Abstract

An expansion processor has a buffer defining unit for defining one of two buffers as a present inverse quantization buffer and defining one of two buffers as a present restoration buffer, an inverse quantization processor for inversely quantizing a quantized value read for each sample from a DCT data buffer, an IDCT processor for effecting an IDCT process on the inversely quantized data to restore time-domain audio data from frequency-domain data, a low-pass filter processor for removing a high-frequency component from the restored audio data, and an audio data output unit for outputting successive restored samples of audio data to a DAC to output sound from a speaker.
