Wideband Speech Communication - The Quality Parameters as Perceived by the User
نویسنده
چکیده
Wideband speech transmission is one of the technologies discussed for use in wireless systems and VoIP scenarios to provide a quality dimension significantly different from today’s narrowband communication systems. While the problem of wideband speech coding is mostly solved the requirements for a wideband speech service are still under discussion. 3G mobile networks and VoIP networks both allow the transmission of wideband speech. In order to take advantage of the high quality networks appropriate services and terminal solutions are required.

Instrumental speech and noise quality assessment for super-wideband and fullband transmission
Recently super-wideband (SWB) and even fullband (FB) capable communication devices were introduced in the markets providing an audio bandwidth up to 20 kHz. At the same time, the development of speech enhancement algorithms proceeds for SWB/FB applications. To ensure sufficient quality from the end user’s point of view, there is clearly a need for new measurement methods taking into account all...

متن کاملInstrumental Estimation of E-Model Parameters for Wideband Speech Codecs
A method is described for quantifying the quality of wideband speech codecs. Two parameters are derived from signal-based speech quality model estimations: (i) a wideband equipment impairment factor Ie,WB and (ii) a wideband packet-loss robustness factor Bpl,WB. The equipment impairment factor can be combined with impairment factors for other quality degradations to form an estimate of the over...

متن کاملOn the identification of relevant degradation indicators in super wideband listening quality assessment models
Recently, new objective speech quality evaluation methods, designed and adapted to new high voice quality contexts, have been developed. One interest of these methods is that they integrate voice quality perceptual dimensions reflecting the effects of frequency-response distortions, discontinuities, noise and/or speech level deviations respectively. This makes it possible to use these methods a...
