VOCODIFICADOR DE VELOCIDAD VARIABLE.

摘要

A method of speech signal compression, by variable rate coding of frames of digitized speech samples, comprising the steps of: determining a level of speech activity for a frame of digitized speech samples; selecting an encoding rate from a set of rates based upon said determined level of speech activity for said frame; coding said frame according to a coding format of a set of coding formats for said selected rate wherein each rate has a corresponding different coding format and wherein each coding format provides for a different plurality of parameter signals representing said digitized speech samples in accordance with a speech model; and generating for said frame a data packet of said parameter signals.
