MPEG-4 Enhanced Low Delay AAC - A New Standard for High Quality Communication

The MPEG Audio group has recently concluded the standardization process for the MPEG-4 Enhanced Low Delay AAC (AAC-ELD) codec. This codec is a new member of the MPEG Advanced Audio Coding family. It represents the efficient combination of the AAC Low Delay codec and the Spectral Band Replication (SBR) technique known from HE-AAC. This paper provides a complete overview of the underlying technology, presents points of operation as well as applications and discusses MPEG verification test results.
