What is AAC?

The idea of AAC's algorythm is to exploit two primary coding strategies to dramatically reduce the amount of data needed to convey high-quality digital audio. AAC has the sampling frequencies between 8 Hz and 96 kHz and any number of channels between 1 and 48. AAC uses the modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) together with the increased window lengths of 2,048 points. AAC is much more capable of encoding audio with streams of complex pulses and square waves than MP3 or Musicam. AAC can be switched dynamically between MDCT block lengths of 2,048 points to 256 points.

AAC takes a modular approach to encoding. Depending on the complexity of the bitstream to be encoded, the desired performance and the acceptable output, implementers may create profiles to define which of a specific set of tools they want use for a particular application. So the AAC LD coding scheme bridges the gap between speech coding schemes and high quality audio coding schemes.
