VORRICHTUNG ZUR ERZEUGUNG KODIERTER SPRACHELEMENTE IN EINEM FAHRZEUG

摘要

Fixed-format and coded control informations are received for generating announcements. The coded control informations select synthetic speech information items from a store. A speech generator under control of the control items forms a composite speech message. For a message containing both fixed items and variable items, fixed items are encoded in enriched phoneme notation. Variable items are encoded in straight phoneme notation. Items are provided in multiple versions. Each version has a respective different prosody pattern of pitch and/or rhythm of its phoneme sequence, and is selected by a multivalued context symbol adjoined or implicit to the associated control information element.
