Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are
members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical
committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical
activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the
work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee,
ISO/IEC JTC 1.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for
the different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject
of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the
Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see www .iso

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology,
Subcommittee SC 29, Coding of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedia information.

AMENDMENT 7: SBR enhancements
1.5.1.2.6
Replace the first sentence with:
The SBR Object contains the SBR-Tool and the MPEG-4 SBR Enhancements as signalled in the SBR
extension element (bs_extension_id== EXTENSION_ID_ESBR) of Annex 8.A and can be combined
with the audio object types indicated in Table 1.2. If a decoder detects and supports this SBR
extension element, the decoder shall process the MPEG-4 SBR Enhancements.
1.5.2.2
In Table 1.4, update the row for Object Type SBR as follows:
SBR fs = 24/48 kHz (in/out) 3 2.5 1)
(SBR tool)
fs = 24/48 kHz (in/out) 4.5 3 1)
(eSBR tool)
fs = 24/48 kHz (in/out) 2 1.5 1)
(Low Power SBR tool)
fs = 48/48 kHz (in/out) 4.5 2.5 1)
(Down Sampled SBR tool)
fs = 48/48 kHz (in/out) 3 1.5 1)
(Low Power Down
Sampled SBR tool)

For level 3, level 4 and level 6 decoders, it is mandatory to operate the SBR tool in downsampled mode if the sampling
rate of the AAC core is higher than 24 kHz. Hence, if the SBR tool operates on a 48 kHz AAC signal, the internal sampling rate
of the SBR tool will be 96 kHz, however, the output signal will be downsampled by the SBR tool to 48 kHz.
b
For one or two channels the maximum AAC sampling rate, with SBR present, is 48 kHz. For more than two channels the
maximum AAC sampling rate, with SBR present, is 24 kHz.

Level 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7 HE AAC v2 Profile decoders implement the baseline version of the parametric stereo tool. A level 5
decoder shall not be limited to the baseline version of the parametric stereo tool.
b
For level 3, level 4 and level 6 decoders, it is mandatory to operate the SBR tool in downsampled mode if the sampling
rate of the AAC core is higher than 24 kHz. Hence, if the SBR tool operates on a 48 kHz AAC signal, the internal sampling rate
of the SBR tool will be 96 kHz, however, the output signal will be downsampled by the SBR tool to 48 kHz.
c
If Parametric Stereo data is present the maximum AAC sampling rate is 24 kHz, if Parametric Stereo data is not present
the maximum AAC sampling rate is 48 kHz.
d
For one or two channels the maximum AAC sampling rate, with SBR present, is 48 kHz. For more than two channels the
maximum AAC sampling rate, with SBR present, is 24 kHz.
e
The PCU/RCU number are given for a decoder operating the LP SBR tool whenever applicable.

At the end of paragraph 2 add a new paragraph:
In addition, the harmonic transposers and SBR pre-processing as defined in ISO/IEC 23003-3 may
be used in combination with the SBR tool as defined in 4.6.18. The bitstream element esbr_data() as
defined in 8.A.2 conveys the information needed by these tools
