Patent number: 12688860Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for coding audio signals. For example, a voice decoder can generate, using a neural network, an excitation signal for at least one sample of an audio signal based on one or more inputs to the neural network, the excitation signal being configured to excite a linear predictive coding (LPC) filter. The voice decoder can further generate, using the LPC filter based on the excitation signal, at least one sample of a reconstructed audio signal. For example, the neural network can generate coefficients for one or more linear time-varying filters (e.g., a linear time-varying harmonic filter and a linear time-varying noise filter). The voice decoder can use the one or more linear time-varying filters including the generated coefficients to generate the excitation signal.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2022Date of Patent: July 21, 2026Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Duminda Dewasurendra, Guillaume Konrad Sautiere, Zisis Iason Skordilis, Vivek Rajendran
