Abstract
An apparatus and method of low bit rate encoding and reproducing. The method includes transforming input audio signals in a time domain into spectral signals in a frequency domain, extracting important-spectrum components from the spectral signals in the frequency domain, and quantizing the important-spectrum components, extracting residual-spectrum components other than the important-spectrum components from the spectral signals in the frequency domain, and calculating and quantizing a noise level of the residual-spectrum components, and encoding the quantized important-spectrum components and the quantized noise level losslessly, and outputting encoded bitstreams.
