A device and method for quantizing a gain of a fixed contribution of an excitation in a frame, including sub-frames, of a coded sound signal, wherein the gain of the fixed excitation contribution is estimated in a sub-frame using a parameter representative of a classification of the frame. The gain of the fixed excitation contribution is then quantized in the sub-frame using the estimated gain. The device and method is used in jointly quantizing gains of adaptive and fixed contributions of an excitation in a frame of a coded sound signal. For retrieving a quantized gain of a fixed contribution of an excitation in a sub-frame of a frame, the gain of the fixed excitation contribution is estimated using a parameter representative of a classification of the frame, a gain codebook supplies a correction factor in response to a received, gain codebook index, and a multiplier multiplies the estimated gain by the correction factor to provide a quantized gain of the fixed excitation contribution.

A method of performing gain adjustment in an electronic device includes determining a first set of spectral frequency values and determining a second set of spectral frequency values. The first set of spectral frequency values corresponds to a high-band portion of an audio signal received at the electronic device. The second set of spectral frequency values approximates the first set of spectral frequency values in the high band portion of the audio signal. The method includes estimating a spectral distortion corresponding to a difference between the first set of spectral frequency values and the second set of spectral frequency values and adjusting, based on the spectral distortion, a gain value corresponding to at least a portion of the audio signal. The method also includes transmitting an encoded bitstream that includes information corresponding to the adjusted gain value and the second set of spectral frequency values.
