Abstract:
Provided is a method and apparatus for encoding or decoding a signal corresponding to a high frequency band in an audio signal. The method and apparatus for encoding a high frequency band detects and encodes frequency component(s) according to a pre-set criterion from a signal corresponding to a frequency band higher than a pre-set frequency and encodes energy value(s) of a signal to reconstruct band(s) in which the detected frequency component(s) are included. The method and apparatus for decoding a high frequency band decodes the signal by adjusting a signal to reconstruct a band in which important frequency component(s) are included by considering an energy value of the important frequency component(s). Accordingly, even though encoding or decoding is performed using a small number of bits, there is no degradation in sound quality of a signal corresponding to a high frequency band, and thus coding efficiency can be maximized.
