We propose the computation reduction method of real root method that is mainly used in the CELP(Code Excited Linear Prediction) vocoder. The real root method is that if polynomial equations have the real roots, we are able to find those and transform them into LSF[1]. However, this method takes much time to compute, because the root searching is processed sequentially in frequency region. But, the important characteristic of LSF is that most of coefficients are occurred in specific frequency region. So, the searching frequency region is ordered by each coefficient's distribution. And coefficients are searched in ordered frequency region. Transformation time can be reduced by this method than the sequential searching method in frequency region. When we compare this proposed method with the conventional real root method, the experimental result is that the searching time was reduced about 46% in average.
