Abstract
An input acoustic signal is subjected to modified discrete cosine transform processing to obtain its spectrum characteristics. Linear prediction coefficients are derived from the input acoustic signal in a linear prediction coding analysis part, and the prediction coefficients are subjected to Fourier transform in a spectrum envelope calculation part to obtain the envelope of the spectrum characteristics of the input acoustic signal. In a normalization part the spectrum characteristics are normalized by the envelope thereof to obtain residual coefficients. Another normalization part normalizes the residual coefficients by a residual-coefficients envelope predicted in a residual-coefficients envelope calculation part, thereby obtaining fine structure coefficients, which are vector-quantized in a quantization part. A de-normalization part de-normalizes the quantized fine structure coefficients. The residual-coefficients envelope calculation part uses the reproduced residual coefficients to predict the envelope of residual coefficients of the subsequent frame.
