Abstract

Method and device of extending a signal band of a voice or audio signal are provided. The bandwidth extension method includes the steps of: performing a modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) process on an input signal to generate a first transform signal; generating a second transform signal and a third transform signal on the basis of the first transform signal; generating normalized components and energy components of the first transform signal, the second transform signal, and the third transform signal therefrom; generating an extended normalized component from the normalized components and generating an extended energy component from the energy components; generating an extended transform signal on the basis of the extended normalized component and the extended energy component; and performing an inverse MDCT (IMDCT) process on the extended transform signal.
