    摘要: Disclosed is a spectral smoothing device with a structure whereby smoothing is performed after a nonlinear conversion has been performed for a spectrum calculated from an audio signal, and with which the amount of processing calculation is significantly reduced while maintaining excellent audio quality. With this spectral smoothing device, a sub band division unit (102) divides an input spectrum into multiple sub bands; a representative value calculation unit (103) calculates a representative value for each sub band using an arithmetic mean and a geometric mean; with respect to each representative value, a nonlinear conversion unit (104) performs a nonlinear conversion the characteristic of which is further emphasized as the value increases; and a smoothing unit (105) that smoothes the representative value which has undergone the nonlinear conversion for each sub band, at the frequency domain.

    摘要: Provided is an encoding device which can reduce the encoding distortion as compared to the conventional technique and can obtain a preferable sound quality for auditory sense. In the encoding device, a shape quantization unit (111) quantizes the shape of an input spectrum with a small number of pulse positions and polarities. The shape quantization unit (111) sets a pulse amplitude width to be searched later upon search of the pulse position to a value not greater than the pulse amplitude width which has been searched previously. A gain quantization unit (112) calculates a gain of a pulse searched by the shape quantization unit (111) for each of bands.

    摘要: Disclosed is an encoding device which can accurately specify a band having a large error among all the bands by using a small calculation amount. The device includes: a first position identification unit (201) which uses a first layer error conversion coefficient indicating an error of decoding signal for an input signal so as to search for a band having a large error in a relatively wide bandwidth in all the bands of the input signal and generates first position information indicating the identified band; a second position identification unit (202) which searches for a target frequency band having a large error in a relatively narrow bandwidth in the band identified by the first position identification unit (201) and generates second position information indicating the identified target frequency band; and an encoding unit (203) which encodes a first layer decoding error conversion coefficient contained in the target frequency band. The first position information, the second position information, and the encoding unit are transmitted to a communication partner.
