Abstract

A first vector quantizer generates output codevectors corresponding in number to a number determined by a predetermined number of bits through linear coupling of integer coefficients of a predetermined number of base vectors stored in a base vector memory. A second vector quantizer determines coefficients of the base vectors according to at least one of output indexes of the output codevectors.
