Vector sum excited linear prediction (VSELP) speech coding at 8 kbps
Ira A. Gerson, Mark A. Jasiuk · International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing · 2002
The vector sum excited linear prediction speech coder is presented. It utilizes a codebook with a structure that allows for a very efficient search procedure. Other advantages of the VSELP codebook structure are discussed, and a detailed description of an 8-kb/s VSELP coder is given. This coder was selected by the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) as the standard for use in North American digital cellular telephone systems. The coder uses two VSELP excitation codebooks, a gain quantizer which is robust to channel errors, and a novel adaptive pre/postfilter arrangement.>
