Abstract
A technology of accurately coding and decoding coefficients which are convertible into linear prediction coefficients even for a frame in which the spectrum variation is great while suppressing an increase in the code amount as a whole is provided. A coding device includes: a first coding unit that obtains a first code by coding coefficients which are convertible into linear prediction coefficients of more than one order; and a second coding unit that obtains a second code by coding at least quantization errors of the first coding unit if (A−1) an index Q commensurate with how high the peak-to-valley height of a spectral envelope is, the spectral envelope corresponding to the coefficients which are convertible into the linear prediction coefficients of more than one order, is larger than or equal to a predetermined threshold value Th1 and/or (B−1) an index Q' commensurate with how short the peak-to-valley height of the spectral envelope is, is smaller than or equal to a predetermined threshold value Th1′.
