Abstract:
Disclosed are a high-band encoding/decoding method and device for bandwidth extension. A high-band encoding method comprising the steps of: generating sub band-specific bit allocation information on the basis of a low-band envelope; determining, on the basis of the sub band-specific bit allocation information, the sub band requiring an envelope update in a high band; and generating, for the determined sub band, refinement data relating to the envelope update. A high-band decoding method comprising the steps of: generating sub band-specific bit allocation information on the basis of a low-band envelope; determining, on the basis of the sub band-specific bit allocation information, the sub band requiring an envelope update in a high band; and decoding, for the determined sub band, refinement data relating to the envelope update, thereby updating the envelope.

The frame error concealment method includes generating a new signal by synthesizing a plurality of previous signals that are similar to a signal of an error frame and reconstructing the signal of the error frame using the generated signal.
Abstract:
A spectrum coding method includes quantizing spectral data of a current band based on a first quantization scheme, generating a lower bit of the current band using the spectral data and the quantized spectral data, quantizing a sequence of lower bits including the lower bit of the current band based on a second quantization scheme, and generating a bitstream based on a upper bit excluding N bits, where N is 1 or greater, from the quantized spectral data and the quantized sequence of lower bits.

Provided is a method and apparatus for encoding/decoding an audio signal. Sections which are not used to output noise components near important spectral components and sub-bands which are not used to output noise components, are determined to be encoded or decoded, so that the efficiency of encoding and decoding an audio signal increases, and sound quality can be improved using less bits.
