Real-time speech communication system based on optimized G.723.1

Abstract

A qualified speech communication is quite important in modern communication. Thus, the implementation of security algorithms is also very important to achieve real-time applications. In this paper, we design a robust and full-duplex real-time speech communication system based on Texas Instrument's 32-bit floating point DSP TMS320C6748. We use ITU-T G.723.1 as the audio codec in this system. According to the hardware of the system and also to meet the requirement of high-quality and real-time communication, several methods are introduced in this paper to optimize the algorithm. Through the optimization, time spending in compression and decompression reduce from more than 1000ms to about 10ms which guarantees a real-time communication. Our designed system has been successfully used for the speech communication of railway system.
