Abstract

A vector quantizing apparatus includes a first search section for obtaining an approximate vector X1 which is approximated to a desired vector R, a residual vector calculator for calculating a residual vector Rv from the desired vector R and the approximate vector X1, a weighting section for obtaining weighted vectors X2 to XN of code vectors x2 to xN, and a second search section for calculating an estimation value which is the magnitude of a projection vector of the residual vector Rv with respect to the vector space formed by the approximate vector X1 and the weighted vectors X2 to XN, and searching a code vector which maximizes this estimation value.
