Codierung von akustischen Wellenformen.

摘要

Encoding techniques and devices based on a sinusoidal speech representation model are disclosed. In one aspect of the invention, a pitch-adaptive channel encoding technique for amplitude coding is disclosed in which the channel spacing is varied in accordance with the pitch of the speaker's voice. In another aspect of the invention, a phase synthesis technique is disclosed which locks rapidly-varying phases into synchrony with the phase of the fundamental. Phase coding techniques which introduce a voice-dependent random phase and a pitch-adaptive quadratic phase dispersion are also disclosed.
