    摘要: An encoding device enables the amount of processing operations to be significantly reduced while minimizing deterioration in the quality of an output signal. This encoding device (101) encodes an input signal by determining the correlation between a first signal generated by using the input signal and a second signal generated by a predetermined method. An importance assessment unit (202) sets the importance of each of a plurality of processing units obtained by dividing the frames of the input signal. A CELP coder (203) performs sparse processing in which the amplitude value of a predetermined number of samples among multiple samples constituted by the first signal and/or the second signal in each processing unit is set to zero according to the importance that was set for each processing unit, and calculates the correlation between the first signal and the second signal, either of which was subjected to sparse processing.

    摘要: It is possible to improve quality of a decoding signal in a band spread for estimating a high band from a low band of a decoding signal. A first layer encoding unit (202) encodes a lower band portion below a predetermined frequency of an input signal so as to generate first layer encoded information. A first layer decoding unit (203) decodes the first layer encoded information so as to generate a first layer demodulated signal. A second layer encoding unit (206) divides a high band portion higher than a predetermined frequency of an input signal into a plurality of sub-bands and estimates each of the sub-bands from the input signal or the first layer decoded signal by using the estimation result of the sub-band adjacent to the lower band side so as to generate second encoded information including the estimation results of the sub-bands.

    摘要: A coding device is provided with features in which optimum coding in a higher layer is flexibly carried out based on a coding result of a lower layer and a quality audio signal in limited circumstances is served to users. In this coding device, a basic layer coding unit codes an input signal to generate a basic layer information source code and outputs a linear prediction coefficient (LPC) and a quantum LPC, which are parameters calculated at coding, to an expanded layer control unit. A basic layer decoding unit decodes the basic layer information source code. An adding unit reverses a polarity of a basic layer decoded signal, adds the same to the input signal, and calculates a difference signal. The expanded layer control unit generates expanded layer mode information indicative of a coding mode in an expanded layer based on the LPC and the quantum LPC. An expanded layer coding unit codes the difference signal obtained from the adding unit under control of the expanded layer control unit.
