Abstract
Abstract An apparatus for decoding a compressed and coded sound signal by applying thereto an inverse quantization processing and a synthesis processing is arranged to include a data extracting unit for extracting quantization level data, scale factor data and quantization data from a data stream of the compressed and coded sound signal, and an integrated processing unit for processing the extracted data by use of an integrated operational equation which is obtained by combining a first operational equation used for the inverse quantization processing with a second operational equation used for the synthesis processing.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
278 words
An apparatus for decoding a compressed and coded sound signal, comprising: data extracting means for extracting quantization level data, scaler factor data and quantization data from a data stream of compressed and coded sound signal; and integrated processing means for processing the extracted data by use of an integrated operational equation which is obtained from the combination of a first operational equation used for an inverse quantization processing and a second operational equation used for a synthesis processing, said integrated operation equation being represented by a multiplicational product of a first term which represents a value determined as a function of said quantization level data and said quantization data and a second term which is represented by an exponential function having an exponent of a value specified by said scale factor data; and wherein said integrated processing means includes: storing means for storing as a table, values of said exponential function corresponding to all possible values of a fraction part of said exponent; separating means for separating said exponent specified by the extracted scale factor data into an integer part and the fraction part; first operational processing means for determining a first operation value represented by a multiplication product of the value of said exponential function which is read from said storing means corresponding to a value of said fractional part separated by said separating means and a value of said first term which corresponds to the extracted quantization level and quantization data; and second operational processing means for determining a second operation value by applying to said first operation value shift operation on the basis of a value of said integer part separated by said separating means.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
278 words
An apparatus for decoding a compressed and coded sound signal, comprising: data extracting means for extracting quantization level data, scaler factor data and quantization data from a data stream of compressed and coded sound signal; and integrated processing means for processing the extracted data by use of an integrated operational equation which is obtained from the combination of a first operational equation used for an inverse quantization processing and a second operational equation used for a synthesis processing, said integrated operation equation being represented by a multiplicational product of a first term which represents a value determined as a function of said quantization level data and said quantization data and a second term which is represented by an exponential function having an exponent of a value specified by said scale factor data; and wherein said integrated processing means includes: storing means for storing as a table, values of said exponential function corresponding to all possible values of a fraction part of said exponent; separating means for separating said exponent specified by the extracted scale factor data into an integer part and the fraction part; first operational processing means for determining a first operation value represented by a multiplication product of the value of said exponential function which is read from said storing means corresponding to a value of said fractional part separated by said separating means and a value of said first term which corresponds to the extracted quantization level and quantization data; and second operational processing means for determining a second operation value by applying to said first operation value shift operation on the basis of a value of said integer part separated by said separating means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
42 words
An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said storing means stores data values of a multiplication product of the values of said exponential function corresponding to all possible values of a fraction of said exponent and values of a predetermined cosine function.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
31 words
An apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising means for cumulatively adding the second operation values obtained by said second operational processing means, respectively, based on values of said integer part.
