A frame formed of a plurality of code words encoded with an encoding mode in which two different types of code words are assigned one-to-one to two smallest quantization intervals is checked to determine whether it contains just the two types of code words assigned to the two smallest quantization intervals, and lossless encoding is applied to the frame containing just the two types of code words. A code obtained by this lossless encoding is decoded with a decoding method corresponding to the lossless encoding.

In a cable return path system, a method for performing digital companding adds a predetermined offset to the digital value to be companded, and employs a modified null-law or a-law companding technique to obtain a reduced bit length digital value. One embodiment of this modified approach adds a predetermined offset (e.g., 129 for a 12-bit implementation) to the digital value before companding and then employs a two-bit chord and a 5-bit step for the 12-bit implementation. The end result is that the performance metrics are not significantly compromised by this bit reduction when compared to current transmission methods without this technique.

In an inversely quantizing method of determining an inverse quantization value Y from an original quantization index value X, scale conversion is performed to a quantization index value X1 as at least a part of the original quantization index value X to produce first and second values which indicate the quantization index value X1. Then, first and second tables are referred to based on the first and second values, to determine third and fourth values corresponding to the first and second values, respectively. Then, an inverse quantization value Y is determined from the third and fourth values.

A mobile radiophone apparatus includes an A/D converter for outputting an input analogue voice signal as quantized data and a highly efficient voice encoder for extracting features of the quantized data output from the A/D converter and converting the data to codes of a smaller quantity by a fixed time unit. The number of quantization bits in the A/D converter is established to be larger than the number of quantization bits possible to be input to the highly efficient voice encoder. A bit-number converter is provided for converting the number of bits of the quantized data output at the A/D converter to the number of quantization bits possible to be input to the highly efficient voice encoder corresponding to a maximum amplitude value within the fixed time unit. the conversion parameter for the quantized data in the bit-number converter is transmitted in addition to the codes output at the highly efficient voice encoder.

A circuit for converting a 8-bit .mu.LawPCM code into a 14-bit linear code comprising an inversion circuit receiving a 8-bit .mu.LawPCM code for outputting a 8-bit inverted signal. A 6-bit signal is obtained by putting a bit of "1" at a place lower than the least significant bit of less significant four bits of the 8-bit inverted signal by one bit and another bit of "1" at a place higher than the most significant bit of the less significant four bits of the 8-bit inverted signal by one bit. The 6-bit signal is shifted by a bit shift circuit in the most significant bit direction by the amount which is within a range of 0 bit to 7 bits and which is determined by second to fourth significant bits of the 8-bit inverted signal. The result of shift in the form of 13-bit signal outputted from the bit shift circuit is added with a predetermined number by a constant number addition circuit, and a 14-bit linear code is constituted of a 13-bit output of the addition circuit and the most significant bit of the 8-bit inverted signal added as a sign bit.

A coding method uses a pseudo-logarithmic compression law approximated by a straight line segment curve. Its code word on n+1 binary digits, where n is a positive invariant integer, has a lefthand part made up of a variable number p of binary digits having the same value (1) corresponding to the rank number of the segment concerned in the compression law and a righthand part, which may be absent, determining the interval within the segment concerned. It may be implemented on the basis of a series of counting pulses defining the number to be coded by means of a circuit which comprises a divider circuit having a plurality of division ratios operating on the series of counting pulses, a synchronization circuit which also selects the division ratio of the divider circuit corresponding to the increment between intervals in the segment concerned of the compression law, and a counting circuit operating on the series of pulses delivered by the divider circuit and supplying on parallel outputs the value of the code word corresponding to the number of counting pulses applied to the input of the divider circuit.
