Abstract

A fingerprint of an audio signal is generated based on the energy content in frequency subbands. Processing techniques assure a robust identification fingerprint that will be useful for signals altered subsequent to the generation of the fingerprint. The fingerprint is compared to a database to identify the audio signal.
