Abstract
In many vocoders LSFs (line spectrum frequencies) are used to encode the linear predictive coding (LPC) parameters. An interframe differential coding scheme is presented for LSFs. The LSFs of the current speech frame are predicted by using both the LSFs of the previous frame and some of the LSFs of the current frame. Then the difference vector resulting from prediction is vector quantized. The proposed scheme is computationally efficient and easy to implement, and can be used in low-bit-rate vocoders.
