Abstract
An ACELP speech coding method according to ITU-T Recommendation G.729. When coding a random component vector, each of random component vector forming together the random codebook is formed of three or less pulses having a unit amplitude for each 6f a pair of subframes which form together a frame. The positions of the pulses are determined from a plurality of predetermined positions which a pulse can assume in a subframe so that distortion is minimized. The method allows speech coding at a lower bit rate.
