The application of algebraic code excited linear prediction (ACELP) coding to wideband speech is presented. An algebraic codebook with a 20 bit address can be used without any storage requirements and, more importantly, with a very efficient search procedure which allows for real-time implementation. The authors describe an efficient procedure for searching such a large codebook deploying a focused search strategy, where less than 0.1% of the codebook is searched with performance very close to that of a full search. High-quality speech at a bit rate of 13 kbps was obtained.>
