ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a frequency-domain error concealment technique for information that is represented, on a frame-by-frame basis, by coding coefficients. The basic idea is to conceal an erroneous coding coefficient by exploiting coding coefficient correlation in both time and frequency. The technique is applicable to any information, such as audio, video and image data, that is compressed into coding coefficients and transmitted under adverse channel conditions. The error concealment technique proposed by the invention has the clear advantage of exploiting the redundancy of the original information signal in time as well as frequency. For example, this offers the possibility to exploit redundancy between frames (inter-frame) as well as within frames (intra-frame). The use of coding coefficients from the same frame as the erroneous coding coefficient is sometimes referred to as intra-frame coefficient correlation and it is a special case of the more general frequency correlation.
