A device for signal processing includes a receiver and a high-band excitation signal generator. The receiver is configured to receive a parameter associated with a bandwidth-extended audio stream. The high-band excitation signal generator is configured to determine a value of the parameter. The high-band excitation signal generator is also configured to select, based on the value of the parameter, one of target gain information associated with the bandwidth-extended audio stream or filter information associated with the bandwidth-extended audio stream. The high-band excitation signal generator is further configured to generate a high-band excitation signal based on the one of the target gain information or the filter information.
