Abstract :
MPEG-4 is a member of the well-known family of ISO/MPEG coding standards, and provides an integrated set of audio coders with attractive novel capabilities, including bitrate and bandwidth scalability. The paper gives an introduction into the underlying design concepts of MPEG-4 and provide an overview of MPEG-4 audio coding technology and its features. In particular, it discusses the technical provisions which make MPEG-4 audio very well suited for applications in the domain of mobile communications
