Method of processing audio signal
TL;DR: In this paper, a masking threshold level for reducing aurally recognized noise due to masking effect is determined using a signal spectral distribution in a present frame and a signal spectrum distribution in the past frame.
Patent
Method for processing voice signal
TL;DR: In this paper, a high band formant emphasis process emphasizing peaks and troughs of a frequency spectrum envelope on the high band side is performed as a first emphasis process of a step S1.
Patent
Device and method for phase quantization
TL;DR: In this article, a phase detection part 12 finds the phase of the input signal based upon the voice signal from an input teminal 11 and a scalar quantizer 13 performs scalar Quantization, according to the LPC coefficient from a terminal 17, a weight calculation part 18 calculates the spectrum amplitude weight of each harmonic and a bit allocation calculation part 19 calculates optimum quantization allocation bits of respective harmonics by using the weight (k) and sends them to the scalar numerizer 13.
Patent
Method and device for encoding speech and method and device for encoding audible signal
TL;DR: In this paper, an LPC inverse filter is used to find the LPC residue of an input speech signal and a vector quantization part 116 performs auditory weighted vector quantisation for parameters obtained through the sine wave analytic encoding of a sine-wave analytic encoding part 114, where parameters based upon the impulse response of a weight transfer function are calculated according to the result of orthogonal transformation.
Patent
