Pcm lpc residual reconstruction: history shift · case 01

Newest PCM sample is appended to oldest-first position.

ROOT CAUSE

Newest PCM sample is appended to oldest-first position.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Use the stated conversion contract at history shift.

Unsuccessful approach: Keeping old newest samples discards the wrong tap when shifting.

Case contract

Reconstruct bounded integer PCM LPC residuals using newest-first history, floor-divided complete dot products and reconstructed-sample history feedback.

Why this case matters

Offline PCM interchange uses these exact bounded packet and sample representation decisions.

Verification & scope

Stipulated finite model; no claim of hardware timing or full file-format conformance. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
