ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for determining a signal spectrum of a wideband digital audio signal in an adaptive bitallocation system, including a signal splitting unit for splitting the wideband digital audio signal into M narrow band sub signals (SB.sub.m), each one of the M sub signals being representative of a component of the wideband digital audio signal which is present in a corresponding one of M adjacent substantially non-overlapping narrow bands in the frequency band of the wideband digital audio signal; and a, calculating unit for each time determining from the M sub signal, information which is representative of the signal spectrum of the wideband digital audio signal, wherein M is an integer larger than one. The calculating unit includes a transformation unit for carrying out on each of the sub signals a time-to-frequency transform based signal processing so as to obtain the information representative of the signal spectrum of the wideband digital audio signal. The time-to-frequency transform based processing can be a Fourier transform.
