First Claim
Patent Images
1. A coding mode determination method for an audio signal, the method comprising:
- determining a coding mode of a current frame based on a first plurality of signal characteristics of the current frame, from among a plurality of coding modes including a music coding mode and a speech coding mode;
obtaining a second plurality of signal characteristics from a first plurality of frames;
determining, performed by at least one processing device, whether to change the determined coding mode of the current frame, based on the second plurality of signal characteristics and a parameter to prevent frequent switching among the plurality of coding modes; and
when the determined coding mode of the current frame is determined to be changed, changing the determined coding mode of the current frame to another mode among the plurality of coding modes,wherein the second plurality of signal characteristics include a signal characteristic determined based on the current frame and a predetermined number of previous frames.

Abstract
Provided is a method and apparatus for determining a signal coding mode. The signal coding mode may be determined or changed according to whether a current frame corresponds to a silence period and by using a history of speech or music presence possibilities.

3. An encoding method for an audio signal, the method comprising:
-
determining a coding mode of a current frame based on a first plurality of signal characteristics of the current frame, from among a plurality of coding modes including a music coding mode and a speech coding mode; obtaining a second plurality of signal characteristics from a plurality of frames; determining, performed by at least one processing device, whether to change the determined coding mode of the current frame, based on the second plurality of signal characteristics and a parameter to prevent frequent switching among the plurality of coding modes; when the determined coding mode of the current frame is determined to be changed, changing the determined coding mode of the current frame to another mode among the plurality of coding modes; encoding the current frame, according to either the determined coding mode when the determined coding mode of the current frame is determined not to be changed or the changed coding mode when the determined coding mode of the current frame is determined to be changed; and transmitting a bitstream including a result of the encoding, for reproduction of music or speech, wherein the second plurality of signal characteristics include a signal characteristic determined based on the current frame and a predetermined number of previous frames. - View Dependent Claims (4)
