WHITE PAPER: Audio Compression


White Paper Provides Audio Compression Algorithm Overview: Digital compression algorithms are designed to produce a digital representation of an audio signal that, when decoded and reproduced, sounds the same as the original signal and uses a minimum of digital information (bit-rate) for the compressed (or encoded) representation. This white paper “Audio Compression Algorithms,” by Ambika Ammal, discusses different compression algorithms as well as basic principles of design.
