Abstract (en)

[origin: US2008126081A1] A method for the artificial extension of the bandwidth of speech signals involves: a) Provision of a wideband input speech signal (s<SUB>wb</SUB><SUP>i</SUP>(k)); b) Determination of the signal components (s<SUB>eb</SUB>(k)) of the wideband input speech signal (s<SUB>wb</SUB><SUP>i</SUP>(k)) required for the bandwidth extension from an extension band from the wideband input speech signal (s<SUB>wb</SUB><SUP>i</SUP>(k)); c) Determination of the temporal envelopes of the signal components (s<SUB>eb</SUB>(k)) determined for the bandwidth extension; d) Determination of the spectral envelopes of the signal components (s<SUB>eb</SUB>(k)) determined for bandwidth extension; e) Encoding of the information for the temporal envelopes and the spectral envelopes, and provision of the encoded information by carrying out the extension of the bandwidth; f) Decoding of the encoded information and generation of the temporal envelopes and the spectral envelopes from the encoded information for the production of a bandwidth-extended output speech signal (s<SUB>wb</SUB><SUP>o</SUP>(k)).
