Mediumband speech encoding using time-domain harmonic scaling and adaptive residual coding for noisy channels
James L. Melsa, A. Pande · 2005
This paper describes the study of an approach to speech digitization at mediumband bit rates of 9.6 kb/s to 16 kb/s for the noisy channels. The technique is based on a combination of Time Domain Harmonic Scaling and an Adaptive Residual Coding. The use of fixed wordsize codewords and the absence of any side information transmission makes the system structure quite simple. Simulation studies have shown that this technique produces communication quality speech at 9.6 kb/s and excellent quality speech at 16 kb/s with a channel bit-error-rate as high as 1%.
