Abstract
A speech encoding method and apparatus for encoding an input speech signal on a block-by-block or frame-by-frame basis wherein short-term prediction residuals are found and then sinusoidal analytic encoding parameters are produced based on those short-term prediction residuals. Perceptually weighted vector quantization is performed for voiced blocks or frames by encoding their sinusoidal frequency or analytic harmonic magnitudes and, in the case of unvoiced blocks or frames, the time waveforms of the unvoiced blocks are encoded.
