Abstract
A method for encoding multiple descriptions for a media stream includes: determining, for a current block of the media stream, a first number of duplicate blocks, determining, for the current block, a plurality of complementary forward gain factors, and determining a first number of descriptions for the current block by applying the plurality of complementary forward gain factors to the first number of duplicate blocks. A method for decoding multiple descriptions for a media stream includes: determining, for a current block of the media stream, a first number of descriptions from the media stream, in which each description comprises a scaled block corresponding to the current block, determining backward gain factors for the first number of scaled blocks, and determining the current block by applying the backward gain factors to the first number of scaled blocks.
