    Abstract: First codebook 61 and second codebook 62 respectively have two subcodebooks, and in respective codebooks, addition sections 66 and 67 obtain respective excitation vectors by adding sub-excitation vectors fetched from respective two subcodebooks. Addition section 68 obtains an excitation sample by adding those excitation vectors. According to the aforementioned constitution, it is possible to store sub-excitation vectors with different characteristics in respective sub-codebooks. Therefore, it is possible to correspond to input signals with various characteristics, and achieve excellent sound qualities at the time of decoding.

    Abstract: A speech encoder comprising an LPC synthesizing means, a gain calculating means and a parameter coding means for performing predictive coding of gains of an adaptive excitation vector and a stochastic excitation vector associated with indexes searched in the gain calculating means is provided. The parameter coding means comprises prediction coefficient adjusting means for adjusting one or more prediction coefficients used in the predictive coding according to one or more past subframe states. The speech encoder automatically adjusts prediction coefficients when the state value in a preceding subframe is an extremely large value or an extremely small value in predictive quantization with less including local abnormal sounds.

    Abstract: A vector quantizer which improves the accuracy of vector quantization in switching over a vector quantization codebook on a first stage depending on the type of feature having the correlation with a quantization target vector. In the vector quantizer, a classifier (101) generates classification information representing a type of narrowband LSP vector having the correlation with wideband LSP (Line Spectral Pairs) out of the plural types. A first codebook (103) selects one sub-codebook corresponding to the classification information as a codebook used for the quantization of the first stage from plural sub-codebooks (CBa1 to CBan) corresponding to each of the types of narrowband LSP vectors. A multiplier (107) multiplies the quantization residual vector of the first stage inputted from an adder (104) by a scaling factor corresponding to the classification information out of plural scaling factors stored in a scaling factor determining section (106) and outputs it to an adder (109) as the quantization target of a second stage.

    Abstract: A speech coder using an orthogonal search and an orthogonal search method for reducing the number of calculation steps for vector quantization processing for ACELP type random codebook. The speech coder comprises an adaptive codebook, that generates an adaptive codevector representing a pitch component, a random codebook that generates a codevector representing a random component, a synthesis filter that generates a synthetic speech signal and a distortion calculator that calculates distortion between an input speech signal and the synthetic speech signal. The speech coder and the orthogonal search method have characteristics in which the accuracy for the random codebook search is improved as compared with a non-orthogonal search and the quality of the synthetic speech is also improved.
