MPEG-4 Audio

MPEG-4 includes a system for handling a diverse group of audio formats in a uniform matter. Each format is assigned a unique Audio Object Type (AOT) to represent it. The common format Global header shared by all AOTs is called the Audio Specific Config.

Subparts

  • Subpart 0: Overview
  • Subpart 1: Main (Systems Interaction)
  • Subpart 2: Speech coding - HVXC
  • Subpart 3: Speech coding - CELP
  • Subpart 4: General Audio coding (GA) - AAC, TwinVQ, BSAC
  • Subpart 5: Structured Audio (SA)
  • Subpart 6: Text To Speech Interface (TTSI)
  • Subpart 7: Parametric Audio Coding - HILN
  • Subpart 8: Parametric coding for high quality audio - SSC (and Parametric Stereo)
  • Subpart 9: MPEG-1/2 Audio in MPEG-4
  • Subpart 10: Lossless coding of oversampled audio - DST
  • Subpart 11: Audio lossless coding - ALS
  • Subpart 12: Scalable lossless coding - SLS

Audio Specific Config

The Audio Specific Config is the global header for MPEG-4 Audio:

5 bits: object type
if (object type == 31)
    6 bits + 32: object type
4 bits: frequency index
if (frequency index == 15)
    24 bits: frequency
4 bits: channel configuration
var bits: AOT Specific Config
