The Theory Behind Mp3

Rassol Raissi · 2002

Since the MPEG-1 Layer III encoding technology is nowadays widely used it might be interesting to gain knowledge of how this powerful compression/decompression scheme actually functions. How come the MPEG-1 Layer III is capable of reducing the bit rate with a factor of 12 without almost any audible degradation? Would it be fairly easy to implement this encoding algorithm? This paper will answer these questions and give further additional detailed information.
