Abstract
A speech encoding/decoding apparatus. A speech encoding apparatus has a coding portion for receiving input information related to an uncoded signal representative of an original speech signal, the coding portion including a fixed coding portion for receiving the input information and producing a first coded signal estimate, and an adaptive coding portion for receiving the input information and producing a second coded signal estimate. A controller is connected to the fixed coding portion and the adaptive coding portion for receiving information indicative of speech characteristics of the uncoded signal and generates a control signal; and a code modifier receives the first coded signal estimate from the fixed coding portion and the control signal from the controller and produces a modified signal estimate.
