Abstract

A module (402) for binary coding of a signal envelope, comprising coding module (502) for coding a variable length first mode. The coding module for coding the first mode incorporates an envelope saturation detector and said coding module (402) further includes a second coding module (503) for coding a second mode in parallel with the coding module (502) for coding the first mode and a mode selector (504) adapted to select one of the two coding modes as a function of a code length criterion and of the result from the envelope saturation detector.
