Abstract

The present invention provides a transform coding method efficient for music signals that is suitable for use in a hybrid codec, whereby a common Linear Predictive (LP) synthesis filter is employed for both speech and music signals. The LP synthesis filter switches between a speech excitation generator and a transform excitation generator, in accordance with the coding of a speech or music signal, respectively. For coding speech signals, the conventional CELP technique may be used, while a novel asymmetrical overlap-add transform technique is applied for coding music signals. In performing the common LP synthesis filtering, interpolation of the LP coefficients is conducted for signals in overlap-add operation regions. The invention enables smooth transitions when the decoder switches between speech and music decoding modes.
