1. An apparatus for decoding an audio signal, comprising:
- a receiving interface for receiving a plurality of frames, wherein the receiving interface is configured to receive a first frame of the plurality of frames, said first frame comprising a first audio signal portion of the audio signal, said first audio signal portion being represented in a first domain, and wherein the receiving interface is configured to receive a second frame of the plurality of frames, said second frame comprising a second audio signal portion of the audio signal,a transform unit for transforming the second audio signal portion or a value or signal derived from the second audio signal portion from a second domain to a tracing domain to acquire a second signal portion information, wherein the second domain is different from the first domain, wherein the tracing domain is different from the second domain, and wherein the tracing domain is equal to or different from the first domain,a noise level tracing unit, wherein the noise level tracing unit is configured to receive a first signal portion information being represented in the tracing domain, wherein the first signal portion information depends on the first audio signal portion, wherein the noise level tracing unit is configured to receive the second signal portion being represented in the tracing domain, and wherein the noise level tracing unit is configured to determine noise level information depending on the first signal portion information being represented in the tracing domain and depending on the second signal portion information being represented in the tracing domain, wherein the noise level information is represented in the tracing domain.

Abstract
An apparatus for decoding an audio signal includes a receiving interface, wherein the receiving interface is configured to receive a first frame and a second frame. Moreover, the apparatus includes a noise level tracing unit for determining noise level information being represented in a tracing domain. Furthermore, the apparatus includes a first reconstruction unit for reconstructing a third audio signal portion of the audio signal depending on the noise level information and a second reconstruction unit for reconstructing a fourth audio signal portion depending on noise level information being represented in the second reconstruction domain.
