摘要:
An energy corrector (105) for correcting a target energy for high-frequency components and a corrective coefficient calculator (106) for calculating an energy corrective coefficient from low-frequency subband signals are newly provided. These processors perform a process for correcting a target energy that is required when a band expanding process is performed on a real number only. Thus, a real subband combining filter and a real band expander which require a smaller amount of calculations can be used instead of a complex subband combining filter and a complex band expander, while maintaining a high sound-quality level, and the required amount of calculations and the apparatus scale can be reduced.

An audio decoding apparatus decodes high frequency component signals using a band expander that generates multiple high frequency subband signals from low frequency subband signals divided into multiple subbands and transmitted high frequency encoded information. The apparatus is provided with an aliasing detector and an aliasing remover. The aliasing detector detects the degree of occurrence of aliasing components in the multiple high frequency subband signals generated by the band expander. The aliasing remover suppresses aliasing components in the high frequency subband signals by adjusting the gain used to generate the high frequency subband signals. Thus occurrence of aliasing can be suppressed and the resulting degradation in sound quality can be reduced, even when real-valued subband signals are used in order to reduce the number of operations.

A wideband, high quality audio signal is decoded with few calculations at a low bitrate. Unwanted spectrum components accompanying sinusoidal signal injection by a synthesis subband filter built with real-value operations are suppressed by inserting a suppression signal to subbands adjacent to the subband to which the sine wave is injected. This makes it possible to inject a desired sinusoid with few calculations.

摘要:
In the conventional art inventions for coding multi-channel audio signals, three of the major processes involved are: generation of a reverberation signal using an all-pass filter; segmentation of a signal in the time and frequency domains for the purpose of level adjustment; and mixing of a coded binaural signal with an original signal coded up to a fixed crossover frequency. These processes pose the problems mentioned in the present invention. The present invention proposes the following three embodiments: to control the extent of reverberations by dynamically adjusting all-pass filter coefficients with the inter-channel coherence cues; to segment a signal in the time domain finely in the lower frequency region and coarsely in the higher frequency region; and to control a crossover frequency used for mixing based on a bit rate, and if the original signal is coarsely quantized, to mix a downmix signal with an original signal in proportions determined by an inter-channel coherence cue.

An encoding device (200) includes an MDCT unit (202) that transforms an input signal in a time domain into a frequency spectrum including a lower frequency spectrum, a BWE encoding unit (204) that generates extension data which specifies a higher frequency spectrum at a higher frequency than the lower frequency spectrum, and an encoded data stream generating unit (205) that encodes to output the lower frequency spectrum obtained by the MDCT unit (202) and the extension data obtained by the BWE encoding unit (204). The BWE encoding unit (204) generates as the extension data (i) a first parameter which specifies a lower subband which is to be copied as the higher frequency spectrum from among a plurality of the lower subbands which form the lower frequency spectrum obtained by the MDCT unit (202) and (ii) a second parameter which specifies a gain of the lower subband after being copied.
