Abstract

A method, and the apparatus for its implementation, for encoding an input signal includes the steps of transforming an input signal into frequency components, as for example by spectrum transform processing, separating the frequency components into a first signal consisting of tone characteristic components and a second signal consisting of other components, encoding the first signal, and encoding a signal based on the second signal.
