High quality audio coding using analysis-by-synthesis technique
A modified regular-pulse excitation (RPE) linear predictive coding (LPC) codec is used to encode audio signals of 15 kHz bandwidth. With appropriate perceptual masking and carefully selected excitation structure, a fixed-pulse excitation (FPE) LPC codec is able to provide high-fidelity audio output. The quantization of both the LPC parameters and the excitation pulse sequence is examined. It is found that the LPC parameters can be quantized efficiently by adaptive differential PCM, while the excitation pulse sequences need more bits to quantize the amplitudes compared to narrowband speech encoding. Informal listening tests show that high-fidelity audio can be achieved at bit rates less than 100 kb/s.

Abstract

A modified regular-pulse excitation (RPE) linear predictive coding (LPC) codec is used to encode audio signals of 15 kHz bandwidth. With appropriate perceptual masking and carefully selected excitation structure, a fixed-pulse excitation (FPE) LPC codec is able to provide high-fidelity audio output. The quantization of both the LPC parameters and the excitation pulse sequence is examined. It is found that the LPC parameters can be quantized efficiently by adaptive differential PCM, while the excitation pulse sequences need more bits to quantize the amplitudes compared to narrowband speech encoding. Informal listening tests show that high-fidelity audio can be achieved at bit rates less than 100 kb/s.
