An interactive tool for bit error rate analysis of speech coding algorithms

چکیده
A GUI-based software tool that provides a framework for evaluation of di erent speech coding algorithms is presented. The tool is designed to measure the susceptibility of speech coding algorithms to errors added on the encoded bit-stream during transmission. In particular, the errors can be added individually to the parameters that comprise the encoded bit-stream. This enables a designer of a speech codec to evaluate its performance under adverse or impaired channel conditions. The tool is universally applicable to di erent speech coding algorithms, by means of a user-de ned bitstream de nition le. In fact, the tool has been used in the past to evaluate a number of standardized speech coding algorithms. This paper describes the features of the software. In addition, the paper presents sample results generated by this tool during a study of the ETSI GSM Enhanced Full Rate algorithm.

متن کاملQuality enhancement of coded and corrupted speeches in GSM mobile systems using residual redundancy
In GSM system, speech is coded in frames. Here the redundancy is characterized mainly by the statistical correlation among certain temporally neighboring coefficients or bits. In our investigations the redundancy among bits is first utilized to realize a source-controlled channel decoding [2], so that the bit error rate can be further reduced. Then based on the redundancy among coefficients an ...
متن کاملAn improved vector quantization algorithm for speech transmission over noisy channels
Vector quantisation (VQ) is a method widely used in low bit-rate coding and transmission of speech signals. Unfortunately, a single bit error in the transmitted index, due to noise in the transmission channel, could degrade perceived speech quality at the receiver quite dramatically, as the reference vector retrieved by the corrupted index may di er greatly from the vector corresponding to the ...

متن کاملSoftbit speech decoding: a new approach to error concealment
In digital speech communication over noisy channels there is the need for reducing the subjective effects of residual bit errors which have not been eliminated by channel decoding. This task is usually called error concealment. We describe a new and generalizing approach to error concealment as part of a modified robust speech decoder. It can be applied to any speech codec standard and preserve...
