Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to an apparatus and a concomitant method for decoding an audio signal. More particularly, the invention relates to a method for increasing the precision of arithmetic operations that are performed in the course of decoding an audio signal. A rounding method to increase the precision of an audio decoder during arithmetic and/or shifting operations is disclosed. The most significant bit of the discarded bits is evaluated for a rounding up operation.
