ABSTRACT:
A method for enhancing speech prediction coefficient signals, including: a) receiving a set of prediction coefficient signals; b) calculating a set of amplitude spectrum coefficient signals based on the prediction coefficient signals; c) calculating a set of enhancement coefficient signals based on the amplitude spectrum coefficient signals; d) calculating a set of enhanced autocorrelation coefficient signals based on the enhancement coefficient signals; e) converting at least some of the enhanced autocorrelation coefficient signals into reflection coefficient signals; f) testing the range of values of the reflection coefficient signals; and g) converting at least some of the tested reflection coefficient signals into prediction coefficient signals.
