MUSIC INFORMATION ENCODING DEVICE AND METHOD, AND MUSIC INFORMATION DECODING DEVICE AND METHOD

摘要

In an audio-information encoding apparatus, in order to encode an audio signal containing a white-noise component, an index iL indicating the energy level of the white-noise component and an index iR designating the start index of a random-number table are introduced into a code train. In an audio-information decoding apparatus (20), a white-noise generating unit (25) uses the indices iL and iR contained in the code train, thereby generating a white-noise signal Sw(t) on the time axis, which has the same level as the white noise, and an adder (26) adds the white-noise signal to an audio signal Sf(t) decoded on the time axis, outputting as an output audio signal So(t). <IMAGE>
