICBWE gain mapping parameter to generate a reference high-band channel and a target high-band channel. The method includes outputting a first audio channel and a second audio channel. The first audio channel is based on the reference high-band channel, and the second audio channel is based on target high-band channel.
