In the case of complying with H.711, a transmission capacity of 64 kbit / s ⁇ 2 is required per line, and as the number of lines increases, the transmission capacity necessary for voice transmission increases in proportion to the number of lines. Therefore, considering the reduction of transmission capacity while maintaining high sound quality as much as possible, a compression coding technique for further lossless coding of a signal coded by nonlinear PCM is required.

- FIG. 1 is a configuration block diagram illustrating a hardware configuration of the encoding device 1.
- the encoding device 1 includes an input unit 11 to which a keyboard or the like can be connected, an output unit 12 to which a liquid crystal display or the like can be connected, a communication device (for example, a communication cable) that can communicate with the outside of the encoding device 1. ) To which the communication unit 13 can be connected, and a CPU 14 (Central Processing Unit) [may include a cache memory or a register.
- a CPU 14 Central Processing Unit
- RAM 15 and ROM 16 that are memories, external storage device 17 that is a hard disk, and these input unit 11, output unit 12, communication unit 13, CPU 14, RAM 15, ROM 16, and external storage device 17 so that data can be exchanged.
- the encoding device 1 may be provided with a device (drive) that can read and write a storage medium such as a CD-ROM.
- a physical entity having such hardware resources includes a general-purpose computer.
- the external storage device of the encoding device 1 stores a program for encoding and data necessary for processing of the program (not limited to the external storage device, for example, the program is read by a read-only storage device). It may be stored in a certain ROM.) Further, data (for example, compression-encoded signals) obtained by the processing of these programs are appropriately stored in a RAM or an external storage device.
- storage devices that store programs, data, addresses of storage areas, and the like are simply referred to as storage units.
- the signal handled in each embodiment is a signal obtained by encoding an audio signal according to some encoding method.
- this encoding method is an encoding method in which two minimum quantization intervals exist, and different codewords (character signal; code word) are given to each.
- Non-linear PCM is an example.
- ITU-T G Since 711 adopts nonlinear PCM as an encoding method, “encoded signal” means a signal encoded by nonlinear PCM.
- the nonlinear quantization method may be ⁇ -law or A-law.
- the encoding method is assumed to be nonlinear PCM, and the nonlinear quantization method is assumed to be ⁇ -law.
- a program for determining whether or not there are only two types of codewords included in a frame, and first, run-length encoding is performed on a frame including only two types of codewords.
- a first lossless coding program for performing integer coding on a sequence of consecutive numbers of codewords obtained by this run-length coding, and a second coding for coding different from the first coding A program for lossless encoding is stored.
- each program stored in the storage unit and data necessary for processing each program are read into the RAM as necessary, and are interpreted and executed by the CPU. As a result, the CPU realizes a predetermined function (determination unit, first encoding unit, second encoding unit), thereby realizing desired encoding.
- Step Sc0 The buffer unit 30 of the encoding device 1 buffers a signal encoded by nonlinear PCM and outputs a signal encoded by nonlinear PCM in units of frames. That is, the buffer unit 30 outputs a frame made up of a plurality of codewords encoded by nonlinear PCM.
- Step Sc1 The determination unit 100 of the encoding device 1 determines whether or not there are only two types of codewords +0 and ⁇ 0 for each frame of a signal encoded by nonlinear PCM.
- the determination unit 100 determines whether or not only two types of codewords of +0 and ⁇ 0 are included in a frame composed of a plurality of codewords encoded by nonlinear PCM. In other words, the determination unit 100 determines whether or not all codewords constituting the frame are the same and each codeword is +0 or ⁇ 0.
- the determination unit 100 When there are only two types of codewords +0 and ⁇ 0 included in the frame, the determination unit 100 performs control to send the frame to the first encoding unit 110. In other cases, the determination unit 100 transmits the frame to the second code. Control to send to the conversion unit 120 is performed. Note that the determination unit 100 outputs an encoding specific code representing the type of encoding. That is, when the determination unit 100 performs control to be sent to the first encoding unit 110, the determination unit 100 outputs a code indicating that the first encoding is selected and performs control to send to the second encoding unit 120. If it is, a code indicating that the second encoding is selected is output.
- the first encoding unit 110 of the encoding device 1 performs the following lossless encoding on a frame of a signal encoded by nonlinear PCM, and outputs a code obtained by the lossless encoding. Note that this frame includes only two types of codewords, +0 and ⁇ 0.

- Run-length coding is a method of lossless coding.
- the code word “+0” can be adopted as a reference for encoding.
- the sequence of codewords in the frame is +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, ⁇ 0, the number of consecutive times is 5.
- the code word “ ⁇ 0” can be adopted as a reference for encoding. In this case, if the sequence of codewords in the frame is ⁇ 0, ⁇ 0, ⁇ 0, +0, the number of consecutive times is 4.
- the present invention is not limited to this operation, and preferably, the first encoding unit 110 selectively adopts one of the above criteria for each frame based on the ratio of codewords included in the frame.
- Run-length encoding is performed by applying the reference to the frame.
- a codeword having a large number of appearances in a frame is adopted as a reference among two kinds of codewords. That is, when the two types of codewords are “first codeword” and “second codeword”, the “encoding” in the case where the total number of first codewords included in the frame is larger than the total number of second codewords.
- the “standard of” is the first code word, and the “standard of code word” when the total number of second code words is larger than the total number of first code words is the second code word.
- the first encoding unit 110 detects the number of consecutive codewords (consecutive number) in order from the beginning of the frame using the run-length coding standard, and obtains a sequence of the continuous number of times. At this time, if the codeword at the head of the frame is a codeword that has not been adopted as a reference, the first encoding unit 110 performs processing with the number of consecutive times being zero until the reference codeword appears. For example, when the code word “+0” is used as a reference and the sequence of code words at the start of the frame is ⁇ 0, ⁇ 0, ⁇ 0, ⁇ 0, +0, +0, ⁇ 0,. Is a series of 0, 0, 0, 2,.
- the first encoding unit 110 processes the last codeword included in the frame, assuming that the next codeword is a codeword that has not been adopted as a reference. For example, when the code word “+0” is used as a reference and the sequence of code words at the end of the frame is ⁇ 0, +0, +0, the code word next to the last code word “+0” is “ ⁇ Considering it to be 0 ", the number of consecutive times is 2. In addition, when code words that are not adopted as a reference in a frame continue, the number of consecutive code words that are the reference is set to zero.
- the number of consecutive codewords that are a reference is set to 1. For example, when the code word “+0” is adopted as a reference and the code word sequence is..., ⁇ 0, +0, ⁇ 0, ⁇ 0, ⁇ 0,. .., 1, 0, 0,...
- the first encoding unit 110 performs integer encoding on a sequence of the number of consecutive codewords obtained by run-length encoding.
- integer coding examples include Unary coding, Golomb coding, and Rice coding. This integer coding is preferably lossless coding.
- Rice encoding or Golomb encoding which is variable-length encoding, will be described.
- the sequence of codewords included in a certain frame is +0, -0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, -0, +0, +0, +0, +0, -0, +0, +0, +0, +0, -0, +0, +0, +0, +0, -0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0

- a code word of a certain frame encoded by the nonlinear PCM as exemplified above. Will be 0100001000010001000010000000000001000000.
- the code amount of this code word sequence is 40 bits (5 bytes).
- the code amount of the code output from the first encoding unit 110 is at most about 40 bits regardless of the encoding method, compared with the code amount of 320 bits of the codeword obtained by nonlinear PCM. It is fully compressed.
- the sequence of codewords (Rice code) obtained by Rice encoding a sequence of consecutive times is not uniquely determined. Therefore, at the time of decoding, the specific encoding method used at the time of encoding must be known. For this reason, a method of determining a specific encoding method in advance or transmitting a code for specifying the encoding method used by the encoder (encoding device 1) to a decoder (decoding device 2 described later) is considered. It is done. Therefore, the code amount of this code will also be described.
- the code amount of the code for expressing the Rice parameter S is 3 bits. Furthermore, it is sufficient that the code amount of the code for expressing which is the standard of run-length encoding is 1 bit. Further, even when binary coding that distinguishes and expresses two types of codewords of nonlinear PCM by 1 bit is permitted, it is sufficient that the code amount of the code representing the coding method is 2 bits as follows. Note that these codes are output together with the Rice code by the first encoding unit 110.
- Examples of codes representing encoding methods (1) 0: Binary encoding that expresses two types of codewords of non-linear PCM by distinguishing them by 1 bit (2) 10: Run-length code based on codeword “+0” (3) 11: Run-length coding based on the codeword “ ⁇ 0” After all, the Rice coding for the sequence of the number of consecutive times obtained by the run-length coding results in the code amount of the Rice code and the Rice parameter S
- the amount of code for expressing the code the amount of code for expressing that it is a coding that distinguishes and expresses two types of codewords of run length coding and nonlinear PCM by 1 bit, and May require a code amount that is the sum of the code amount for specifying the specific specifications of Rice encoding, but even in such a case, in the above example, at most several tens of bits Just enough, non-linear It will have been sufficiently compressed as compared with the code amount 320bit code words obtained by the CM.
- the total number of consecutive times is v
- the number of samples included in the frame is n
- the Golomb parameters m and c are obtained according to the equations (1) and (2).
- the symbols ⁇ and ⁇ represent the ceiling function. Further, v ⁇ n always holds.
- a sequence of codewords (Golomb code) obtained by Golomb encoding with respect to a sequence of continuous times obtained by run-length encoding is obtained by sequentially expressing the values of continuous times appearing in the sequence of continuous times by Golomb codes.
- This sequence of codewords is a code output from the first encoding unit 110.
- the first encoding unit 110 also outputs a code for performing, and further a code for specifying a specific specification of Golomb encoding.
- FIG. 4 shows the relationship among the total number of consecutive times v, the Golomb parameter m, and the degenerate Golomb parameter m ′ when the number of samples (frame length) in one frame is 160.
- m represents the value of the Golomb parameter corresponding to the sum v of all consecutive times that may appear in the range of the number of samples in one frame (in this example, 1 ⁇ v ⁇ 159).
- the degenerated Golomb parameter m ′ is compressed so that the code amount of the value of the degenerated Golomb parameter m ′ selected in the frame falls within a predetermined code amount at the time of transmission, constraining the Golomb parameter to 16 ways, for example. Value.
- the original Golomb parameter m obtained by Expression (1) Is a compressed Golomb parameter m ′.
- FIG. 4 illustrates non-linear compression in which the compression rate increases as the original Golomb parameter m increases. Specifically, it corresponds to each value of v in a predetermined range. The smallest value among the Golomb parameters m is the degenerate Golomb parameter m ′ corresponding to the predetermined range v.
- FIG. 5 shows values of the total number v of consecutive times and the degenerate Golomb parameters m ′ and c represented by each 4-bit code based on FIG. 4.
- the second encoding unit 120 of the encoding device 1 performs lossless encoding different from the encoding by the first encoding unit 110 on the frame of the signal encoded by nonlinear PCM. Note that this frame is a frame other than a frame including only two types of code words, +0 and ⁇ 0.
- the encoding by the second encoding unit 120 is not particularly limited as long as the condition of encoding different from the encoding by the first encoding unit 110 is satisfied. For example, encoding without encoding (encoding in the broadest sense) is allowed. That is, the second encoding unit 120 may output a signal encoded by nonlinear PCM as it is. This means that the first encoding unit 110 performs lossless compression encoding only for a frame corresponding to a non-speech period in a signal encoded by nonlinear PCM.
- the second encoding unit 120 may perform linear predictive encoding on a frame of a signal encoded by nonlinear PCM.
- a logarithmic companded signal (logarithmic companding code) is converted into a linear PCM code, rather than performing linear predictive coding on a logarithmic companded signal such as the ⁇ -law or A-law. Then, linear predictive coding is performed on the linear PCM code, and a prediction value obtained using the obtained prediction coefficient is converted into a logarithmic companding code. It is known that the compression rate is improved by encoding the residual with the logarithmic companding code (reference document 3). (Reference 3) Ghido, F. & Tabus, I., "Accounting for companding nonlinearities in lossless audio compression", Proc. ICASSP, Vol.1, pp.261-264, 2007.
- the second encoding unit 120 converts a signal (nonlinear PCM code) composed of a codeword encoded by nonlinear PCM into a linear PCM code, performs linear prediction analysis on the linear PCM code, and obtains the result. Even if linear predictive coding is performed in which a prediction value obtained using the obtained prediction coefficient is converted into a nonlinear PCM code and a residual between the original nonlinear PCM code and the nonlinear PCM code of the predicted value is encoded. Good. A functional block diagram in this case is shown in FIG.

- the residual encoding unit 127 encodes the obtained residual and outputs a residual code.
- the coefficient encoding unit 128 encodes and outputs the quantized prediction coefficient.
- the encoding method applied to the residual and the encoding applied to the quantized prediction coefficient are respectively predetermined encoding methods.

- the code obtained by the two-stage coding method that performs integer coding on the sequence of the continuous number of codewords obtained by the run-length coding is the code obtained by one kind of two-stage coding method.
- the code is not limited and may be a code having the minimum code amount among the codes obtained by executing a plurality of types of two-stage encoding.
- the first encoding unit 110 is a code representing an encoding method corresponding to the output code, that is, an encoding method that expresses two types of code words of nonlinear PCM by distinguishing them with one bit or obtained by run length encoding
- a code representing an encoding method for performing integer encoding on a sequence of consecutive codewords is also output.
- FIG. 8 a configuration as shown in FIG. 8 can be adopted.
- the third encoding unit 130 is added, and the function of the third encoding unit 130 is realized by interpreting and executing the program stored in the storage unit by the CPU.
- the determination unit 100 of the encoding device 1 includes only two types of codewords (1) +0 and ⁇ 0 for each frame of a signal encoded by nonlinear PCM, and (2) only one type. (3) Which of the above cases does not apply (step Sc1b in FIG. 9).
- the determination unit 100 When the codeword included in the frame corresponds to (1), the determination unit 100 performs control to send the frame to the first encoding unit 110. When the codeword corresponds to (3), the determination unit 100 performs the second encoding of the frame. Control to send to the unit 120 is performed. When the condition corresponds to (2), control to send the frame to the third encoding unit 130 is performed.
- the third encoding unit 130 of the encoding device 1 performs lossless encoding that outputs a code indicating that the frame includes only one type of codeword (step Sc4 in FIG. 9). For example, if only the code word “+0” is included in the frame, a code indicating that only the code word “+0” is included in the frame is output. However, since it is useless to predefine a code indicating that only the codeword is included for all codewords, the codeword is not applicable to some codewords (for example, “+0” and “ ⁇ 0”). A code indicating that only a code word is included may be defined in advance, and for other code words, a code word may be output together with a code indicating that only one type of code word is included.
- the synthesizing unit 50 multiplexes the code output from the encoding device 1 or the encoding specific code. That is, the synthesizing unit 50 collects the code output from the encoding device 1 and the encoding specific code for each frame, and further outputs a bit stream obtained by concatenating them according to the frame order.

Abstract
Description
(参考文献1)ITU-T Recommendation G.701, "Vocabulary of Digital Transmission and Multiplexing, and Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) Terms," ITU-T, 1993.
現在普及している一般電話に代わってVoIPシステム(Voice over Internet Protocol system)が普及すると、音声伝送のために必要な伝送容量が増大する。例えば、上記非特許文献1に規定されるITU-T G.711に準拠する場合であれば、1回線につき64kbit/s×2の伝送容量が必要であり、回線数が増えると、音声伝送のために必要な伝送容量も回線数に比例して増大する。従って、高音質をできるだけ維持しつつ伝送容量の削減を考えると、非線形PCMで符号化された信号を更にロスレス符号化する圧縮符号化技術が必要である。
図1は、符号化装置1のハードウェア構成を例示した構成ブロック図である。図1に例示するように、符号化装置1は、キーボードなどが接続可能な入力部11、液晶ディスプレイなどが接続可能な出力部12、符号化装置1外部に通信可能な通信装置(例えば通信ケーブル)が接続可能な通信部13、CPU14(Central Processing Unit)〔キャッシュメモリやレジスタなどを備えていてもよい。〕、メモリであるRAM15やROM16、ハードディスクである外部記憶装置17並びにこれらの入力部11、出力部12、通信部13、CPU14、RAM15、ROM16、外部記憶装置17間のデータのやり取りが可能なように接続するバス18を有している。また必要に応じて、符号化装置1に、CD-ROMなどの記憶媒体を読み書きできる装置(ドライブ)などを設けるとしてもよい。このようなハードウェア資源を備えた物理的実体としては、汎用コンピュータなどがある。
符号化装置1では、記憶部に記憶された各プログラムとこの各プログラムの処理に必要なデータが必要に応じてRAMに読み込まれて、CPUで解釈実行・処理される。この結果、CPUが所定の機能(判定部、第1符号化部、第2符号化部)を実現することで所望の符号化が実現される。
次に、図2から図9を参照して、符号化装置1における符号化処理の流れを叙述的に説明する。
[ステップSc0]
符号化装置1のバッファ部30は、非線形PCMで符号化された信号をバッファして、非線形PCMで符号化された信号をフレーム単位で出力する。すなわち、バッファ部30は、非線形PCMで符号化された複数個の符号語からなるフレームを出力する。
[ステップSc1]
符号化装置1の判定部100は、非線形PCMで符号化された信号のフレーム毎に、フレームに含まれる符号語が+0、-0の二種類のみであるか否かを判定する。すなわち、判定部100は、非線形PCMで符号化された複数個の符号語によって構成されるフレームに、+0、-0の二種類の符号語のみが含まれるか否かを判定する。言い換えると、判定部100は、フレームを構成するすべての符号語が同一ではなく、かつ、各符号語がそれぞれ+0又は-0であるか否かを判定する。
[ステップSc2]
符号化装置1の第1符号化部110は、非線形PCMで符号化された信号のフレームに対して次のようなロスレス符号化を行い、このロスレス符号化で得られた符号を出力する。なお、このフレームには、+0、-0の二種類の符号語のみが含まれる。
S=1 : 11 0010 0010 011 0010 00000010 00010 (30bit)
S=2 : 101 0100 0100 111 0100 000100 0110 (28bit)
S=3 : 1001 1100 1100 1011 1100 01100 1110 (29bit)
この例では、連続回数の値に対してRice符号化の際に求められる商、余りに対応した符号を商、余りの順で連結して符号語とした。従って、この例に限らず、余り、商の順で連結して符号語を得ることもできる。この場合、連続回数の系列をRice符号化して得られる符号語の並び(Rice符号)は下記のとおりである。
S=1 : 11 0001 0001 101 0001 00000001 00001 (30bit)
S=2 : 011 0001 0001 111 0001 000001 1001 (28bit)
S=3 : 0011 1001 1001 0111 1001 10001 1101 (29bit)
また、商の符号はUnary符号化で得られるから、商を表す符号の0と1を反転させてもよい。この場合、連続回数の系列をRice符号化して得られる符号語の並び(Rice符号)は下記のとおりである。
S=1 : 10 0110 0110 110 0110 01111110 01110 (30bit)
S=2 : 010 0010 0010 110 0010 001110 1010 (28bit)
S=3 : 0010 1000 1000 0110 1000 10010 1100 (29bit)
これらの例の他、例えば上記非特許文献2に開示されるRice符号化に従って連続回数の系列のRice符号を得てもよい。
符号化方法を表す符号の例
(1)0:非線形PCMの二種類の符号語を1ビットで区別して表現する二進符号化
(2)10:符号語“+0”を基準としたランレングス符号化
(3)11:符号語“-0”を基準としたランレングス符号化
結局、ランレングス符号化で得られた連続回数の系列に対するRice符号化によって、Rice符号の符号量と、RiceパラメータSを表現するための符号の符号量と、ランレングス符号化の基準や非線形PCMの二種類の符号語を1ビットで区別して表現する符号化であることを表現するための符号の符号量、さらには、Rice符号化の具体的な仕様を特定するための符号の符号量などを合計した符号量が必要となる場合があるが、このような場合であっても上記の例では高々数十ビット程度あれば十分であり、非線形PCMで得られた符号語の符号量320bitに比べて十分に圧縮されたことになる。

Golomb符号化の場合、Golombパラメータmもデコーダ(後述する復号装置2)に伝える必要がある。式(1)から明らかなように、連続回数の総和vが大きくなるとGolombパラメータmの値も大きくなるため、mを表すバイナリ符号の符号量も大きくなってしまう。そこで、Golombパラメータmの縮退化を考える。このことを図4を参照して説明する。
符号化装置1の第2符号化部120は、非線形PCMで符号化された信号のフレームに対して第1符号化部110による符号化と異なるロスレス符号化を行う。なお、このフレームは、+0、-0の二種類のみの符号語を含むフレーム以外のフレームである。
(参考文献3)Ghido, F. & Tabus, I., "Accounting for companding nonlinearities in lossless audio compression", Proc. ICASSP, Vol.1, pp.261-264, 2007.
そこで、第2符号化部120は、非線形PCMで符号化された符号語からなる信号(非線形PCM符号)を線形PCM符号に変換してからこの線形PCM符号に対して線形予測分析を行い、得られた予測係数を使って求められた予測値を非線形PCM符号に変換して、元の非線形PCM符号と予測値の非線形PCM符号との残差を符号化するという線形予測符号化を行ってもよい。この場合の機能ブロック図を図6に示す。
復号装置2のハードウェア構成は、図1に例示する符号化装置1のハードウェア構成と同じであるからその説明を略する。
次に、図10から図12を参照して、復号装置2における復号処理の流れを叙述的に説明する。
[ステップSd1]
まず、復号装置2の判定部200は、入力されたフレームに含まれる符号が、二つの最小量子化インターバルに与えられた二種類の符号語“+0”、“-0”のみが含まれるフレームに対してロスレス符号化が適用されて得られた符号であるか否かを判定する。この判定は、入力された符号化特定符号によって判別される。
[ステップSd2]
復号装置2の第1復号部210は、判定部200から送られたフレームについて、第1符号化であるロスレス符号化で得られた符号の復号を行い、この復号処理で得られた非線形PCM符号を出力する。
[ステップSd3]
復号装置2の第2復号部220は、第2符号化であるロスレス符号化で得られた符号の復号を行い、この復号処理で得られた非線形PCM符号を出力する。復号処理の詳細は、第2符号化であるロスレス符号化の種類によって決まる。
[ステップSd4]
復号装置2の結合部80は、第1復号部210が出力した非線形PCM符号と第2復号部220が出力した非線形PCM符号をフレームの順番に従って連結して復号信号を出力する。この復号信号は、符号化装置1のバッファ部30の入力である非線形PCMで符号化された信号に対応する。
