MPEG-4 ALS Lossess Audio Coding

The MPEG-4 ALS standard belongs to the family MPEG-4 audio coding standards pubished by ISO (www.iso.org). In contrast to lossy codecs such as MP3 and AAC, which merely strive to preserve the subjective audio quality, lossless coding preserves every single bit of the original audio data. The basic technology for MPEG-4 ALS was developed by the NUe Group (Fachgebiet Nachrichtenübertragung) at Technical University of Berlin. The first version of the MPEG-4 ALS standard was published in 2006, and the latest description is now available as part of the 4th (2009) edition of the comprehensive MPEG-4 audio standard (ISO/IEC 14496-3:2009).
