On a Pitch Change of the Waveform Coding by the Cepstrum Analysis of Speech Waveforms
Myung-Jin Bae, Misuk Lee · The Journal of the Acoustical Society of Korea · 1992
The waveform coding is concerned with simply preserving the wave shape of speech signal through a redundancy reduction process. In area of the speech synthesis, the waveform codings with high quality are mainly used to the synthesis by analysis. However, because the parameters of this coding are not classified as either excitation parameters and vocal tract parameters, it is difficult to applying the waveform coding to the synthesis by rule. In this paper, we proposed a new pitch alternation method that can change the pitch periods in the waveform coding by using the cepstrum analysis. Thus, it is possible that the waveform coding is carried out the synthesis by rule in speech processing.
