Problems solved by technology

[0004] It can be seen from the above that in the existing audio encoder, the psychoacoustic model needs to calculate the noise masking and tone masking characteristics to generate the quantization control parameters for controlling the quantization step size, which will lead to a large amount of calculation for the psychoacoustic model. Increases the workload of the audio encoder

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a method and a device for generating quantification control parameter and an audio coding device. The method concretely comprises: firstly, calculating the energy of a frequency domain signal; according to the energy of the frequency domain signal, calculating the total masking value of at least one frequency point of the frequency domain signal; then, according to the obtained total masking value of the frequency, obtaining a quantification control parameter used for controlling quantization steps. Thus, the invention only needs to calculate the masking effect of one frequency point instead of calculating frequency domain signal noise and pitch masking characteristics, so that the invention reduces the calculated amount and the complexity of a psychoacoustic model under the condition of ensuring tone quality and lowers the working burden of the audio coding device.
