Provided are a frame error concealment method and apparatus and an error concealment scheme construction method and apparatus. The frame error concealment method includes generating a new signal by synthesizing a plurality of previous signals that are similar to a signal of an error frame and reconstructing the signal of the error frame using the generated signal.

Frame error concealment method and apparatus and error concealment scheme construction method and apparatus

An error concealment method and apparatus for an audio signal and a decoding method and apparatus for an audio signal using the error concealment method and apparatus. The error concealment method includes selecting one of an error concealment in a frequency domain and an error concealment in a time domain as an error concealment scheme for a current frame based on a predetermined criteria when an error occurs in the current frame, selecting one of a repetition scheme and an interpolation scheme in the frequency domain as the error concealment scheme for the current frame based on a predetermined criteria when the error concealment in the frequency domain is selected, and concealing the error of the current frame using the selected scheme.

Error concealment method and apparatus for audio signal and decoding method and apparatus for audio signal using the same

Provided are a method and apparatus for encoding and decoding an audio signal. According to the present application, a signal of a high frequency band above a preset frequency band is adaptively encoded or decoded in the time domain or in the frequency domain by using a signal of a low frequency band below the preset frequency band. As such, the sound quality of a high frequency signal is not deteriorate even when an audio signal is encoded or decoded by using a small number of bits and thus coding efficiency may be maximized.

A method and apparatus to convert a linear predictive coding (LPC) coefficient into a coefficient having order characteristics, such as a line spectrum frequency (LSF), and to vector quantize the coefficient having the order characteristics when a speech signal is encoded. The method and apparatus split the vector of the coefficient having the order characteristics into a plurality of subvectors, select a codebook in which an available bit is variably allocated to each subvector according to distribution of elements of each subvector, and quantize each subvector according to the selected codebook. The method and apparatus use normalized codebooks.
