    Abstract: Wideband speech signal must be converted to narrowband speech signals if the transmission medium or the destination termianl is constructed with narrowband constraints. A typical wideband-to-narrowband conversion method is the elimination of frequencies above 3400 Hz using a low pass filter and a down sampler. Howerver, this method producesa muffled speech sound since the resulting narrowband signal has a flat frequency response. Methods and apparatus are presented herein to enhance the acoustinc quality of a wideband-to-narrowband converted signal. A bandwidth switching filter (68) is used to emphasize a mid-range frequency portion of the wideband signal to that the resulting narrowband signal has a non-falt frequency spectrum.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for enhancing coding efficiency by reducing illegal or other undesirable packet generation while encoding a signal. The probiability of generating illegal or other undesirable packets while encoding a signal is reduced by first analyzing a history of the frequency of codebook values selected while quantizing speech parameters. Codebook entries are then reordered so that the index/indices that create illegal or ther undesirable packets contain the least frequently used entry/entries. Reordering multiple codebooks for various parameters further reduces the probability, that an illegal or ther undesirable packet will be created during signal encoding. The method and apparatus may be applied to reduce the probability of generating illegal null traffic channel data packets while encoding eight rate speech.

    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a method and apparatus for interoperability between CTX and DTX communications systems during transmissions of silence or background noise. Continuous eight rate encoded noise frames are translated to discontinuous SID frames for transmission to DTX systems (402-410). Discontinuous SID frames are translated to continuous eight rate encoded noise frames for decoding by a CTX system (602-606). Applications of CTX to DTX interoperability comprise CDMA and GSM interoperability (narrowband voice transmission systems), CDMA next generation vocoder (The Selectable Mode Vocoder) interoperability with the new ITU-T 4 kbps vocoder operating in DTX-mode for Voice Over IP applications, future voice transmission systems that have a common speech encoder/decoder but operate in differing CTX or DTX modes during speech non-activity, and CDMA wideband voice transmission system interoperability with other wideband voice transmission systems with common wideband vocoders but with different modes of operation (DTX or CTX) during voice non-activity).

    Abstract: A system and method for detection of rate determination algorithm errors in variable rate communications system receivers. The disclosed embodiments prevent rate determination algorithm errors from causing audible artifacts such as screeches or beeps. The disclosed system and method detects frames with incorrectly determined data rates and performs frame erasure processing and/or memory state clean up to prevent propagation of distortion across multiple frames. Frames with incorrectly determined data rates are detected by checking illegal rate transitions, reserved bits, validating unused filter type bit combinations and analyzing relationships between fixed code-book gains and linear prediction coefficient gains.
