  • Abstract
    This article presents the architecture, performance, and application scenarios of the AMR-WB+ (extended AMR-WB) audio codec, which provides high quality at exceptionally low rates, and consistent quality over all audio types. This codec was recently selected by 3GPP and DVB to support low-bit-rate audio and audiovisual applications on mobile networks
