New post-processing techniques for low bit rate celp codecs

Tommy Vaillancourt, Redwan Salami, Milan Jelinek

Abstract

This paper presents two new post-processing techniques to address limitations of the deployed low bit rate speech codecs in case of unvoiced speech and background noise, and in case of music. Both post-processing techniques enhance the spectrum of the decoded excitation signal without increasing the codec algorithmic delay. The paper discusses how to integrate the enhancement procedure of unvoiced speech and background noise and of generic audio signals coded by low bit rate ACELP codecs. The proposed post-processing procedures are part of the AMR-WB interoperable modes of the recently standardized 3GPP EVS codec [1].
