Speech coder can be implemented according to sound source-filter model, and described speech coder becomes one group of parameter of describing wave filter with the speech signal coding of input.For instance, the spectrum envelope of voice signal is characterized by the resonance of expression sound channel and the some peak values that are called resonance peak.Fig. 7 a shows an example of described spectrum envelope.Most of speech coders this rough spectrum structure at least are encoded into one group of parameter, for example filter coefficient.
Fig. 1 a shows the block diagram according to the speech coder E100 of embodiment.So shown in the example, analysis module can be embodied as linear predictive coding (linear prediction coding, LPC) analysis module 210, and its spectrum envelope with voice signal S1 is encoded into one group of linear prediction (LP) coefficient (for example, the coefficient 1/A (z) of all-pole filter).Analysis module is processed into input signal a series of non-overlapping frames usually, wherein calculates one group of new coefficient at each frame.Frame period is the possibility local during this period stable cycle of wanted signal normally; A common example is 20 milliseconds (being equivalent to following 160 samples of sampling rate of 8kHz).An example of low-frequency band lpc analysis module is configured to calculate one group of ten LP filter coefficient, so that characterize the resonance peak structure of each 20 milliseconds of frame of low-frequency band voice signal S20, and an example of high frequency band lpc analysis module is configured to calculate hexad (perhaps, eight) the LP filter coefficient, so that characterize the resonance peak structure of each 20 milliseconds of frame of high frequency band voice signal S30.Also might implement analysis module input signal is processed into a series of overlapping frame.
Analysis module can be configured to directly analyze the sample of each frame, or can at first be weighted sample according to window function (for example, Hamming window (Hamming window)).Analyze also and can go up execution at window (for example 30 milliseconds of windows) greater than described frame.This window can be symmetrical (for example, 5-20-5 makes it comprise and is right after before 20 milliseconds of frames and afterwards 5 milliseconds), or asymmetric (for example, 10-20 makes it comprise last 10 milliseconds of previous frame).The lpc analysis module is configured to use Levinson-Durbin recurrence or Leroux-Gueguen algorithm to calculate the LP filter coefficient usually.In another was implemented, analysis module can be configured to calculate one group of cepstrum coefficient (cepstralcoefficient) at each frame, rather than one group of LP filter coefficient.
By filter parameter is quantized, can significantly reduce the output speed of speech coder, and have less relatively influence reproducing quality.Coefficient of linear prediction wave filter is difficult to be quantized effectively, and be mapped to another expression by speech coder usually, for example line spectrum pair (line spectral pair, LSP) or line spectral frequencies (line spectral frequency, LSF), for quantizing and/or entropy coding.Speech coder E100 shown in Fig. 1 a comprises the LP filter coefficient to LSF transducer 220, and it is configured to the LP groups of filter coefficients is transformed into the corresponding vector of LSF.Other of LP filter coefficient represents to comprise partial autocorrelation coefficient (parcor coefficient) one to one; Log area ratio rate value (log-area-ratiovalue); Adpedance spectrum to (immittance spectral pair, ISP); And adpedance spectral frequency (ISF, immittance spectralfrequencies), it can be used for GSM (global system for mobile communications) AMR-WB (AMR-WB) codec.Usually, one group of LP filter coefficient is reversible with conversion between one group of corresponding LSF, but embodiment also comprise conversion can't be in the enforcement that does not have speech coder reversible under the situation of error.
Speech coder comprises quantizer usually, and it is configured to arrowband LSF group (or other coefficient is represented) is quantized, and exports the result of this quantification, as filter parameter.Usually use vector quantizer to carry out quantification, described vector quantizer is encoded into input vector the index of the corresponding vectorial clauses and subclauses in Compass or the code book.Described quantizer also can be configured to carry out and quantize through class vector.For instance, described quantizer can be configured to based on selecting one in the group code basis in information encoded in the same frame (for example, in the low-frequency band channel and/or in the high frequency band channel).Described technology is stored as the code efficiency that cost provides increase with extra code book usually.
Fig. 1 b shows the block diagram of corresponding Voice decoder E200, it comprises the inverse quantizer 310 that is configured to the LSF S3 through quantizing is carried out inverse quantization, will become the LSF of one group of LP filter coefficient to LP filter coefficient transducer 320 through the LSF of inverse quantization vector transformation with being configured to.Composite filter 330 according to the configuration of LP filter coefficient is driven by pumping signal usually, to produce the synthetic reproduction S5 of input speech signal.Pumping signal can based on random noise signal and/or based on as the quantization means of the residual error that sends by scrambler.In some multiband scrambler of for example wideband acoustic encoder A100 and demoder B100 (describing referring to (for example) Figure 10 a, Figure 10 b and Figure 11 a, Figure 11 b as this paper), the pumping signal that is used for a frequency band derives from the pumping signal that is used for another frequency band.
Stochastic error is introduced in the quantification of LSF, and described stochastic error is usually uncorrelated to next frame from a frame.This error may cause the LSF through quantizing level and smooth not as the LSF of non-quantized, and may reduce the perceived quality through decoded signal.Compare with the LSF vector of non-quantized, the independent of LSF vector quantizes usually the amount that meeting one frame one frame ground increases spectral fluctuations, and these spectral fluctuations may cause sounding not nature through the signal of decoding.
Knagenhjelm and Kleijn propose a kind of solution of complexity, wherein carry out the smooth through the LSF of inverse quantization parameter in demoder.This has reduced spectral fluctuations, but is as cost with extra delay.The application's case describing method, described method is used temporary transient regulating noise in coder side, and making not to have reducing spectral fluctuations under the situation of extra delay.
Quantizer is configured to input value is mapped to one in one group of discrete output valve usually.A finite population output valve is available, makes the input value of a scope be mapped to single output valve.Because compare, indicate the index of corresponding output valve to transmit, so quantize to have increased code efficiency with less position with original input value.Fig. 2 shows the example that the common one dimension of being carried out by scalar quantizer shines upon.
Described quantizer can be vector quantizer equally, and uses vector quantizer that LSF is quantized usually.Fig. 3 shows a simplified example of the multidimensional mapping of being carried out by vector quantizer.In this example, the input space is divided into several Voronoi zones (for example, according to arest neighbors standard (nearest-neighbor criterion)).Quantification is mapped to the corresponding Voronoi of expression zone with each input value, and () value is shown as it point herein usually, the centre of form.In this example, the input space is divided into six zones, makes arbitrary input value all can represent by an index that only has six different conditions.
If input signal is very level and smooth, so according to the small step square between the value in the output region that quantizes, output through quantizing may appear sometimes not as good as original level and smooth situation.Fig. 4 a shows an example of the level and smooth one-dimensional signal that only changes in a quantification gradation (only showing a described grade herein), and Fig. 4 b is illustrated in the example of this signal after quantizing.Even the input among Fig. 4 a only changes among a small circle, but the output of the gained among Fig. 4 b contains how unexpected transformation and level and smooth not as good as original.Described effect may cause audible non-natural sign (artifact), and may reduce this effect at LSF (or other expression of spectrum envelope to be quantified).For instance, can improve LSF quantification performance by incorporating interim regulating noise into.
In method, in scrambler,, the vector of spectrum envelope parameter is estimated once at each frame (or other block) of voice according to an embodiment.Parameter vector is quantized, so that be transferred to demoder effectively.After quantizing, storage quantization error (be defined as between parameter vector that quantize and non-quantized poor).Before the parameter vector to frame N quantizes, make the quantization error of frame N-1 reduce zoom factor, and add the parameter vector of frame N to.When current spectrum envelope through estimating and previous difference between the spectrum envelope of estimation are relatively large, may wish that the value of zoom factor is less.
In method, calculate LSF quantization error vector and make it multiply by the zoom factor b that has than 1.0 little values at each frame according to an embodiment.Before quantizing, add previous frame to LSF vector (input value V10) through the scalar quantization error.The quantization operation of described method can be described by for example following expression formula:
y(n)=Q(s(n)+b[y(n-1)-s(n-1)]),
Wherein s (n) is relevant to frame n the LSF of smooth vector, and y (n) is the LSF vector through quantize relevant with frame n, and Q () is the arest neighbors quantization operation, and b is a zoom factor.
(the output valve V30 through quantizing of) smooth value V20 for example, the LSF vector, wherein smooth value V20 is based on the quantization error of zoom factor bV40 and previous output valve V30a to be configured to produce input value V10 according to the quantizer 230 of embodiment.Can use described quantizer do not having to reduce the spectrum fluctuation under the situation of extra delay.Fig. 5 shows a block diagram of implementing 230a of quantizer 230, wherein can implement peculiar value for this reason and be indicated by subscript a.In this example, by calculating quantization error from the currency that deducts smooth value V20a as current output valve V30a by inverse quantizer Q20 inverse quantization.Store described error into delay element DE10.Smooth value V20a itself be current input value V10 with as convergent-divergent (for example multiply by) zoom factor V40 previous frame quantization error with.Alternatively, the mode that can also use zoom factor V40 before storing quantization error into delay element DE10 is implemented quantizer 230a.
Fig. 4 c shows as the example of (through inverse quantization) output valve V30a sequence of being produced by quantizer 230a in response to the input signal of Fig. 4 a.In this example, the value of b is fixed on 0.5.The signal that can see Fig. 4 c is more level and smooth than the fluctuation signal of Fig. 4 a.
May need to use recursive function to calculate feedback quantity.For instance, can calculate quantization error with respect to current input value rather than with respect to current smooth value.Described method can be described by for example following expression formula:
y(n)=Q[s(n)],s(n)=x(n)+b[y(n-1)-s(n-1)],
Wherein x (n) is the input LSF vector relevant with frame n.
Fig. 6 shows the block diagram of the enforcement 230b of quantizer 230, wherein can implement peculiar value for this reason and be indicated by subscript b.In this example, by calculating quantization error from deducting current input value V10 as current output valve V30b by inverse quantizer Q20 inverse quantization.Store error into delay element DE10.Smooth value V20b be current input value V10 with as convergent-divergent (for example multiply by) zoom factor V40 previous frame quantization error with.Alternatively, the mode that can also use zoom factor V40 before storing quantization error into delay element DE10 is implemented quantizer 230b.Also might implement among the 230a to use the different value of zoom factor V40 with to implement 230b opposite.
Fig. 4 d shows as the example of (through inverse quantization) output valve V30b sequence of being produced by quantizer 230b in response to the input signal of Fig. 4 a.In this example, the value of b is fixed on 0.5.The signal that can see Fig. 4 d is more level and smooth than the fluctuation signal of Fig. 4 a.
It should be noted that and to implement embodiment as shown here by replacing or augment according to existing quantizer Q10 as Fig. 5 or layout shown in Figure 6.For instance, quantizer Q10 can be embodied as predicted vector quantizer, multi-level quantiser, division vector quantizer (split vector quantizer) or implement according to any other scheme that quantizes at LSF.
In an example, the value of b is fixed on the desirable value between 0 and 1.Perhaps, may need dynamically to adjust the value of zoom factor b.For instance, may need the degree of the fluctuation that existed in the LSF vector according to non-quantized to adjust the value of zoom factor b.When the difference between current LSF vector and previous LSF vector was big, zoom factor approached zero, and does not almost have the regulating noise result.Have only a little not simultaneously at current LSF vector with previous LSF vector, zoom factor approaches 1.0.In this way, may keep spectrum envelope transformation in time, thereby when voice signal changes, make distortion spectrum reduce to minimum, when voice signal is constant relatively from a frame to next frame, can reduce spectral fluctuations simultaneously.
Can make value and the distance between the adjacent LSF of b proportional, and can use in each distance between the vector any one to determine variation between the LSF.Usually use Euclid norm (Euclidean norm), but also can use other distance, comprise manhatton distance (Manhattan distance) (1-norm), Chebyshev (Chebyshev) distance (infinitely great norm), Mahalanobis generalised distance (Mahalanobis distance), Hamming distance (Hamming distance).
May need to use through the range observation of weighting and determine variation between the adjacent LSF vector.For instance, can come computed range d according to for example following expression formula:
d = Σ i = 1 P c i ( l i - l i ^ ) 2
Wherein l indicates current LSF vector, Indicate previous LSF vector, P indicates the number of the element in each LSF vector, subscript i indication LSF vector element, and the vector of c indication weighting factor.But selective value c emphasizes more significant lower frequency components in the perception.In an example, c iHave value: 1.0, wherein i from 1 to 8; 0.8, i=9 wherein; And 0.4, i=10 wherein.
In another example, can according to for example following expression formula calculate between the adjacent LSF vector apart from d:
d = Σ i = 1 P c i w i ( l i - l i ^ ) 2
Wherein w indicates the vector of the variable weighting factor.In a described example, w iHas value P (f t) r, wherein P is illustrated in the LPC power spectrum that estimates under the respective frequencies f, and r is the constant with representative value (for example) 0.15 or 0.3.In another example, select the value of w according to the corresponding weighting function that G.729 uses in the standard at ITU-T:
Figure S2006800181405D00072
At the minimum and the highest element of w, select boundary value to replace l respectively near 0 and 0.5 I-1And l I+1Under described situation, c iCan have the value of indication as mentioned.In another example, remove c 4And c 5Has outside the value 1.2 c iHas value 1.0.
Fig. 4 a from basis frame by frame can understand to Fig. 4 d, and interim regulating noise method described herein may increase quantization error.Yet though the absolute square error of quantization operation may increase, potential advantages are different pieces that quantization error is movable to frequency spectrum.For instance, quantization error is movable to lower frequency, therefore becomes more level and smooth.When input signal is also level and smooth, can obtain more level and smooth output signal, its be input signal and through the quantization error of smooth and.
Fig. 7 b shows the example as the basic sound source filter arrangement of the coding of the spectrum envelope that is applied to narrow band signal S20.Analysis module calculates one group of parameter that characterizes corresponding to the wave filter of the language during a period of time (being generally 20 milliseconds).Prewhitening filter (be also referred to as and analyze or prediction error filter) according to those filter parameter configurations is removed spectrum envelope so that signal is carried out the frequency spectrum equating.Gained is compared with primary speech signal through whitened signal (being also referred to as residual error), has less energy, and therefore has less variation, and easier coding.Also may on frequency spectrum, scatter more equably by the error that the coding of residual signals causes.Filter parameter and residual error are usually through quantizing, so that transmission effectively on channel.At the demoder place, according to the composite filter of filter parameter configuration by signal excitation, to produce the synthetic version of original language based on residual error.Composite filter is configured to have transfer function usually, and it is the inverse of the transfer function of prewhitening filter.Fig. 8 shows the block diagram of the basis enforcement A122 of arrowband scrambler A120.
As shown in Figure 8, arrowband scrambler A122 also by making narrow band signal S20 through the prewhitening filter 260 (be also referred to as and analyze or prediction error filter) according to described filter coefficient configuration set, produces residual signals.Although also can use IIR to implement, in this particular instance, prewhitening filter 260 is embodied as the FIR wave filter.This residual signals will contain information important in the perception of speech frame usually, for example relevant with tone long-term structure, its not expression in narrow band filter parameter S 40.Quantizer 270 is configured to calculate the quantization means of this residual signals, so that export as encoded arrowband pumping signal S50.Described quantizer comprises vector quantizer usually, and it is encoded into input vector the index of the corresponding vectorial clauses and subclauses in Compass or the code book.Perhaps, described quantizer can be configured to send one or more parameters, according to described parameter, can dynamically produce vector at the demoder place, rather than retrieves from storer as in sparse code book (sparsecodebook) method.Described method is used for for example algebraically CELP (codebook excitationlinear prediction, the code book Excited Linear Prediction) encoding scheme, and 3GPP2 (Third GenerationPartnership 2 for example, third generation partner program 2) in the codec of EVRC (Enhanced Variable Rate Codec, enhanced variable rate codec).
Need arrowband scrambler A120 to produce encoded arrowband pumping signal according to the same filter parameter value, described filter parameter value can be used by corresponding arrowband demoder.In this way, the encoded arrowband of gained pumping signal may be the reason of the undesirable property (for example, quantization error) of those parameter values to a certain extent.Therefore, need to use and to dispose prewhitening filter by available same tie numerical value at the demoder place.In the basic example of as shown in Figure 8 scrambler A122,240 pairs of narrow band filter parameter S of inverse quantizer 40 are carried out inverse quantization, LSF gets back to corresponding LP groups of filter coefficients to LP filter coefficient transducer 250 with the income value mapping, and use this group coefficient to dispose prewhitening filter 260, thereby the generation residual signals, described residual signals is quantized by quantizer 270.
Some enforcement of arrowband scrambler A120 be configured to by in this vector of group code identification with residual signals mate most one, calculate encoded arrowband pumping signal S50.Yet, it should be noted that also and can not produce actually under the situation of residual signals, implement the quantization means that arrowband scrambler A120 calculates residual signals.For instance, arrowband scrambler A120 can be configured to use several codebook vectors (for example to produce corresponding composite signal, according to current filter parameter group), and select the codebook vectors of mating most with original narrow band signal S20 with the signal correction connection that is produced in the territory of weighting in perception.
Fig. 9 shows the block diagram of the enforcement B112 of arrowband demoder B110.310 pairs of narrow band filter parameter S of inverse quantizer 40 are carried out inverse quantization (in the case, inverse changes into one group of LSF), and LSF is transformed into one group of filter coefficient (for example, describing with reference to inverse quantizer 240 and the transducer 250 of arrowband scrambler A122 as mentioned) to LP filter coefficient transducer 320 with LSF.340 pairs of arrowbands of inverse quantizer residual signals S40 carries out inverse quantization, to produce arrowband pumping signal S80.Based on filter coefficient and arrowband pumping signal S80, composite filter 330 couples of narrow band signal S90 in arrowband synthesize.In other words, arrowband composite filter 330 is configured to repair according to through the inverse quantization filter coefficient arrowband pumping signal S80 being carried out frequency spectrum, thereby produces narrow band signal S90.Arrowband demoder B112 also is provided to high band encoder A200 with arrowband pumping signal S80, and it uses arrowband pumping signal S80 to derive high band excitation signal S120, and is as described herein.In as mentioned below some implemented, arrowband demoder B110 can be configured to the extraneous information relevant with narrow band signal (for example spectral tilt (spectral tilt), pitch gain (pitch gain) and sluggishness and speech pattern) is provided to high band decoder B200.The system of arrowband scrambler A122 and arrowband demoder B112 is the basic example of analysis-by-synthesis audio coder ﹠ decoder (codec).
By public switch telephone network (public switched telephone network, voice communication PSTN) traditionally with bandwidth constraints in the frequency range of 300-3400kHz.(for example the cellular phone and the networking telephone (voice over IP, VoIP)) can not have identical bandwidth constraints, and may wish to transmit and receive the voice communication that comprises wideband frequency range by described network to be used for the new network of voice communication.For instance, may wish to support to expand to 50Hz and/or upwards expand to 7 or the audio frequency range of 8kHz downwards.Also may wish to support other application, for example high quality audio or audio/video conference, it may have the audio speech content in the scope outside the traditional PSTN restriction.
A kind of wideband speech coding method relates to convergent-divergent narrowband speech coding techniques (for example, a kind of method is configured to the scope of 0-4kHz is encoded), to cover broader frequency spectrum.For instance, can higher rate be taken a sample by voice signal, so that it comprises the component under the upper frequency, and the arrowband coding techniques can be configured to use more the multi-filter coefficient to represent this broadband signal again.Yet for example the arrowband coding techniques calculated amount of CELP (code book Excited Linear Prediction) is bigger, and the broadband celp coder may consume too much cycle of treatment and just can be applicable to many moving and other Embedded Application.Using described technology that the entire spectrum of broadband signal is encoded to required quality also may cause bandwidth unacceptably significantly to increase.Its arrowband part in addition, can need described encoded signal is carried out code conversion, even can be transferred in the system that only supports arrowband coding and/or by the system decodes of only supporting the arrowband coding before.
Figure 10 a shows the block diagram of wideband acoustic encoder A100, and it comprises independently arrowband and high frequency band speech coder A120 and A200 respectively.One or both among arrowband and high frequency band speech coder A120 and the A200 can be configured to use the enforcement as quantizer disclosed herein 230, carries out the LSF quantification of (or another coefficient is represented).Figure 11 a shows the block diagram of corresponding broadband voice demoder B100.Can implement bank of filters A110 and B120 with principle and enforcement according to announcement in the patent application case of applying for the application's case " SYSTEMS; METHODS; AND APPARATUS FOR SPEECHSIGNAL FILTERING " (attorney docket 050551), according to wideband speech signal S10, produce narrow band signal S20 and high-frequency band signals S30, the disclosure of this type of bank of filters in the described patent application case is incorporated herein by reference.
May need to implement wideband speech coding, make the part of arrowband at least of encoded signal can pass through narrow band channel (for example, the PSTN channel) transmission, and do not need code conversion or other material alteration.Also may need the efficient (for example) of wideband encoding expansion to avoid and in using (for example wireless cellular telephony and by wired and broadcasting wireless channel), significantly to reduce by serviced user's number.
A kind of method of wideband speech coding relates to according to encoded narrow-band spectrum envelope extrapolation high frequency band spectrum envelope.Yet, do not implement described method under the situation of code conversion though can have any increase and not need in bandwidth, generally can not predict the rough spectrum envelope or the resonance peak structure of the highband part of voice signal according to the spectrum envelope of arrowband part exactly.
The particular instance of wideband acoustic encoder A100 is configured under the speed of about 8.55kbps (kbps) wideband speech signal S10 be encoded, wherein about 7.55kbps is used for narrow band filter parameter S 40 and encoded arrowband pumping signal S50, and about 1kbps is used for high frequency band coding parameter (for example, filter parameter and/or gain parameter) S60.
May need encoded low band signal and high-frequency band signals are combined into single bit stream.For instance, may need encoded signal is carried out together multiplexed, for transmission (for example, by wired, optics or wireless transmission channel) or for storage, as encoded wideband speech signal.Figure 10 b shows the block diagram of wideband acoustic encoder A102, described wideband acoustic encoder A102 comprises multiplexer A130, and it is configured to narrow band filter parameter S 40, encoded arrowband pumping signal S50 and high frequency band coding parameter S60 are combined into through multiplexed signal S70.Figure 11 b shows the block diagram of the correspondence enforcement B102 of broadband voice demoder B100.
