Abstract
Systems and methods are described for encoding quantized vector parameters in a bitstream are described. An exemplary method may include receiving a vector of integers used in a data compression codebook, the sum of the integers equaling a pulse sum. An initial expected magnitude may be determined for a first integer, the initial expected magnitude being based on the pulse sum, a distribution parameter, and a value corresponding to a number of integers in the vector. The actual magnitude of the first integer may be encoded based on the initial expected magnitude of the first integer. The pulse sum may be adjusted using the encoded actual magnitude. Also, the value corresponding to the number of integers in the vector may be reduced by one. Expected magnitudes for each of the remaining integers of the vector may then be calculated recursively.
