Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of efficient transmission of the LSF parameters in speech coding using vector quantization (VQ). By performing a comparison of several memory VQ methods on the same database, we investigate what gains can be achieved by exploiting interframe correlation. The memory VQ methods studied are finite-state VQ and linear predictive VQ. By combining the memory VQ with a fixed memoryless VQ, called the safety-net, further improvements in performance can be obtained. It is found that memory VQ can improve the performance with 3-5 bits compared to memoryless VQ for error-free transmission. The best method in this study is a safety-net extended predictive VQ. For noisy channels, most memory methods perform worse than memoryless VQ, but the safety-net predictive VQ outperforms memoryless VQ for all tested channel error rates, with 4 bits less.
