Patents by Inventor Andrei Trofimov

Andrei Trofimov has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7181404
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for audio compression receives an audio signal. Transform coding is applied to the audio signal to generate a sequence of transform frequency coefficients. The sequence of transform frequency coefficients is partitioned into a plurality of non-uniform width frequency ranges and then zero value frequency coefficients are inserted at the boundaries of the non-uniform width frequency ranges. As a result, certain of the transform frequency coefficients that represent high frequencies are dropped.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 11, 2005
    Date of Patent: February 20, 2007
    Assignee: XVD Corporation

  • Patent number: 5832443
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for compression and decompression of an audio signal. In encoding an input audio signal, at least a portion of the audio signal is transformed into a set of coefficients. A set of binary vectors associated with the set of coefficients are generated for digitizing the transformed audio signal using a fixed rate adaptive quantization. Information based on the set of binary vectors is combinatorially encoded and output as a bit stream of encoded audio data. The encoded audio data may be stored, transmitted, and/or decoded.
