Packet loss concealment for VoIP based on Pitch Waveform Replication and Linear Predictive Coding
Masahiro Toyoshima, Tetsuya Shimamura · 2014
In this paper, we propose a Packet Loss Concealment (PLC) method. Our method is based on Pitch Waveform Replication (PWR) and Linear Predictive Coding (LPC). The estimated packet using LPC is better than that using PWR at a near boundary of the lost packet and the received one. On the other hand, the estimated packet using PWR is better than that using LPC at a distant boundary. Therefore, we combine the two estimated packets by considering the merits and demerits of PWR and LPC. Experimental results show that the proposed method provides better Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality (PESQ) scores than the conventional methods. Especially PESQ scores of the proposed method are remarkably excellent in the case of male voice.
