Abstract
An excitation vector of the previous frame stored in an adaptive codebook is cut out with a selected pitch period. The excitation vector thus cut out is repeated until one frame is formed, by which a periodic component codevector is generated. An optimum pitch period is searched for so that distortion of a reconstructed speech obtained by exciting a linear predictive synthesis filter with the periodic component codevector is minimized. Thereafter, a random codevector selected from a random codebook is cut out with the optimum pitch period and is repeated until one frame is formed, by which a repetitious random codevector is generated. The random codebook is searched for a random codevector which minimizes the distortion of the reconstructed speech which is provided by exciting the synthesis filter with the repetitious random codevector.
