Speech coding method and apparatus using mean squared error modifier for selected speech coder parameters using VSELP techniques

摘要

An improved speech coder provides a more natural sounding replication of speech by modifying the mean-squared error criterion for the selected speech coder parameters. Specifically, the modification emphasizes the signal components that the speech coder has difficulty matching, i.e. the high frequencies. This emphasis is constrained to certain limitations to avoid over-emphasizing the speech.
