Abstract
The present research can decrease the amount of computation and enhance speech quality by using a global pulse replacement method in a fixed codebook search. The fixed codebook search method in a speech encoder based upon global pulse replacement, includes the steps of: (a) computing absolute values of the pulse-position likelihood-estimator vectors; (b) temporarily obtaining a codebook vector; (c) computing a mathematical equation by replacing a pulse; (d) determining whether a value computed based upon the mathematical equation is increased after pulse replacement; (e) obtaining a new codebook vector by replacing the pulse; and (f) maintaining a previous codebook vector.
