Abstract

An exemplary decoder comprises a receiver that receives parameters of a speech signal on a frame-by-frame basis, a control logic for decoding parameters and for resynthesizing the speech signal, the control logic including a minimum spacing indicative of a minimum difference required between LSFs of consecutive frames, a frame recovery logic that, when a lost frame detector detects a lost frame, sets the minimum spacing for the lost frame to a first value which is greater than the minimum spacing for the previously received frame, and/or uses pitch lag parameters of a plurality of previously received frames to extrapolate a pitch lag parameter for the lost frame, and/or sets gain parameter of a subframe of the lost frame in a first manner if the lost gain parameter is an adaptive codebook gain parameter and in a second manner if the lost gain parameter is a fixed codebook gain parameter.
