TermDescription
OrigOriginal source input speech
UQBaseline LPCNet synthesis using unquantised features
3dBCesptral features uniform quantiser with 3dB steps
20ms Cesptral features decimated to 20ms frame rate, linear interpolation back to 10ms
20ms_pq As above but pitch quantised to 6 bits, pitch gain to 2 bits
33bit_20ms 3 stage VQ of prediction error, 11 bits/stage, at 20ms frame rate, (33+8)/0.02 = 2050 bits/s
33bit_30ms Same 33 bit VQ, but decimated down to 30ms rate, (33+8)/0.03 = 1367 bits/s
44bit_40ms 4 stage VQ, at 30ms update rate, (44+8)/0.03 = 1733 bits/s
c2_2400 Codec 2 at 2400 bits/s
ssb_10dB Analog Single Sideband at a Signal/Noise ratio (in 3000 Hz) of 10dB. Band limited to 300-2600Hz. At similar SNR with an appropriate modem we can send error free 2000 bit/s coded speech.
