Abstract:
Example audio signal processing apparatuses and methods for processing an input audio signal into an output audio signal are disclosed. An example audio signal processing apparatus comprises a decomposer configured to decompose the input audio signal into a direct audio signal and a diffuse audio signal, a modifier configured to modify the direct audio signal in order to obtain a modified direct audio signal, wherein the modifier comprises a bandwidth extender configured to extend an upper cutoff frequency of a frequency range of the direct audio signal, and a combiner configured to combine the modified direct audio signal with the diffuse audio signal to obtain the output audio signal.

Claim (Index 15):
An audio signal processing apparatus for processing an input audio signal into an output audio signal, wherein the audio signal processing apparatus comprises:\n at least one processor; and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium coupled to the at least one processor and storing programming instructions for execution by the at least one processor, wherein the programming instructions instruct the at least one processor to:\n decompose the input audio signal into a direct audio signal and a diffuse audio signal; \n modify the direct audio signal to obtain a modified direct audio signal by extending an upper cutoff frequency of a frequency range of the direct audio signal; and \n combine the modified direct audio signal with the diffuse audio signal to obtain the output audio signal.
