`Dear Sir
`
`Please find enclosed herewith the coimuon proposal of CCETT IRT
`scheme suitable
`for high

`and PHILIPS for
`quality audio signals
`

`in mind the requirements

`The scheme has been developed

`on the design of

`emphasis
`decoder with the following features
`low complexity
`short decoding delay
`compatibility with
`
`universal simple
`
`broad range of bitrates
`
`Additionally the compressed sound format allows
`small granularity
`random access having
`for ancillary information
`supports data capacity
`to bit errors
`and has high robustness
`
`This scheme will be supported by hardware
`having in mind
`intend to demonstrate
`integration
`
`implementation which we
`further step towards VSLI

`does not

`according
`grouping items from three levels Each of
`these levels contains
`algorithms for
`special purpose
`
`this is the basic level which will be used in all

`
`this contains additional algorithms that can be used to
`II

`reduce the bitrate of
`the Level
`further
`even

`
`error detection and/or correction codes
`III
`LEVEL
`applications
`
`for different
`
`levels II and III are optional This means that
`Algorithms of
`application may include besides the level
`algorithm only
`III algorithm or both Also
`level II or level
`combination
`different algorithms from the same level may be used

`
`FORMAT

`and output data are digital samples of an audio signal
`The input
`represented in 16 bit twos complement notation The sample
`frequency may be 32 44.1 or 48 kHz
`
`FILTER TRANSFORMS
`
`filter transforms are used to split the broadband
`signal
`Special
`at sample frequency
`Fs into 32 equal bandwidth
`subbands at sample
`frequency Fs/32 and to join the 32 subband signals to regenerate
`the broadband signal The subband samples will be represented in
`24 bit twos complement notation
