Abstract
Provided are an apparatus and a method for integrally encoding and decoding a speech signal and an audio signal. The encoding apparatus may include: an input signal analyzer to analyze a characteristic of an input signal; a first conversion encoder to convert the input signal to a frequency domain signal, and to encode the input signal when the input signal is an audio characteristic signal; a Linear Predictive Coding (LPC) encoder to perform LPC encoding of the input signal when the input signal is a speech characteristic signal; a frequency band expander for expanding a frequency band of the input signal whose output is transmitted to either the time-domain encoding module or the transform encoding module based on the input characteristic; and a bitstream generator to generate a bitstream using an output signal of the first conversion encoder and an output signal of the LPC encoder.
