AAC-LD

The MPEG-4 Low Delay Audio Coder (a.k.a. AAC Low Delay, or AAC-LD) is audio compression standard designed to combine the advantages of perceptual audio coding with the low delay necessary for two-way communication. It is closely derived from the MPEG-2 Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) standard. It was published in MPEG-4 Audio Version 2 (ISO/IEC 14496-3:1999/Amd 1:2000) and in its later revisions.

AAC-LD uses a version of the modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) audio coding technique called the LD-MDCT. AAC-LD is widely used by Apple as the voice-over-IP (VoIP) speech codec in FaceTime.
