  • Abstract
    A high quality audio coding scheme based on a novel hybrid algorithm combining warped linear prediction (WLP) and subband coding is proposed. The proposed codec is capable of providing a high quality audio output at a low bit-rate. Subjective tests have shown that the proposed codec is able to provide a performance comparable to that of the MPEG audio layer II while operating at a lower bit-rate.
