Abstract

In this paper a new speech compression method is presented. The traditional speech compression method is based on linear prediction. The compression method, proposed in this paper, is based on the use of an orthogonal transform, the discrete cosine packets transform. This method is well suited for the speech processing, taking into account the sine model of this kind of signals and because this transform converges asymptotically to the Karhunen-Lofleve transform. After the computation of the discrete cosine packets transform, the coefficients obtained are processed with a threshold detector, who keeps only the coefficients superior to a given threshold. This way the number of non zero coefficients is reduced doing the compression. The next block of the compression system is the quantization system. This is build following the speech psycho-acoustic model. The proposed compression method is transparent, the compression rate obtained is important and the operations number and the memory volume used are not very high.
