Abstract: The present technology relates to a device, a method, and a program for expanding a frequency band, which are capable of obtaining high-quality sound with a small processing amount. A low band extraction band-pass filter processing unit passes a predetermined band of a low band of an input signal and generates a low band sub band signal. A band-pass filter calculation circuit calculates band-pass filter coefficients of band-pass filters having sub bands of high bands as a pass band based on an estimate value of high band sub band power, and an addition unit obtains one filter coefficient by adding the band-pass filter coefficients. A poly-phase configuration level adjustment filter performs up-sampling and level adjustment by performing filtering on a flattened signal obtained from a low band sub band signal using the filter coefficient obtained by the addition unit, and generates a high band signal. An addition unit obtains an output signal by adding the high band signal to the low band signal. The present technology can be applied to a frequency band expanding device.
