Well, corrupting one LSP changes all filter taps, even though the effect
on the spectrum is generally localized. When it comes to VQ, it depends
on what bit you lose. If you lose a bit of the highest stage, the effect
tends to be severe and you're better off considering the frame "lost"
(assuming you can detect the error). For lower stages though, the
distortion shouldn't be too bad. Possibly less than for scalar
quantization. One other aspect that can increase robustness of VQ is
index assignment. The idea is to optimize the ordering of the codebook
to minimize distortion when a bit gets corrupted.
