    Abstract: Provided are a method of adaptively determining a quantization step according to a masking effect in a psychoacoustics model and a method of encoding/decoding an audio signal by using the determined quantization step. The method of adaptively determining a quantization step includes calculating a first ratio value indicating an intensity of an input audio signal with respect to a masking threshold; and determining the maximum value of the quantization step in a range in which noise generated when the audio signal is quantized is masked, according to the first ratio value.
