US Patent 12125491 Apparatus and method realizing improved concepts for TCX LTP

An apparatus for decoding an encoded audio signal to obtain a reconstructed audio signal is provided. The apparatus includes a receiving interface, a delay buffer and a sample processor for processing the selected audio signal samples to obtain reconstructed audio signal samples of the reconstructed audio signal. The sample selector is configured to select, if a current frame is received by the receiving interface and if the current frame being received by the receiving interface is not corrupted, the plurality of selected audio signal samples from the audio signal samples being stored in the delay buffer depending on a pitch lag information being included by the current frame.
