Abstract

See full text

Comfort noise is produced in a linear predictive speech decoder which operates discontinuously, i.e., treats data frames which alternately represent speech information and background noise. During decoding of received data frames which contain background noise-describing parameters, a first number of these data frames which have been received directly before a speech frame are excluded and replaced with one or more background noise describing frames which have been received earlier. Another number of the background noise-describing frames which have been received immediately after a sequence of speech frames are also left out during the decoding and replaced by one or more background noise-describing frames which have been received before the sequence of speech frames. This results in a minimized degradation of the background noise information and gives an optimal comfort noise on the receiver side.
