Abstract
A code book is a set of code vectors to be selected when linear predictive parameters are vector-quantized as for an input audio which is divided into frames, each of which is further divided into sub frames. A code book designing method is provided with: a calculating processes of calculating the linear predictive parameters of the input audio for the sub frames respectively; a quantizing process of calculating a plurality of quantization candidates which are candidates for the code vectors with respect to the linear predictive parameters of the input audio as for the sub frames positioned at a predetermined interval set in advance; an interpolating process of calculating interpolation values for the linear predictive parameters on the basis of the calculated quantization candidates as for the sub frames other than the sub frames positioned at the predetermined interval; and a determining process of determining the code vectors of the code book by selecting the code vectors from among the calculated quantization candidates on the basis of the calculated quantization candidates, the calculated interpolation values and the calculated linear predictive parameters, within a range of continuous sub frames in a predetermined number set in advance.
