An improved residual-domain phase/amplitude model for sinusoidal coding of speech at very low bit rates: a variable rate scheme
نویسنده
چکیده
An improved harmonic sinusoidal model is presented, where the underlying sine wave amplitudes and phases are e ciently represented using a combination of linear prediction, linear phase alignment, all-pass ltering, and spectral sampling in the residual-domain. The analysis and synthesis systems are introduced and the derivation and encoding of each model parameter is discussed. Performance analysis on a large database indicates e ective modeling of the sinusoidal parameters. A variable-rate sinusoidal coder operating at an average bit rate of 1.75 kbps, based on the proposed model, has been developed, yielding reproduced speech of good quality, intelligibility, and naturalness. The proposed model may nd applications in low bit rate speech coding in high capacity wireless communication systems.

An Improved Background Noise Coding Mode for Variable Rate Speech Coders
In this paper, we present a novel background noise coding scheme for variable rate speech coders. Existing approaches to noise coding at very low bit rates (i.e. below 1 kbps) fail to faithfully reproduce background noise resulting in a degradation of the overall perceptual quality. In our approach, classification of the noise type is used to select the type of excitation to be used at the rece...

The Exponentially Damped Sinusoids (EDS) model can efficiently represent real-world audio signals. In the context of low bit rate parametric audio coding, the EDS model could bring a significant improvement over classical sinusoidal models. The inclusion of an additional damping parameter calls for a specific quantization scheme. In this report, we describe a new jointscalar quantization scheme...

متن کاملA mixed sinusoidally excited linear prediction coder at 4 kb/s and below
There is currently a great deal of interest in the development of speech coding algorithms capable of delivering toll quality at 4 kb/s and below. For synthesizing high quality speech, accurate representation of the voiced portions of speech is essential. For bit rates of 4 kb/s and below, conventional Code Excited Linear Prediction (CELP) may likely not provide the appropriate degree of period...
