A code excited linear prediction speech decoder is provided. An adaptive codebook generates an adaptive code vector. A random codebook generates a random code vector. A synthesis filter receives a signal based on the adaptive code vector and the random code vector, and performs linear prediction coefficient synthesis on the signal. The random codebook includes a pulse vector provider that provides a pulse vector having a signed unit pulse, a comparator that compares a value of adaptive codebook gain with a preset threshold value, a selector that selects a dispersion pattern from a plurality of dispersion patterns stored in a memory in accordance with a result of the comparison, and a generator that generates the dispersed vector by convoluting the pulse vector and the selected dispersion pattern.
