Audio decoding device
An input signal includes a channel-based audio signal and an object-based audio signal, and an audio encoding device includes an audio scene analysis unit configured to determine an audio scene from the input signal and detect audio scene information; a channel-based encoder that encodes the channel-based audio signal output from the audio scene analysis unit; an object-based encoder that encodes the object-based audio signal output from the audio scene analysis unit; and an audio scene encoding unit configured to encode the audio scene information.
1. An audio decoding device that decodes an encoded signal including a channel-based encoded signal, an object-based encoded signal, and an audio scene encoded signal,
the audio decoding device comprising:
a demultiplexing unit configured to demultiplex the encoded signal into the channel-based encoded signal, the object-based encoded signal, and the audio scene encoded signal;
an audio scene decoding unit configured to decode the audio scene encoded signal and output audio scene information;
a channel-based decoder that decodes the channel-based encoded signal;
an object-based decoder that decodes the object-based encoded signal by using the audio scene information; and
an audio scene synthesis unit configured to combine an output signal of the channel-based decoder and an output signal of the object-based decoder based on speaker arrangement information provided separately from the audio scene information, and reproduce a combined audio scene synthesis signal,
wherein the audio scene information is importance information of audio objects, and the audio decoding device skips an audio object included in the audio objects that has a low importance when a computational resource necessary for decoding is insufficient.
