    Abstract: A speech coder (400) for coding an information signal varies the codebook configuration based on parameters inherent in the information signal. The speech coder (400) requires no additional overhead for sending of mode parameters while allowing subframe resolution. The configurations vary not only for voicing level, but also for pitch period since different physiological traits yield different codebook configurations. A dispersion matrix (406) within the speech coder (400) facilitates a codebook search which is performed on vectors whose length can be less than a subframe length. Additionally, use of the dispersion matrix (406) allows the addition of random events for very slightly voiced speech which incurs little computational overhead but produces a rich excitation.

    Abstract: Bits are allocated to short-term repetition information for unvoiced input signals. Stated differently, more bits are allocated for pitch information during unvoiced input speech than in the prior art. The improved method and apparatus in an encoder (300) and decoder (700) result in improved consistency of amplitude pulses compared to prior art methods which indicates improved stability due to increased search resolution. Also, the improved method and apparatus result in higher energy compared to prior art methods which indicates that the synthesized waveform matches the target waveform more closely, resulting in a higher fixed codebook (FCB) gain.
