    摘要: The range of disclosed configurations includes methods in which subbands of a speech signal are separately encoded, with the excitation of a first subband being derived from a second subband. Gain factors are calculated to indicate a time-varying relation between envelopes of the original first subband and of the synthesized first subband. The gain factors are quantized, and quantized values that exceed the pre-quantized values are re-coded.

    摘要: An audio encoder for encoding an audio signal includes an impulse extractor for extracting an impulse-like portion from the audio signal. This impulse-like portion is encoded and forwarded to an output interface. Furthermore, the audio encoder includes a signal encoder which encodes a residual signal derived from the original audio signal so that the impulse-like portion is reduced or eliminated in the residual audio signal. The output interface forwards both, the encoded signals, i.e., the encoded impulse signal and the encoded residual signal for transmission or storage. On the decoder-side, both signal portions are separately decoded and then combined to obtain a decoded audio signal.

    摘要: Disclosed herein is a quantization method and apparatus of an audio encoder. The quantization method comprises calculating an absolute value of a maximum frequency spectrum of a first frame, externally received, by analyzing frequency spectrum data of the first frame, setting an initial value of a common scale factor to be used to quantize the first frame based on the absolute value of the maximum frequency spectrum of the first frame and an absolute value of a maximum frequency spectrum of a second frame, which has previously been calculated, and quantizing the frequency spectrum data of the first frame based on the set initial value of the common scale factor. Accordingly, before quantization is performed, an initial value of a common scale factor which is almost close to a value of an actual common scale factor can be previously set.

    摘要: Provided is a method and apparatus for encoding or decoding a signal corresponding to a high frequency band in an audio signal. The method and apparatus for encoding a high frequency band detects and encodes frequency component(s) according to a pre-set criterion from a signal corresponding to a frequency band higher than a pre-set frequency and encodes energy value(s) of a signal to reconstruct band(s) in which the detected frequency component(s) are included. The method and apparatus for decoding a high frequency band decodes the signal by adjusting a signal to reconstruct a band in which important frequency component(s) are included by considering an energy value of the important frequency component(s). Accordingly, even though encoding or decoding is performed using a small number of bits, there is no degradation in sound quality of a signal corresponding to a high frequency band, and thus coding efficiency can be maximized.
