The suggested sinusoidal coder is targeted to find the coded sinusoidal parameters obtained by minimizing a likelihood function in a least square (LS) sense. From a rate-distortion standpoint, we address the problem of how to allocate available bits among different frequency bands to code sinusoids at each frame. For further analyzing the quantization behavior of the proposed method, we assess the quantization performance with respect to other methods: the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) based coder commonly used for speech enhancement or separation, and the line spectral frequency (LSF) coder used in speech coding. Through extensive simulations, we show that the proposed quantizer leads to less spectral distortion as well as higher perceived quality for the re-synthesized signals based on the coded parameters in a model-based approach with respect to previous STFT-based methods. The proposed method lowers the complexity, and, due to its tree-structure, leads to a rapid search capability. It provides flexibility for use in many speaker-independent applications by finding the most likely frequency vectors selected from a list of frequency candidates. Therefore, the proposed quantizer can be considered an attractive candidate for model-based speech applications in both speaker-dependent and speaker-independent scenarios.展开更多
