Parametric modelling provides an efficient representation of general audio signals and is utilised in very low bit rate audio coding. It is based on the decomposition of an audio signal into components which are described by appropriate source models and represented by model parameters. Perception models are utilised in signal decomposition and model parameter coding. This paper gives a brief tutorial overview of parametric audio coding and describes the parametric coder currently developed in the MPEG-4 audio standardisation. Recent advances as well as novel approaches in this field are presented
