摘要
Trellis coded vector quantization (TCVQ) and code-excited linear prediction (CELP) coding are combined to form an efficient low-bit rate speech coding system. The resulting system uses a trellis search to select the synthesis filter excitation sequence, and is referred to as trellis excitation coding (TEC). Simulations are performed for encoding rates of 6.4 and 8 kbps. Informal listening tests indicate that the 8 kbps TEC system has quality roughly between that of 6-bit and 7-bit mu-law PCM with mu = 255. The 6.4 kbps TEC system provides speech quality between 5-bit and 6-bit mu-law PCM. A subjective comparison with vector sum excited linear prediction (VSELP) indicates that the 8 kbps TEC and the VSELP reconstructed speech is about equally preferable.
