Abstract

Decoder for an audio signal coded by a coder including a long-term prediction filter wherein the decoder comprises: a block (211) for detecting transmission frame losses; a module (222) for calculating values of an error indication function representative of the cumulative adaptive excitation error during decoding following said transmission frame loss, an arbitrary value being assigned to said adaptive excitation gain for the lost frame; a module (213) for calculating an error indication parameter from said values of the error indication function; a comparator (214) for comparing said error indication parameter to at least one given threshold; and a discriminator (215) adapted to determine as a function of the results supplied by the comparator (214) a value of at least one adaptive excitation gain to be used by the decoder.
