METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SPLIT-BAND ENCODING OF SPEECH SIGNALS

摘要

A wideband speech encoder according to one embodiment includes a filter bank having a lowband processing path and a highband processing path. The processing paths have overlapping frequency responses. A first encoder is configured to encode a speech signal produced by the lowband processing path according to a first coding methodology. A second encoder is configured to encode a speech signal produced by the highband processing path according to a second coding methodology that is different than the first coding methodology.
