Abstract
A device for processing audio signals includes an interchannel phase difference (IPD) mode selector and an IPD estimator. The IPD mode selector is configured to select an IPD mode from among at least a first IPD mode and a second IPD mode based on at least an interchannel temporal mismatch value indicative of a temporal misalignment between a first audio signal and a second audio signal. The IPD estimator is configured to determine IPD values based on the first audio signal and the second audio signal, the IPD values represented using a first number of bits responsive to selection of the first IPD mode or represented using a second number of bits responsive to selection of the second IPD mode.
