Abstract

See full text

Encoding techniques and devices are based on a sinusoidal speech representation model. In one aspect of the invention, a pitch-adaptive channel encoding technique for amplitude coding varies the channel spacing in accordance with the pitch of the speaker's voice. In another aspect of the invention, a phase synthesis technique locks rapidly-varying phases into synchrony with the phase of the fundamental. Phase coding techniques which introduce a voice-dependent random phase and a pitch-adaptive quadratic phase dispersion are also performed.
