Abstract: An echo canceller device includes a band adjuster including a filter for performing band adjustment by applying a gain to a signal in a specific frequency band of an input signal, an adaptive filter for inputting a speech reception signal, updating a filter coefficient, and generating a pseudo echo signal using the updated filter coefficient, a band corrector including a filter for correcting a frequency characteristic of a signal obtained by subtracting the pseudo echo signal from an input signal, to a frequency characteristic of the input signal prior to the band adjustment, and a residual echo suppressor for suppressing an echo component that remains in a signal, by a suppression amount, and the residual echo suppressor sets the suppression amount for a signal in a specific frequency band that has been subjected to the band adjustment.

Abstract: An output information generator generates abstract output information unrelated to the types of outputters according to information from an input unit. Semantic interpreters of the outputters generate pieces of embodied output information from the abstract output information on the basis of monitor results from status monitors which monitor the operating statuses of the corresponding outputters. Processing performers perform processes corresponding to the pieces of embodied output information.

Abstract: A high quality speech is reproduced with a small data amount in speech coding and decoding for performing compression coding and decoding of a speech signal to a digital signal. In speech coding method according to a code-excited linear prediction (CELP) speech coding, a noise level of a speech in a concerning coding period is evaluated by using a code or coding result of at least one of spectrum information, power information, and pitch information, and various excitation codebooks are used based on an evaluation result.

Abstract: A mobile wireless communication control device includes a moving object information holder that stores a communication state of each moving object which moves in a plurality of wireless zones and information showing a wireless zone to which the moving object belongs, and a call admission determinator that refers to the information held by the moving object information holder, and determines whether a moving object which is going to start communications can start the communications on the basis of the number of calls of moving objects in communication in a first wireless zone to which the moving object which is going to start the communications belongs, and the number of calls of moving objects in communication in a second wireless zone adjacent to the first wireless zone.

Abstract: A sound source generating unit 101 generates from a narrowband audio signal not passing through noise suppression a sound source signal including a fine structure of a band to be restored. On the other hand, a noise suppressing unit 102 performs noise suppression of the narrowband audio signal and a spectral envelope estimating unit 103 estimates an spectral envelope of the band to be restored. A signal synthesizing unit 104 generates a pseudo-audio signal by combining the sound source signal and the spectral envelope, and the band-pass filter unit 105 passes the pseudo-audio signal of the band to be restored, and the signal addition unit 106 generates a broadband audio restoration signal by adding the pseudo-audio signal of the band to be restored to the narrowband audio signal.
