Abstract
This paper describes new time domain techniques for concealing packet loss in the new 3GPP Enhanced Voice Services codec. Enhancements to the existing ACELP concealment methods include guided, improved pitch prediction, increased flexibility and accuracy of pulse resynchronization. Furthermore, the new method of separate linear predictive (LP) filter synthesis aims for sound quality improvement in case of multiple packet loss, especially for noisy signals. Another enhancement consists of a guided LP concealment approach to limit the risk of creating artifacts during recovery. These enhancements are also used in the presented advanced TCX concealment method. Subjective listening tests show that quality is significantly increased with these methods.
