摘要
A method and device eradicate the occasional instability inherent in analysis-by-synthesis speech/audio codecs and caused in particular by channel errors during transmission of highly periodic signals such as high-frequency sine waves. Analysis-by-synthesis techniques involve production, in response to the speech/audio signal and at regular time intervals called frames, of (a) a set of spectral parameters for use in driving a synthesis filter in view of synthesizing the speech/audio signal, and (b) a pitch gain for constructing a past- excitation-signal component supplied to the synthesis filter. In accordance with the instability eradication method, the first step consists of detecting a set of conditions including (i) a resonance condition assessed from the spectral parameters, (ii) a duration condition detected when the resonance condition has prevailed for at least the M most recent frames, M being an integer greater than 1, and (iii) a gain condition which evidences consistently-high values of the pitch gain in the N most recent frames, N being an integer greater than 1. To eradicate the occasional instability, the pitch gain is reduced to a value lower than a given threshold whenever these three conditions are detected.
