Abstract

This paper describes important issues on transcoding between different speech codecs by considering the paradigms of source and target coders, Conventional transcoding algorithms on LSP, pitch and adaptive/fixed codebook conversion are refined with regard to the structure of coders. In addition, a new perceptual weighting filter that plays a role in post-filter and perceptual weighting filter together is proposed to further improve the performance. The performance of the proposed algorithms is verified in step-by-step manner with the examples of transcoding between AMR, G.723.1 and G.729. By employing the proposed algorithm to the transcoders, the complexity is reduced by about 20%-76.88% and quality is also improved compared to conventional approaches.
