초록

디지털 음성 부호화기는 디지털 통신 시스템의 음성 압축 수단으로 이용되어 왔으며 심한 채널에러와 한정된 주파수 자원과 같은 디지털 무선 통신 시스템 환경에 적합하게 더욱 발전해왔다. 또한 디지털 통신 기술의 비약적인 발전에 따라 사용자는 더욱 높은 수준에 해당하는 음성 서비스를 요구하게 되고 그로 인하여 단순히 의사 전달에 해당하는 음성 서비스에서 높은 수준의 멀티미디어 콘텐츠들을 수용할 수 있는 음성 및 오디오 부호화기의 기술개발로 급격히 전환 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 유선 및 무선 디지털망에서 사용되어지는 음성 / 오디오 부호화기의 기술에 대하여 살펴보고 이와 관련된 표준화 활동 및 기술동향에 대하여 알아본다. 또한 향후 유무선 디지털망의 발전에 따른 디지털 음성 / 오디오 부호화기술의 발전 방향에 대하여 언급한다.

Throughout the history of digital communication, the digital speech coder is used as speech compression tool. Nowadays, the speech coder has been rapidly developed in the area of mobile communication system to overcome severe channel error and limitation of radio frequency resources. Due to the development of high performance communication system, high quality of speech coder is needed. This kind of speech coder can be used not only in communication services but also in digital multimedia services. In this paper, we describe the technologies of digital speech coder which are used in wire and wireless communication. We also present a summary of recent speech coding standards for narrowband and wideband applications. Finally we introduce the technical trends of next generation speech coder.
