Abstract
Linear predictive coding (LPC) filter parameters are determined for use in encoding a voice signal. Samples of a speech signal using a z-transform function are pre-emphasized. The pre-emphasized samples are analyzed to produce LPC reflection coefficients. The LPC reflection coefficients are quantized by a voiced quantizer and by an unvoiced quantizer producing sets of quantized reflection coefficients. Each set is converted into respective spectral coefficients. The set which produces a smaller lag-spectral distance is determined. The determined set is selected to encode the voice signal.
