SOUND ENCODER, SOUND DECODER, AND THEIR METHODS
First Claim
1. A speech coding apparatus comprising:
- a first coding section that encodes a low band of an input signal and generates first encoded data;
a first decoding section that decodes the first encoded data and generates a first decoded signal;
a second coding section that sets a filter state of a filter based on a spectrum of the first decoded signal and generates second encoded data by encoding a high band of the input signal using the filter; and
a determining section that determines a band of the spectrum of the first decoded signal that is used to set the filter state of the filter, according to noise characteristics of the spectrum of the first decoded signal,wherein the second coding section sets the filter state of the filter based on the spectrum of the first decoded signal of the determined band.

Abstract
A sound encoder enabling prevention of deterioration of the sound quality of a reproduced signal even if the harmonic structure is broken in a part of the sound signal. The filter state position determining section (111) of the sound encoder judges the noise characteristic of the first-layer decoding spectrum and thereby determines the band of the first-layer decoding spectrum to be used to set the filter state. A filter state setting section (112) sets the first-layer decoding spectrum contained in the determined band out of the first-layer decoding spectrum as the filter state. A filtering section (113) performs filtering of the first-layer decoding spectrum according to the set filter state and the pitch coefficient and computes an estimate spectrum of the input spectrum. An optimal pitch coefficient is determined by a closed loop processing from the filtering section (113) through a search section (114) to a filter information setting section (115).
