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