Modification of fixed codebook search in G.729 Annex E audio coding

摘要

ITU Recommendation G.729 Annex E teaches in the implementation of a fixed codebook search to determine the selected sample combination providing the minimal difference between the original input speech and the reconstructed speech after implementation of the codec. A large number of sample sets are processed and the difference between the original input signal and the reconstructed signal for each set is determined and stored in a register. Under certain conditions, the register can overflow resulting in invalid difference values. When such a condition occurs, the fixed codebook search cannot determine the sample combination providing the minimal mean square error between the weighted input speech and the weighted reconstructed speech. An initialization vector for the codvec vector is used to provide valid data which conforms to the G.729 Annex E specifications and minimizes changes to the G.729 source code while providing robust quality signal processing in the event of register overflow condition.
