FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to coding/decoding of a digital signal, consisting of successive blocks of samples. Coding includes application of a weighting window to two blocks of M successive samples. In particular, this weighting window is asymmetric and comprises four distinct portions extending successively over two aforesaid blocks, with a first portion, increasing over a first interval, a second portion, constant at a weighting value over a second interval, a third portion, decreasing over a third interval, and a fourth portion, constant at a weighting value over a fourth interval.
EFFECT: technical result is improved quality of encoded sound.
