GSM 06.10 13 kbit/s RPE/LTP speech compression available

The Communications and Operating Systems Research Group (KBS) at the
|
||
|
|
Technische Universitaet Berlin is currently working on a set of
|
||
|
|
UNIX-based tools for computer-mediated telecooperation that will be
|
||
|
|
made freely available.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
As part of this effort we are publishing an implementation of the
|
||
|
|
European GSM 06.10 provisional standard for full-rate speech
|
||
|
|
transcoding, prI-ETS 300 036, which uses RPE/LTP (residual pulse
|
||
|
|
excitation/long term prediction) coding at 13 kbit/s.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GSM 06.10 compresses frames of 160 13-bit samples (8 kHz sampling
|
||
|
|
rate, i.e. a frame rate of 50 Hz) into 260 bits; for compatibility
|
||
|
|
with typical UNIX applications, our implementation turns frames of 160
|
||
|
|
16-bit linear samples into 33-byte frames (1650 Bytes/s).
|
||
|
|
The quality of the algorithm is good enough for reliable speaker
|
||
|
|
recognition; even music often survives transcoding in recognizable
|
||
|
|
form (given the bandwidth limitations of 8 kHz sampling rate).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The interfaces offered are a front end modelled after compress(1), and
|
||
|
|
a library API. Compression and decompression run faster than realtime
|
||
|
|
on most SPARCstations. The implementation has been verified against the
|
||
|
|
ETSI standard test patterns.
