Abstract
There is provided an audio encoding apparatus including a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory and the processor configured to determine whether a tone is included in a boundary between a low-frequency that is a frequency bandwidth below a predetermined frequency of an input signal and a high-frequency that is a frequency bandwidth above the predetermined frequency of the input signal, suppress a tone in one of the low-frequency and the high-frequency, encode the input signal having the low-frequency to generate a low-frequency code, encode the input signal having the high-frequency to generate a high-frequency code, and generate an encoded stream by multiplexing the low-frequency code and the high-frequency code.
