Generation of Comfort Noise

Abstract:

A User Equipment (UE) is operative to generate CN (Comfort Noise) control parameters, e.g., as part of audio-decoding processing by the UE. A buffer of a predetermined size implemented in the UE is configured to store CN parameters for SID (Silence Insertion Descriptor) frames and active hangover frames. Processing circuitry of the UE is configured to determine a CN parameter subset relevant for SID frames based on the age of the stored CN parameters and on residual energies, and use the determined CN parameter subset to determine CN control parameters for a first SID frame following an active signal frame.
