Abstract: A method and apparatus for coding audio signals having M sound channels in
order to reduce the amount of audio data for transmission or storage. A comparison
device is used to compare the coding efficiency in intra-channel signal redundancy
reduction and the coding efficiency in inter-channel signal redundancy reduction in
order to select a more efficient coding process. In particular, the modified discrete
cosine transform (MDCT) process is used to compute the intra-channel coding
efficiency and the cascade discrete cosine transform of the MDCT coefficients is used
to compute the inter-channel coding efficiency. The efficiencies can be evaluated by
computing a gain or the cross-channel correlation coefficients in the audio signals of
the M sound channels.
