Abstract

A method of enhancing speech quality includes: generating a high-frequency signal by using a low-frequency signal in a time domain; combining the low-frequency signal with the high-frequency signal; transforming the combined signal into a spectrum in a frequency domain; determining a class of a decoded speech signal; predicting an envelope from a low-frequency spectrum obtained in the transforming; and generating a final high-frequency spectrum by applying the predicted envelope to a high-frequency spectrum obtained in the transforming.
