ABSTRACT:
A signal compression system includes a plurality of channels. A plurality of these channels include a bandpass filter (for filtering out all but a portion of an input signal), an intensity detector (for deriving a spectrally weighted estimate of the intensity of a broader spectral portion of the input signal than the bandpass filtered spectral portion), and a divider (for compressing the bandpass filtered spectral portion using a variable gain having a preselected functional relationship to the spectrally weighted intensity estimate). The signal compression system preserves cross-channel information.
