Abstract

A frame is received that has the wideband audio signal. The low band audio signal is encoded to generate an encoded low band signal. The high band signal is analyzed to determine whether the high band signal is perceptually relevant to the low band signal. If the high band signal is not perceptually relevant to the low band signal, the low band signal is encoded and provided in a frame to the decoder without including parameters corresponding to characteristics of the high band signal. If the high band signal is perceptually relevant, the high band signal is encoded to generate an encoded high band signal. The resultant frame that is sent to the decoder will include a combination of the encoded low band signal and the encoded high band signal.
