    Abstract: In a speech encoder/decoder (200/300) a pitch delay contour endpoint modifier (208) is employed to shift the endpoints of a pitch delay interpolation curve up or down. Particularly, the endpoints of the pitch delay interpolation curve are shifted based on a variation and/or a standard deviation in pitch delay.

    Abstract: During operation of an encoder, a signal vector (x) is received. A first multi-precision operand (?'k ) will be generated based on the signal vector to be encoded. A mantissa operand and an exponent operand are generated. Both the mantissa operand and the exponent operand are representative of a second multi-precision operand that is based on the signal vector to be encoded. A portion of ?'k is selected to be modified based on the exponent operand. A part of ?'k is modified based on the mantissa operand to produce a modified multi-precision operand (?'k+1 ). Finally, a multi-precision codeword is generated for use in a corresponding decoder.

    Abstract: The invention utilizes low complexity estimates of complex functions to perform combinatorial coding of signal vectors. The invention disregards the accuracy of such functions as long as certain sufficient properties are maintained. The invention in turn may reduce computational complexity of certain coding and decoding operations by two orders of magnitude or more for a given signal vector input.

    Abstract: A noise suppression system implemented in communication system provides an improved update decision during instances of sudden increase in background noise level. The noise suppression system, inter alia, generates an update by continually monitoring the deviation of spectral energy and forcing an update based on a predetermined threshold criterion. The spectral energy deviation is determined by utilizing an element which has the past values of the power spectral components exponentially weighted. The exponential weighting is a function of the current input energy, which means the higher the input signal energy the longer the exponential window. Conversely, the lower the signal energy the shorter the exponential window. The noise suppression system also inhibits a forced update during periods of continuous, non-stationary input signals (such as "music-on-hold").

    Abstract: A mobile station (106) in a code division multiple access (CDMA) communicati on system (100) implements scanning of pilot channels on a different frequency by reserving a periodic frame on the forward channel to allow the mobile statio n (106) to change frequencies and scan for other pilot channels. To preserve some aspects of voice quality, both the base station (102) and mobile statio n (106) voice encode speech at a maximum of half rate and transmit the information as secondary traffic prior to the frame where the mobile station (106) scans the alternate frequency. To maximize the trade-off between voice quality and frequency of the scan, the base station (102) indicates to the mobile station (106) the period between other frequency scans via messaging. To ensure compatibility, this method can be negotiated via known service configuration negotiation techniques.
