Abstract:
The invention provides a decoder being configured for processing an encoded audio bitstream, wherein the decoder includes: a bitstream decoder configured to derive a decoded audio signal from the bitstream, wherein the decoded audio signal includes at least one decoded frame; a noise estimation device configured to produce a noise estimation signal containing an estimation of the level and/or the spectral shape of a noise in the decoded audio signal; a comfort noise generating device configured to derive a comfort noise signal from the noise estimation signal; and a combiner configured to combine the decoded frame of the decoded audio signal and the comfort noise signal in order to obtain an audio output signal.

Claim (Index 6):
A decoder according to  claim 1 , wherein the decoder comprises a switch device configured to switch the decoder alternatively to a first mode of operation or to a second mode of operation, wherein in the first mode of operation the comfort noise signal is fed to the combiner, whereas the comfort noise signal is not fed to the combiner in the second mode of operation.
