Abstract
An audio signal coding device divides a frequency spectrum obtained from an input digital signal to a plurality of bands, scales and quantizes divided frequency spectra based on a scalefactor of each of the bands and a common scale which is common to the plurality of bands, and codes quantized frequency spectra. The audio signal coding device includes a band number determination unit configured to calculate a number of coding bands for coding the quantized frequency spectra, and a common scale estimation unit configured to estimate the common scale in accordance with the number of coding bands.
