Abstract:
1. A method for processing an audio signal, comprising: receiving, by an audio processing apparatus, an audio signal including a previous frame encoded with a first coding scheme being based on frequency domain and a current frame encoded with a second coding scheme being based on linear-prediction domain; receiving sub-coding identification information indicating at least one block of the current frame is encoded with a rectangular coding scheme or a non-rectangular coding scheme; when the sub-coding identification information indicates that the current frame includes a plurality of blocks and at least first block of the current frame is encoded with the non-rectangular coding scheme, determining an ascending line of a current window according to a previous window for the previous frame, wherein the ascending line is determined to have a first slope when the previous window is a non-short window, and is determined to have a second slope when the previous window is a short window; and applying the current window having the determined ascending line to the first block, wherein the first slope is gentler than the second slope, wherein a descending line of the current window is determined to have the first slope regardless of the determined ascending line of the current window, and wherein the non-short window is one of a long_start window, a stop-start window or a window of the second coding scheme for the previous frame.
