Abstract

A speech encoder uses a soft interpolation decision for spectral parameters. For each frame, the encoder first calculates the residual energy for interpolated spectral parameters, and then calculates the residual energy for non-interpolated spectral parameters. The encoder then compares these residual energy calculations. If the encoder determines that the interpolated spectral parameters yields the lowest residual energy, it indicates to a far-end decoder to use the interpolated values for the current frame. Otherwise, it indicates to the far-end decoder to use the non-interpolated values for the current frame. The encoder signals the far-end decoder as to which spectral parameters (interpolated or non-interpolated values) to use by encoding and transmitting a special signalling bit.
