Abstract
An error-concealing audio decoding method comprises: receiving a packet comprising a set of MDCT coefficients encoding a frame of time-domain samples of an audio signal; identifying the received packet as erroneous; generating estimated MDCT coefficients to replace the set of MDCT coefficients of the erroneous packet, based on corresponding MDCT coefficients associated with a received packet directly preceding the erroneous packet; assigning signs of a first subset of MDCT coefficients of the estimated MDCT coefficients, wherein the first subset comprises such MDCT coefficients that are associated with tonal-like spectral bins, to coincide with signs of corresponding MDCT coefficients of said preceding packet; randomly assigning signs of a second subset of MDCT coefficients of the estimated MDCT coefficients, wherein the second subset comprises MDCT coefficients associated with noise-like spectral bins; replacing the erroneous packet by a concealment packet containing the estimated MDCT coefficients and the signs assigned.
