Abstract

A speech coding system is provided where input speech is coded by finding via an evaluation computation a code vector giving a minimum error between reproduced signals obtained by linear prediction analysis filter processing, simulating speech path characteristics, on code vectors successively read out from a noise codebook storing a plurality of noise trains as code vectors and an input speech signal and by using a code specifying the code vector. In the speech coding system, the noise codebook includes a delta vector codebook which stores an initial vector and a plurality of delta vectors having difference vectors between adjoining code vectors. In addition, provision is made in the computing unit for the evaluation computation of a cyclic adding unit for cumulatively adding the delta vectors to virtually reproduce the code vectors.
