1. A signal encoding method for quantizing and encoding signal components resulting from resolution of an input signal into plural frequency components, comprising:

  • splitting the signal components of the input signal into plural band units as encoding units;

    computing an estimated value of the required number of bits as calculated from one band unit to another; and

    adjusting the total number of bits required in encoding the signal components of the input signal based on the estimated value of the required number of bits as computed from one band unit to another.
