Providing a complete examination of the theoretical design and practical
applications of speech coders, the hardback edition of this book has already proved
invaluable for practising communications, network designers and computer scientists.
This lower-priced paperback version will enable advanced students of electrical, electronic and
communications engineering, computer networking and digital signal processing to take advantage
of this thorough treatment of the latest developments in digital speech coders.
Features include:
Fundamental material on sampling and quantization
Detailed coverage of speech signal analysis and modelling
An examination of the key tools for speech coding
Essential guidance on coding strategies and standards
A review of a wide-range of speech coding techniques, such as low delay
speech coding and multi-band excitation speech coders
Important information on error control in speech transmission
A comprehensive assessment of system applications and real-time implementations,
including coverage of the important code-excited linear prediction (CELP) method of speech coding
