In a speech coding system using excitation source of voiced and unvoiced, it would be involves a distortion of speech waveform in case coexist with a voiced and an unvoiced consonants in a frame. This paper present a new method of TSIUVC (Transition Segment Including Unvoiced Consonant) approximate-synthesis by using Least Mean Square. The TSIUVC extraction is based on a zero crossing rate and IPP (Individual Pitch Pulses) extraction algorithm using residual signal of FIR-STREAK Digital Filter. As a result, This method obtain a high Quality approximation-synthesis waveform by using Least Mean Square. The important thing is that the frequency signals in a maximum error signal can be made with low distortion approximation-synthesis waveform. This method has the capability of being applied to a new speech coding of Voiced/Silence/TSIUVC, speech analysis and speech synthesis.

This paper presents the VHSIC Hardware Description Language(VHDL) implementation of the Fixed Point Covariance Lattice(FLAT) algorithm for an Linear Predictive Coding(LPC) analysis and its related algorithms, such as the forth order high pass Infinite Impulse Response(IIR) filter, covariance matrix calculation, and Spectral Smoothing Technique(SST) in the Vector Sum Exited Linear Predictive(VSELP) speech coder that has been Selected as the standard speech coder for the North America and Japanese digital cellular. Existing Digital Signal Processor(DSP) chips used in digital cellular phones are derived from general purpose DSP chips, and thus, these DSP chips may not be optimal and effective architectures are to be designed for the above mentioned algorithms. Then we implemented the VHDL code based on the C code, Finally, we verified that VHDL results are the same as C code results for real speech data. The implemented VHDL code can be used for performing logic synthesis and for designing an LPC Application Specific Integrated Circuit(ASOC) chip and DsP chips. We first developed the C language code to investigate the correctness of algorithms and to compare C code results with VHDL code results block by block.

In this paper, we present a comparison between QCELP(Qualcomm Code Excited Linear Predictor) speech coder that is operating in digital mobile communication system and CS-ACELP(Conjugate Structure Algebraic Code Excited Linear Prediction) speech coder that is scheduled to use for IMT-2000 (International Mobile Telecommunications 2000) system. The performance comparison might give help to design of the speech coding algorithms so that the robustness of the algorithms to channel errors engaged by mobile communication system be optimized.

In a speech coding system using excitation source of voiced and unvoiced, it would be a distortion of speech waveform in case of exist a voiced and an unvoiced consonants in a frame. To solve this problem, this paper present a method of LMS-MPC uses individual pitch and LMS(Least Mean Square). I evaluate the MPC and LMS-MPC using LMS. As a result, SNRseg of LMS-MPC was improved 1.5dB for female voice and 1.3dB for male voice respectively. Compared to the MPC, SNRseg of LMS-MPC has been improved that I was able to control the distortion of the speech waveform finally. And so, I expect to be able to this method for cellular phone and smart phone using excitation source of low bit rate.

The standard of evaluating function of speech coder for mobile telecommunication can be shown in channel capacity, noise immunity, encryption, complexity and encoding delay largely. This study is an algorithm to reduce complexity applying to CDMA(Code Division Multiple Access) mobile telecommunication system, which has a benefit of keeping the existing advantage of telecommunication quality and low transmission rate. This paper has an objective to reduce the computing complexity by controlling the frequency band nonuniform during the changing process of LSP(Line Spectrum Pairs) parameters from LPC(Line Predictive Coding) coefficients used for EVRC(Enhanced Variable-Rate Coder, IS-127) speech coders. Its experimental result showed that when comparing the speech coder applied by the proposed algorithm with the existing EVRC speech coder, it's decreased by 45% at average. Also, the values of LSP parameters, Synthetic speech signal and Spectrogram test result were obtained same as the existing method.

In digital communicatioin networks, speech recognition systems conventionally reconstruct speech followed by extracting feature [parameters. In this paper, we consider a useful approach by incorporating speech coding parameters into the speech recognizer. Most speech coders employed in the networks represent line spectral pairs as spectral parameters. In order to improve the recognition performance of the LSP-based speech recognizer, we introduce two different ways: one is to devise weighed distance measures of LSPs and the other is to transform LSPs into a new feature set, named a pseudo-cepstrum. Experiments on speaker-independent connected-digit recognition showed that the weighted distance measures significantly improved the recognition accuracy than the unweighted one of LSPs. Especially we could obtain more improved performance by using PCEP. Compared to the conventional methods employing mel-frequency cepstral coefficients, the proposed methods achieved higher performance in recognition accuracies.

We developed a speech coder that can transfer data as well as speech for CDMA digital cellular system. We describe the design method of the speech coder that uses QCELP algorithm for speech coding. The speech coder is implemented on a single fixed-point DSP chip (TMS320C50). the coder has the complexity such as 4K words in RAM, 10K words in ROM, and 33 MIPS in execution time. The developed speech coder is fully tested and successfully working on the CDMA base station system.

Real-time implementation of Conjugate-Structure Algebraic CELP(CS-ACELP) is presented. ITU-T Study Group(SG) 15 has standardized the CS-ACELP speech coding algorithm as G.729. A real-time implementation of the CS-ACELP is achieved using 16 bit fixed point DSP16210 Digital Signal Processor (DSP) of Lucent Technologies. The speech coder has been implemented in the bit-exact manner using the fixed point CS-ACELP C source which is the part of the G.729 standard. To provide a multi-channel vocoder solution to digital communication system, we try to minimize the complexity(e.g., MIPS, ROM, RAM) of CS-ACELP. Our speech coder shows 15.5 MIPS in performance which enables 4 channel CS-ACELP to be processed with one DSP16210.

Resonable speech quality assessment methodologies are required for speech quality assessment model which is used at speech system and communication network. There are objectlve measuies and subjective measures and subjective measure has the variousproblems in speech quality assessment methodologies.

In a MPC(Multi-Pulse Coding) using excitation source of voiced and unvoiced, it would be a distortion of voice waveform. This is caused by normalization of synthesis speech waveform of voiced in the process of restoration. To solve this problem, this paper present APC-MPC of amplitude-position compensation in a multi-pulses each pitch interval in order to reduce distortion of synthesis waveform. Also, I was implemented that the APC-MPC in coding system. And I evaluate the SNRseg of APC-MPC in 8kbps coding condition of convergence system. As a result, SNRseg of APC-MPC was 13.9dB for female voice and 14.3dB for male voice respectively. And so, I expect to be able to this method for cellular phone and smart phone using excitation source of low bit rate.
