8  1.    INTRODUCTION
9 The Fraunhofer FDK AAC Codec Library for Android ("FDK AAC Codec") is software that implements
10 the MPEG Advanced Audio Coding ("AAC") encoding and decoding scheme for digital audio.
11 This FDK AAC Codec software is intended to be used on a wide variety of Android devices.
12 
13 AAC's HE-AAC and HE-AAC v2 versions are regarded as today's most efficient general perceptual
14 audio codecs. AAC-ELD is considered the best-performing full-bandwidth communications codec by
15 independent studies and is widely deployed. AAC has been standardized by ISO and IEC as part
16 of the MPEG specifications.
17 
18 Patent licenses for necessary patent claims for the FDK AAC Codec (including those of Fraunhofer)
19 may be obtained through Via Licensing (www.vialicensing.com) or through the respective patent owners
20 individually for the purpose of encoding or decoding bit streams in products that are compliant with
21 the ISO/IEC MPEG audio standards. Please note that most manufacturers of Android devices already license
22 these patent claims through Via Licensing or directly from the patent owners, and therefore FDK AAC Codec
23 software may already be covered under those patent licenses when it is used for those licensed purposes only.
24 
25 Commercially-licensed AAC software libraries, including floating-point versions with enhanced sound quality,
26 are also available from Fraunhofer. Users are encouraged to check the Fraunhofer website for additional
27 applications information and documentation.

86 \brief Sbr scaling factors,
87 To deal with the dynamic range in the different processing stages, a
88 fixed point specific code has to rely on scaling factors. A floating
89 point code carries a scaling factor -- the exponent -- for each value,
90 so scaling is not necessary there.
91 
92 The output of the core decoder (low band) is scaled up to cover as much
93 as possible bits for each value. As high band and low band are processed
94 in different algorithm sections, they require their own scaling
95 factors. In addition, any static buffers, e.g. filter states, require a
96 separate scaling factor as well. The code takes care to do the proper
97 adjustment, if scaling factors of a filter state and the time signal differ.

112   Dynamic scaling is used to achieve sufficient accuracy even when the signal
113   energy is low.  The dynamic framing of SBR produces a variable overlap area
114   where samples from the previous QMF-Analysis are stored. Depending on the
115   start position and stop position of the current SBR envelopes, the processing
116   buffer consists of differently scaled regions like illustrated in the below
117   figure.
