11. A decoding apparatus for decoding an encoded stream including a first code and at least one second code, the first code being generated so as to represent an average amplitude of a frequency spectrum stream of one of a plurality of frequency bands, and each of the at least one second code is generated by quantizing and encoding the frequency spectrum stream of the one of the frequency bands, the decoding apparatus comprising:
-
an encoded stream analysis section for analyzing the encoded stream so as to detect the first code and the at least one second code;
a band gain de-quantization section for de-quantizing the first code detected by the encoded stream analysis section into the average amplitude of the frequency spectrum stream;
an encoding band notification section for notifying whether or not the frequency band corresponding to the at least one second code includes a frequency band corresponding to the first code;
a spectrum de-quantization section for de-quantizing and decoding the second code into the frequency spectrum stream based on the notification by the encoding band notification section that the frequency band corresponding to the at least one second code includes a frequency band corresponding to the first code;
a noise spectrum stream generation section for generating a noise spectrum stream based on the notification by the encoding band notification section that the frequency band corresponding to the at least one second code does not include any frequency band corresponding to the first code; and
an amplification section for amplifying the frequency spectrum stream or the noise spectrum stream based on the average amplitude. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
