1. A speech signal coding apparatus comprising:

  • dividing means for dividing a speech signal in units of first predetermined time intervals;

    spectrum parameter means for calculating a spectrum parameter for each first predetermined time interval;

    error signal generating means for generating a perceptual sensitivity weighted error signal from an inputted excitation signal and the spectrum parameter for said each first predetermined time interval of speech signal;

    adaptive code vector means having an adaptive code book which stores adaptive code vectors, for referring to said adaptive code book to select an adaptive code vector and a pitch period based on the perceptual sensitivity weighted error signal;

    excitation code vector means having an excitation code book which stores excitation code vectors, for referring to said excitation code book to select an excitation code vector from said excitation code book based on the perceptual sensitivity weighted error signal; and

    gain code vector means having a gain code book which stores gain code vectors, for referring to said gain code book to select a gain code vector based on the perceptual sensitivity weighted error signal, and for determining gains from said selected gain code vector for every second predetermined time interval shorter than said first predetermined time interval, and for producing said excitation signal from said adaptive code vector, said excitation code vector and the determined gains.
