Binding Type: Hardcover - See All Available Formats & Editions Published: April 2000 Annotation: A Practical Handbook of Speech Coders helps developers and programmers to find digital speech coders suitable for their applications. The book also shows engineers how to tailor existing speech coders and create new coders by providing building blocks used as a foundation. Topics include: history of speech coders o background information o modern speech coding algorithms o measuring the quality of speech coders o inventing new coders o analysis of the benefits and limitations of new coders. This will be the first book to discuss how to craft a code to one's own specific needs. Click for more in this series: Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications (Hardcover) |

Publisher Description: The demand for digital speech coding algorithms grows every day, fueled by applications such as streaming speech over the Internet, Internet telephone, digital cellular telephony, wireless teleconferencing, and various multimedia applications. Until now, most of the books available on audio coding have been collections of individually authored papers. Others have discussed the fundamental coders, but neglected many of the innovations currently in use. Unlike these books, A Practical Handbook of Speech Coders offers in-depth treatment of the basics of speech coding plus the innovations to the basic methods that make the coders useful and efficient. |
