Abstract: An apparatus for processing an audio signal and method thereof are disclosed. The present invention includes receiving, by an audio processing apparatus, an audio signal including a first data of a first block encoded with rectangular coding scheme and a second data of a second block encoded with non-rectangular coding scheme; receiving a compensation signal corresponding to the second block; estimating a prediction of an aliasing part using the first data; and, obtaining a reconstructed signal for the second block based on the second data, the compensation signal and the prediction of aliasing part.

Abstract: An apparatus for processing an encoded signal and method thereof are disclosed, by which an audio signal can be compressed and reconstructed in higher efficiency. An audio signal processing method includes the steps of identifying whether a type of an audio signal is a music using first type information, if the type of the audio signal is not the music signal, identifying whether the type of the audio signal is a speech signal or a mixed signal using second type information, and if the type of the audio signal is determined as either the speech signal or the mixed signal, reconstructing the audio signal according to a coding scheme applied per frame using coding identification information. If the type of the audio signal is the music signal, the first type information is received only. If the type of the audio signal is the speech signal or the mixed signal, both of the first type information and the second type information are received.

Abstract: An audio signal processing method is disclosed. The audio signal processing method includes receiving a residual and long term prediction information, performing inverse frequency mapping with respect to the residual to generate a synthesized residual, and performing long term synthesis based on the synthesized residual and the long term prediction information to generate a synthesized audio signal of a current frame, wherein the long term prediction information comprises a final prediction gain and a final pitch lag, the final pitch lag has a range starting with 0, and the long term synthesis is performed based on a synthesized audio signal of a frame comprising a preceding frame.

Abstract: A method for processing an audio signal is disclosed. The method for processing an audio signal includes frequency-transforming an audio signal to generate a frequency-spectrum, deciding a weighting per band corresponding to energy per band using the frequency spectrum, receiving a masking threshold based on a psychoacoustic model, applying the weighting to the masking threshold to generate a modified masking threshold, and quantizing the audio signal using the modified masking threshold.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a color conversion method of a light emitting pointer for a vehicle dashboard, a color conversion device therefor and a light emitting pointer using the same. The color conversion method comprises the steps of: disposing three light sources having three colors arranged at equal intervals on the circumferences thereof centering around the axis of the pointer; and controlling the switching of the respective light sources by means of a light source operation controller, such that the light of the three colors from the respective light sources is emitted for predetermined time on the different time, whereby the combination of the three colors using the afterimage of the eyes is induced to thus obtain various colors.
