AMA Satyanarayana MurthyAHA HarikaCNCh Nikhita

Key Points

  • To develop an efficient coding method that reduces bit rate while maintaining speech quality and intelligibility in mobile communications.
  • Implemented a Code Excited Linear Prediction (CELP) algorithm on noise-free speech signals using MATLAB.
  • Compared performance against Linear Predictive Coding (LPC) under the same coding framework and bit allocation.
  • Conducted subjective tests to evaluate the quality of the coding method at various bit rates.
  • The CELP coder demonstrated significant performance improvement at both 16kbps and 9.6kbps compared to LPC.
  • Maintained speech quality and intelligibility, allowing for more efficient bandwidth usage.

Abstract

Voice communication is one of the easiest and natural methods of communication between human beings. In recent times it became popular because of mobile communications. It contains information as well as personal information such as age, identity, emotions etc. The requirement for efficient coding method is still a research topic for noise environment. Speech coding technique reduces the bandwidth requirements and storage space for speech data. Efficient coding method helps to reduce the bit rate and at the same time keep the speech quality and intelligibility at reasonable rate. Many speech coders have been developed to compress effectively and to ensure optimized performance to the human ear. Service providers of mobile phone communications are looking for low bit rate coders to allocate more number of users in limited bandwidth. In this paper a mixed coding method i.e. Code Exited Linear Prediction (CELP) is implemented on noise free speech signals using MATLAB. With this more exact modeling of spectral zeros is possible compared to the linear predictive coding (LPC). Subjective tests indicated that the coder at 16kbps and 9.6kbps achieves a significant improvement in performance over LPC coder under the same coding framework and bit allocation.
