AAC Advanced Audio Coding
Summary More possible Channels than MP3 48:5 full audio channels 16:1 low frequency channels Higher possible sampling rates 96KHz instead of 48KHz “MPEG formal listening tests have demonstrate that for 2 channels it is able to provide slightly better audio quality at 96 kb/s than layer-3 at 128 kb/s or layer-2 at 192 kb/s.”
MPEG-2 NBC Also known as: MPEG-2 Non-Backward Compatible Doesn't have to be compatible Can use MP3's coding techniques more efficiently Also adds some new coding techniques
Some Changes From MP3 • Pure MDCT, not hybrid filter • Longer long windows • Shorter short windows
New Coding Tools • PNS: Perceptual Noise Substitution • LTP: Long Term Prediction
