Abstract

See full text

A device and method for quantizing a gain of a fixed contribution of an excitation in a frame, including sub-frames, of a coded sound signal, wherein the gain of the fixed excitation contribution is estimated in a sub-frame using a parameter representative of a classification of the frame. The gain of the fixed excitation contribution is then quantized in the sub-frame using the estimated gain. The device and method is used in jointly quantizing gains of adaptive and fixed contributions of an excitation in a frame of a coded sound signal. For retrieving a quantized gain of a fixed contribution of an excitation in a sub-frame of a frame, the gain of the fixed excitation contribution is estimated using a parameter representative of a classification of the frame, a gain codebook supplies a correction factor in response to a received, gain codebook index, and a multiplier multiplies the estimated gain by the correction factor to provide a quantized gain of the fixed excitation contribution.
