Abstract
An apparatus for generating a bandwidth enhanced audio signal from an input audio signal having an input audio signal frequency range includes: a raw signal generator configured for generating a raw signal having an enhancement frequency range, wherein the enhancement frequency range is not included in the input audio signal frequency range; a neural network processor configured for generating a parametric representation for the enhancement frequency range using the input audio frequency range of the input audio signal and a trained neural network; and a raw signal processor for processing the raw signal using the parametric representation for the enhancement frequency range to obtain a processed raw signal having frequency components in the enhancement frequency range, wherein the processed raw signal or the processed raw signal and the input audio signal frequency range of the input audio signal represent the bandwidth enhanced audio signal.
