  • Patent number: 8380495
    Abstract: The embodiments of a transcoding method, a transcoding device, and a communication apparatus are provided. The embodiment of a method includes: receiving a bit stream input from a sending end; determining an attribute of discontinuous transmission (DTX) used by a receiving end and a frame type of the input bit stream; and transcoding the input bit stream in a corresponding processing manner according to a determination result. Thereby, a corresponding transcoding operation is performed on the input bit stream according to the attribute of DTX used by the receiving end and the frame type of the input bit stream. In such a manner, input bit streams of various types can be processed, and the input bit streams can be correspondingly transcoded according to the requirements of the receiving end. Therefore, the average computational complexity and peak computational complexity can be effectively decreased without decreasing the quality of the synthesized speech.

  • Patent number: 7778824
    Abstract: A device and a method for frame lost concealment are disclosed. A pitch period of a current lost frame is obtained on the basis of a pitch period of the last good frame before the current lost frame. An excitation signal of the current lost frame is recovered on the basis of the pitch period of the current lost frame and an excitation signal of the last good frame before the lost frame. Thereby, the hearing contrast of a receiver is reduced, and the quality of speech is improved. Further, in the present invention, a pitch period of continual lost frames is adjusted on the basis of the change trend of the pitch period of the last good frame before the lost frame. Therefore, a buzz effect produced by the continual lost frames is avoided, and the quality of speech is further improved.
