Audio coding and decoding methods and apparatuses and recording medium having recorded thereon programs for implementing them

摘要

In the CELP coding system a low-order synthesis filter and a cascade-connected synthesis filter formed by a cascade connection of low- and high-order synthesis filters are provided, a synthesized acoustic signal is estimated in a mode decision part for an input acoustic signal, and the estimated synthesized acoustic signal is subjected to inverse filtering by an inverse filter corresponding to the low-order synthesis filter and an inverse filter corresponding to the cascade-connected synthesis filter to obtain residual signals. That one of the synthesis filters which corresponds to the residual signal of smaller power is selected by a switch, and a codebook is searched for indices which will minimize the error between the output synthesized acoustic signal by the selected synthesis filter and the input acoustic signal.
