SCALABLE ENCODING DEVICE, SCALABLE DECODING DEVICE, AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

There is disclosed a scalable encoding device capable of increasing the conversion performance from a narrow- band LSP to a wide-band LSP (prediction accuracy when predicting the wide- band LSP from the narrow-band LSP) and realizing a high-performance band scalable LSP encoding. The device includes a conversion coefficient calculation unit (109) for calculating a conversion coefficient by using a narrow-band quantization LSP which has been outputted from a narrow- band LSP encoding unit (103) and a wide-band quantization LSP which has been outputted from a wide-band LSP encoding unit (107). The wide-band LSP encoding unit (107) multiplies the narrow-band quantization LSP with the conversion coefficient inputted from the conversion coefficient calculation unit (109) so as to convert it into a wide-band LSP. The wide- band LSP is multiplied by a weight coefficient to calculate a prediction wide-band LSP. The wide-band LSP encoding unit (107) encodes an error signal between the obtained prediction wide-band LSP and the wide-band LSP so as to obtain a wide-band quantization LSP. ® KIPO & WIPO 2007
