A fast algebraic codebook search method for DSVD applications

Abstract

This paper proposes a fast algebraic codebook search for DSVD applications. In this method, the codebook search is simplified by reducing the number of possible position combinations using a mean-based track threshold multiplied by heuristically determined optimum threshold factor. And, to guarantee a complexity requirement of DSVD, the maximum number of searching position combinations is limited to 320. The proposed method reduced computational complexity considerably, compared with G.729 with a slight degradation of SNR. Particularly, it shows better speech quality with lower complexity than G.729A.
