ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a multi-mode CELP encoding and decoding method and device for digitized speech signals providing improvements over prior art codecs and coding methods by selectively utilizes backward prediction for the short-term predictor parameters and fixed codebook gain of a speech signal. In order to achieve these improvements, the present invention provides a coding method comprising the steps of classifying a segment of the digitized speech signal as one of a plurality of predetermined modes, determining a set of unquantized line spectral frequencies to represent the short term predictor parameters for that segment, and quantizing the determined set of unquantized line spectral frequencies using a mode-specific combination of scalar quantization and vector quantization, which utilizes backward prediction for modes with voiced speech signals. Furthermore, backward prediction is selectively applied to the fixed codebook gain in the modes that are free of transients so that it may be used in the fixed codebook search and fixed codebook gain quantization in those modes.
