摘要:
A system for encoding audio signals, transmitting or recording the encoded audio signals, and then decoding the transmitted audio signal includes a circuit for determining the block length of the input audio signals based upon detected values of predetermined portions of the input signal and then performing an orthogonal conversion of the determined block length signal, in which the signal is orthogonally transformed from a time-domain signal to a frequency-domain signal. Following quantization, the converted and encoded signal is transmitted and upon performing reverse quantization, a reverse orthogonal converting circuit converts the signal back to the time-domain in keeping with the signal providing information concerning the various block lengths that were determined during encoding. The converted time-domain signals are then connected into a smooth waveform to form output audio signals.

摘要:
A digital signal encoding apparatus in which input digital signals are divided into a plurality of frequency bands so that the bandwidth of each frequency band will be greater the higher the frequency band, the allowable noise level is set for each frequency band on the basis of the energy value of each frequency band, and components of each frequency band are quantized with the number of bits consistent with the level difference between the energy of each frequency band and the preset allowable noise level. The output information volume following the quantization is detected and the number of bits of allocation for quantization is corrected in dependence upon the error between the detection output and the target value to render the information volume constant over a predetermined time period to enable bit rate adjustment or bit packing with lesser signal deterioration by a simplified construction.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a digital signal encoding apparatus in which an input digital signal has its frequency range divided into a number of frequency bands so that the bandwidths are broader at higher frequencies. A first allowable noise level based on the energy levels in the respective bands, and a second allowable noise level based on the energies of the signals temporally adjacent to the signals of a frequency band under consideration, are set. Signal components of each frequency band are quantized with a number of bits corresponding to a difference between an output synthesized from the first and second noise levels and the energy level of each frequency band. In this manner, the bit rate may be lowered while deterioration in the sound quality is minimized.
摘要:
A small-sized audio signal reproducing apparatus for hearing reproduced audio signals with the aid of a headphone is disclosed. Digitized and compression encoded audio signals, stored in a semiconductor memory, are read out so as to undergo a decoding operation, which is an inverse operation to compression encoding, to reproduce the audio signals, and the reproduced signals are heard by the headphone. The apparatus may be significantly reduced in size and weight as compared to the apparatus in which a tape or a disk is used as the recording medium.
