The bitstream can include different syntax related to time, frequency and spatial domains. In some embodiments, the bitstream includes one or more data structures (e.g., frames) that contain ordered sets of slots for which parameters can be applied. The data structures can be fixed or variable. The data structure can include position information that can be used by a decoder to identify the correct slot for which a given parameter set is applied. The slot position information can be encoded with either a fixed number of bits or a variable number of bits based on the data structure type.
f δ ( x ) = { 0 bit , if x = 1 , 1 bit , if x = 2 , 2 bits , if 3 ≤ x ≤ 4 , 3 bits , if 5 ≤ x ≤ 8 , 4 bits , if 9 ≤ x ≤ 16 , 5 bits , if 17 ≤ x ≤ 32 , 6 bits , if 33 ≤ x ≤ 64 , [ Formula 10 ] In particular, the �nBitsParamSlot[ps]� can be found as nBitsParamSlot[0]=fb(numSlots−numParamSets+1). If 0<ps<numParamSets, the �nBitsParamSlot[ps]� can be found as nBitsParamSlot[ps]=fb(numSlots−numParamSets+ps−bsParamSlot[ps−1]). The �nBitsParamSlot[ps]� can be determined using Formula 11, which extends Formula 10 up to 7 bits.
f δ ( x ) = { 0 bit , if x = 1 , 1 bit , if x = 2 , 2 bits , if 3 ≤ x ≤ 4 , 3 bits , if 5 ≤ x ≤ 8 , 4 bits , if 9 ≤ x ≤ 16 5 bits , if 17 ≤ x ≤ 32 , 6 bits , if 33 ≤ x ≤ 64 , 7 bits , if 65 ≤ x ≤ 128 , [ Formula 11 ] An example of the function fb(x) is explained as follows. If �numSlots� is 15 and if �numParamSets� is 3, the function can be evaluated as nBitsParamSlot[0]=fb(15−3+1)=4 bits.
