  • Publication number: 20150179187
    Abstract: A voice quality monitoring method and apparatus are provided, which solves a difficult problem of how to perform proper voice quality monitoring on a relatively long audio signal by using relatively low costs. The method includes capturing one or more voice signal segments from an input signal; performing voice segment segmentation on each voice signal segment to obtain one or more voice segments; and performing a voice quality evaluation on the voice segment to obtain a quality evaluation result according to the voice quality evaluation. Because the segmented voice segment includes only a voice signal and is shorter than the input signal, proper voice quality monitoring can be performed on a relatively long audio signal by using relatively low costs, thereby obtaining a more accurate voice quality evaluation result.

  • Patent number: 8447622
    Abstract: A decoding method and device are provided. The spectrum parameter of a current bad data frame is determined. Specifically, a number of continuous bad frames that occur currently is determined. A spectrum parameter of a good data frame before the current bad data frame is determined. And a constant mean value of a spectrum parameter is determined. Then, the spectrum parameter of the good data frame is adaptively shifted towards the constant mean value of the spectrum parameter according to the number of the continuous bad data frames to calculate and obtain spectrum parameter information of the current bad frame. When the continuous bad data frames occur, the relevance between the spectrum parameter of the nearest good frame and the spectrum parameter of the current bad frame is gradually reduced, so that more accurate spectrum parameter of the current bad data frame can be obtained, thereby obtaining a better speech quality under a same code rate and a same frame error rate.
