Title
Enhanced Lossless Coding Tools of LPC Residual for ITU-T G.711.0
Abstract
Motivated by the rapid increase of VoIP services with G.711 for telephone speech, a new ITU-T recommendation, G.711.0 (frame-wise stateless lossless compression scheme for G.711 log PCM symbols), has been standardized. The standard scheme has several coding parts, each of which is adaptively selected depending on the characteristics of the input. Among them, the mapped domain prediction part is the one most frequently activated for normal speech signals. This part consists of linear prediction in the mapped domain and variable length coding of the prediction residual. It is useful for log-compressed/expanded signal, such as ITU-T G.711. This paper describes three newly devised enhancement tools for the coding of prediction residual signals: progressive order prediction, quantized prediction order, and adaptive and sub-frame base coding for separation parameters. The design criterion is the maximization of the averaged FoM (figure of merit) over frame lengths of 40, 80, 160, 240, and 320 samples. The first tool, progressive order prediction associated with the adaptive modification of the separation parameter for the first and second samples, enhances the compression ratio by 0.5 % with a negligible increase of the complexity. The second tool, quantized prediction order, improves the compression ratio by 0.2 % with even reduced complexity. The third tool, sub-frame base adaptive coding of separation parameters, gives a 0.2 % improvement in the compression ratio with comparable complexity. All three schemes are consistently and independently effective for improving the compression ratio, although the amount of improvement with each tool is small. At the same time, none of the tools have any significant impact on computational complexity. Therefore, all the devised tools improve the FoM and have been adopted in the mapped domain prediction part of the ITU-T G.711.0 standard.
