AUDIO CODING DEVICE, METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM

摘要

An audio coding device includes a time-to-frequency converter that performs time-to-frequency conversion on each frame of a signal in at least one channel included in an audio signal in a predetermined length of time in order to convert the signal in the at least one channel to a frequency signal; a complexity calculator that calculates complexity of the frequency signal for each of the at least one channel. The audio further includes a bit allocation controller that determines a number of bits to be allocated to each of at least one channel so that more bits are allocated to the each of the at least one channel as the complexity of the each of at least one channel increases, and increases the number of bits to be allocated as an estimation error in the number; and a coder that codes the frequency signal.
