AUDIO ENHANCEMENT IN CODED DOMAIN

Method and apparatus for enhancing a coded audio signal comprising indices which represent audio signal parameters which comprise at least a first parameter representing a first characteristic of speech are disclosed. A current first parameter value is determined from an index corresponding to at least the first parameter. The current first parameter value is adjusted in order to achieve an enhanced first characteristic, thereby obtaining an enhanced first parameter value. A new index value is determined from a table relating index values to at least first parameter values, such that a new first parameter value corresponding to the new index value substantially matches the enhanced first parameter value.
