After dividing voice signals into subframes, the voice coder of the present invention calculates auditory sense masking threshold values for each subframe with a masking threshold value calculating circuit (205), and transforms the auditory sense masking threshold values to auditory sense weighting filter coefficients. An auditory sense weighting circuit (220) performs auditory sense weighting to the signals using the auditory sense weighting filter coefficients and searches excitation codebooks or multipulses using auditory sense weighted signals. <IMAGE> |
