Why G.723.1 degrades the high frequency components of speech? - koro - Aug 12 7:45:00 2004



Dear all:
I found that when a female speech was coded by G.723.1, the
speech sounds more "low" (high frequency components
degradation). However, this situation is less noticeable in
the case of male speakers.

In fact, I had tried GSM and G.729 before, and female speakers
always get more low quality outputs than male. I am not sure
but I think that this "curse" may be caused by the over-
simplification of the residual signal (or fixed-codebook in
the case of CELP) because residual take care of the more
unpreditable part of speech (high frequency components). Am I
right or there is another explanation? Thanks in advance!
