Psychoacoustics
Characterizing human auditory perception.
Time-frequency analysis capabilities of the inner ear.
Perceptually irrelevant audio signal information.
Contributions from psychoacoustics:
Perceptual entropy
Auditory filter bank
Perceptual entropy deals with estimate of the
fundamental limit of transparent audio signal
compression.
Auditory filter bank based on the time-frequency
analysis capabilities of the inner ear.

AC-Expt.1
Effect of Sampling Frequency and Bit Resolution
Objective is to analyze the effect of sampling frequency
and bit resolution on the perceptual quality of audio.
Take a CD quality music signal of 1 sec, sampled at
44.1 kHz with 16 bits/sample and perform the following.
Change its sampling frequency to 16, 8 and 4 kHz.
Keep bit resolution constant at 16 bits/sample.
Consider about 50 ms segment in a high energy
region.
Plot the time domain and DFT spectra for all the
four cases.
Comment on the effect of different sampling
frequency.
Comment also on the perceptual quality of the
audio.

AC-Expt.1
Effect of Sampling Frequency and Bit Resolution
Change its bit resolution to 8, 4 and 1 bits/sample.
Keep sampling frequency constant at 44.1 kHz.
Consider the same 50 ms segment in a high energy
region.
Plot the time domain and DFT spectra for all the
four cases.
Comment on the effect of different bit resolutions.
Comment also on the perceptual quality of the
audio.
