FAST CODE-VECTOR SEARCHING

摘要

Methods and apparatus for quickly selecting an optimal excitation waveform from a codebook are presented herein. In encoding schemes that use forward and backward pitch enhancement, storage and processor load is reduced by approximating a two-dimensional autocorrelation matrix with a one-dimensional autocorrelation vector. The approximation is possible when a cross-correlation element is configured to determine the autocorrelation matrix of an impulse response and a pulse energy determination element is configured to determine the energy of a pulse code vector that incorporates secondary pulse positions.
