SPEECH CODING

A method, system and program for encoding and decoding speech according to a source-filter model whereby speech is modeled to comprise a source signal filtered by a time-varying filter.

Summary:A method, system and program for encoding and decoding speech according to a source-filter model whereby speech is modeled to comprise a source signal filtered by a time-varying filter. The method comprises: receiving a speech signal; and from the speech signal, deriving a spectral envelope signal representing the modeled filter and a remaining signal representing the modeled source. At intervals during the encoding, the method further comprises determining a period between portions of the remaining signal having a degree of repetition and determining a correlation between said portions based on that period, thus producing a respective vector of the correlation for each interval. Once every number of said intervals, the method further comprises selecting a codebook from a plurality of codebooks for quantizing the vectors, quantizing the vectors of that number of intervals according to the selected codebook, and transmitting the quantized vectors along with an indication of the selected codebook.
