Scalable speech coding/decoding apparatus, method, and medium having mixed structure

摘要

Provided are a scalable wide-band speech coding/decoding apparatus, method, and medium. An input wide-band speech input signal is first divided into a low-band signal and a high-band signal. The divided low-band signal is then coded using a code excited linear prediction (CELP) method. The divided high-band signal is coded using a harmonic method. A signal representing a difference between a synthetic signal obtained from the low-band and the high band, and a signal input to the low-band and the high-band is then coded using a modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) method. The coded signal is then multiplexed. The multiplexed signal is then output. Accordingly, high quality speech can be achieved for all layers.
