1. Apparatus for assessing an energy of a signal having audio subband signals generated by filtering the signal using a real-valued analysis filterbank, the real-valued filterbank having subband filters, adjacent subband filters of the real-valued filterbank having transition bands overlapping in an overlapping range, comprising:

  • an examiner for examining an audio subband signal originating from a subband filter and an adjacent audio subband signal originating from an adjacent subband filter, to determine whether the audio subband signal and the adjacent audio subband signal have aliasing generating signal components in the overlapping range to obtain grouped audio subband signals in response to a result of the examination indicating that the audio subband signal and the adjacent audio subband signal have aliasing generating signal components in the overlapping range; and

    a calculator for calculating an energy estimate for an energy in the grouped adjacent audio subband signals,wherein the apparatus for assessing comprises a hardware implementation.
