| 20080255832 | Scalable Encoding Apparatus and Scalable Encoding Method - A scalable encoding apparatus wherein stereo audio signals can be scalable encoded by use of a CELP encoding to improve the encoding efficiency. In the apparatus, an adder and a multiplier obtain an average of first and second channel signals as a monophonic signal. A CELP encoding part performs a CELP encoding of the monophonic signal. A first channel difference information encoding part performs an encoding of the first channel signal in conformance with the CELP encoding and obtains a difference between a resulting encoded parameter and an encoded parameter outputted from the CELP encoding part. The first channel difference information encoding part then encodes this difference and outputs the resulting encoded parameter. | 10-16-2008 |
