Problems solved by technology

[0004] In the process of realizing the present invention, the inventor found that there are at least the following problems in the prior art: the codebook used in the prior art converts linear prediction coefficients into line spectrum frequency parameters, Mel cepstral coefficients and other representations In the domain, according to the relationship between low-frequency and high-frequency broadband signals, a codebook with high-frequency and low-frequency mapping relationship is trained. This codebook has a great relationship with the language used in the training process; when the language input by the encoder or When the language is different from the language or language used in the training codebook, the wideband linear prediction coefficient obtained according to the codebook may have a large error with the actual linear prediction coefficient, making the predicted wideband linear prediction coefficient very inaccurate , so that the quality performance of the acquired broadband signal is not very good
Therefore, when the existing technology processes different languages ​​or languages, the performance of the output signal may vary greatly

Embodiment 1

[0029] An embodiment of the present invention provides a frequency band extension method, such as figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0030] 101. Obtain the type of broadband signal; the type of the broadband signal is generally classified according to the characteristics of the signal itself, such as pitch period, zero-crossing rate and correlation, etc., which may include voiced signal, unvoiced signal, etc.; different The sound signals emitted by language and language include signal characteristics such as pitch period, zero-crossing rate and correlation. Therefore, when classifying broadband signals, they are not limited by language and language but only according to the characteristics of the signal itself. Speech signals from different languages ​​and languages ​​can obtain broadband signals with better quality during the process of frequency band expansion, thereby improving the auditory quality of the human ear.

[0042] An embodiment of the present invention provides a frequency band extension method, such as image 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0043] 301. Obtain the type of the broadband signal.

[0044] Among them, when extending the low-frequency signal to a high-frequency signal, since the spectrum fine structure and spectrum envelope characteristics of different types of signals are not the same, in order to enable various types of low-frequency signals to more accurately predict the high-frequency band Spectrum fine structure and spectrum envelope, generally select low-band spectral coefficients and low-band spectral envelopes of different frequency bands according to the broadband signal type for prediction. However, it is generally impossible to directly predict the type of the above-mentioned broadband signal at the receiving end, and it can be obtained in two ways, which specifically include: first, when the encoding end does not transmit any other information except l...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication, in particular to a frequency band extension method and device. Background technique [0002] Due to limitations of transmission bandwidth and other conditions, voice signals in a traditional PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network, Public Switched Telephone Network) network are all transmitted in a narrowband form. The narrowband signal greatly limits the quality of human hearing. [0003] In view of the above problems, the prior art provides a simple and effective method for obtaining wideband voice without switching the current narrowband network, which is blind frequency band extension technology. The current blind extension technology is basically processed in the time domain. The specific operations include: firstly perform linear prediction analysis on the narrowband signal to obtain the linear prediction coefficient and residual signal of the narrowband signal, and then convert the narrowband...
