Title
APC-AB codec modules operating at 16 and 8 kbit/s
Abstract
High-quality speech codec modules operating at 16 and 8 kb/s have been developed using an adaptive predictive coding with adaptive bit allocation (APC-AB) scheme. An optimized APC-AB algorithm is studied that reduces processing complexity while maintaining speech quality. The coding algorithm is implemented in two digital signal processors (DSPs). The DSP chips, a framing LSI circuit, a PCM codec, and some peripheral ICs are integrated in each of two compact packages, i.e. codec modules, operating at 16 or 8 kb/s. The codec module size is as small as 80 mm×50 mm×12 mm, and its typical power consumption is 500 mW using 2-μm CMOS LSI technology. At 16 kb/s this APC-AB codec achieves high speech quality, close to that of a 7-bit μ-law PCM. The codec modules are expected to be used for various applications such as customer premises multiplexers for digital leased lines, digital mobile radio, and stored-and-forward-message systems (voice-mail systems)
