Voiced speech preprocessing employs waveform interpolation or a harmonic model circuit to smooth a transition region and simplify speech coding. At low bit rates, the speech is coded by a system that maintains a high perceptual quality in the transition region from a voiced (quasi-periodic) portion of the speech signal to an unvoiced (non-periodic) portion of the speech signal. Similarly, the transition region from an unvoiced portion to a voiced portion is conditioned to maintain a high perceptual quality at a low bandwidth. The transition region from one type of voiced region to another type of voiced region is also smoothed. The transition region is smoothed to create a quasi-periodic speech signal.
