System for speech coding and an apparatus for the same

Abstract From the Canadian patent

A CELP type of speech signal coding system wherein, a code vector obtained by applying linear prediction to a vector of a residual speech signal of white noise stored in a code book and a pitch prediction vector obtained by applying linear prediction to a residual signal of a preceding frame given a delay corresponding to a pitch frequency are added, use is made of an impulse vector obtained by applying linear prediction to a residual signal vector of impulses having a predetermined relationship with the vectors of the white noise code book, variable gains are given to at least the above code vector and impulse vector, a reproduced signal is produced, and this reproduced signal is used for …
