Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method processing a signal, an encoding apparatus, and a decoding apparatus are provided. The method of processing a signal includes restoring a down-mixed original signal using a re-quantized prediction parameter to generate a restored signal in an encoding apparatus; generating mute information indicating whether the down-mixed original signal has been muted, according to a value of the restored signal; and transmitting the mute information and the down-mixed original signal from the encoding apparatus to a decoding apparatus.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of processing a signal, the method comprising: restoring a down-mixed original signal using a re-quantized prediction parameter to generate a first restored signal in an encoding apparatus; generating mute information indicating whether the down-mixed original signal has been muted, according to a value of the first restored signal; and transmitting the mute information and the down-mixed original signal from the encoding apparatus to a decoding…
