Abstract
A pitch search method and device for digitally encoding a wideband signal in particular but not exclusively a speech signal in view of transmitting or storing and synthesizing this wideband sound signal. The new method and device which achieve efficient modeling of the harmonic structure of the speech spectrum uses several forms of low pass filters applied to a pitch codevector the one yielding higher prediction gain (i.e. the lowest pitch prediction error) is selected and the associated pitch codebook parameters are forwarded.

Claim
1. A device, comprising:
an input configured to receive a pitch codevector and a target vector;
at least one frequency shaping filter configured to filter the pitch codevector to obtain at least one filtered version of the pitch codevector;
a prediction error calculator configured to determine at least two pitch prediction errors, a prediction error being representative of a difference between the target vector and a product of the pitch codevector and a pitch gain value, at least one of the pitch prediction errors being determined from a filtered version of the pitch codevector;
a selector configured to compare the at least two pitch prediction errors to identify the pitch prediction error having a lowest error energy value and to select the pitch gain associated with the lowest energy value; and
an output configured to provide an indication of the selected pitch gain.', 'an input configured to receive a pitch codevector and a target vector;', 'at least one frequency shaping filter configured to filter the pitch codevector to obtain at least one filtered version of the pitch codevector;', 'a prediction error calculator configured to determine at least two pitch prediction errors, a prediction error being representative of a difference between the target vector and a product of the pitch codevector and a pitch gain value, at least one of the pitch prediction errors being determined from a filtered version of the pitch codevector;', 'a selector configured to compare the at least two pitch prediction errors to identify the pitch prediction error having a lowest error energy value and to select the pitch gain associated with the lowest energy value; and', 'an output configured to provide an indication of the selected pitch gain.
2. The device according to claim 1, further comprising an indicator configured to provide an indication of the at least one frequency shaping filter used to obtain a filtered version of the pitch codevector.
3. The device according to claim 2, wherein the indication of the at least one frequency shaping filter is an index representative of the at least one frequency shaping filter.
4. The device according to claim 1, wherein the at least one frequency shaping filter comprises more than one frequency shaping filter configured to obtain more than one filtered version of the pitch codevector.
5. The device according to claim 1, wherein the at least one frequency shaping filter comprises a low-pass filter.
