Encoding of LPC spectral parameters using switched-adaptive interframe vector prediction (speech coding)
Yong Ma, Grant A. Davidson, A. Gersho · 2003
An efficient, low-complexity method called switched-adaptive interframe vector prediction (SIVP) has been developed for linear predictive coding (LPC) of spectral parameters in the development of low-bit-rate speech coding systems. SIVP utilizes vector linear prediction to exploit the high frame-to-frame redundancy present in the successive frames of LPC parameters. When SIVP is combined with scalar quantization, it has been found that the LPC parameter bit rate required to achieve high-quality synthetic speech is only 1300 b/s. With vector quantization, the bit-rate can be reduced even further (to 1000 b/s) without introducing any perceivable quantization noise in the reconstructed speech.>
