Abstract
A toll quality speech codec at 8 kbit/s with a 10 ms speech-frame currently under standardization by the CCITT is presented. The encoding algorithm is based on algebraic code-excited linear prediction (ACELP). Efficient pitch and codebook search strategies, along with efficient quantization procedures, have been developed to achieve toll quality encoded speech with a complexity implementable on current fixed-point DSP chips. Initial subjective tests showed that the codec quality is equivalent to that of G.726 ADPCM at 32 kbit/s in error-free conditions and it outperforms G.726 under error conditions. The codec can support a frame erasure rate up to 3% with slight degradation and performs adequately under tandeming conditions. The algorithm has been implemented on a single fixed-point DSP for the CCITT qualification test. It requires about 24 MIPS. >
