Abstract

AbstractIn the analysis‐synthesis coding of speech signals, realization of high quality in the low‐bit‐rate coding depends on the extraction of its characteristic parameters in the preprocessing. The precise extraction of the fundamental frequency, one of the parameters of the source information, guarantees quality in speech synthesis. But its extraction is difficult because of the influence of the consonant, nonperiodicity of vocal cord vibrations, the wide range of the fundamental frequency, and so on. In this paper we propose a new fundamental frequency extraction with the criterion based on its harmonics structure and low‐bit‐rate speech coding system using the wavelet transform. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
