<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an encoding method improving acoustic feeling quality of a multi-channel audio signal. <P>SOLUTION: The method includes a step of generating a first output signal x'<SB>mono</SB>to be an encoding parameter expressing a main signal x<SB>mono</SB>and a step of generating a second output signal p<SB>side</SB>to be an encoding parameter expressing a sub signal x<SB>side</SB>, wherein the main signal x<SB>mono</SB>is a first linear combination of at least signals 16A, 16B of first and second channels. The sub signal x<SB>side</SB>is a second linear combination of at least the signals 16A, 16B of the first and second channels in the encoding frame. The step of generating the second output signal includes a step of scaling the sub signal x<SB>side</SB>according to an isoenergetic curve of the main signal x<SB>mono</SB>. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
