Abstract

A frequency spectral distribution of sound signal has a plurality of discrete data at respective channels where sampling takes place. Such a spectral distribution, defining a parallel signal, is converted into a time series signal which is used to produce a peak-detected signal and a zero-cross signal. Then, based on the timing of the zero-cross signal, the peak-detected signal is compared with the original parallel signal to process the original parallel signal to be binary-valued. The present invention provides a simple hardware structure having the above-described function.
