Linear Predictive Coding Linear Predictive Coding (LPC)‚ a powerful‚ good quality‚ low bit rate speech analysis technique for encoding a speech signal. The source filter model used in LPC is also known as the linear predictive coding model. It has two main components LPC analysis (encoding) and LPC synthesis (decoding). The goal of the LPC analysis is to estimate whether
