Overview: D2's G.729A-Annex B CS-ACELP voice coder algorithm module implements the ITU-T G.729-Annex A and Annex B voice coder standard. Annex B to G.729A defines a voice activity detector and comfort noise generator for use with G.729 or G.729A optimized for V.70 applications. It compresses codec or linear data to 8 kbps code using the Conjugate-Structure Algebraic-Code-Excited Linear-Predictive Coding Algorithm. Designed to the VP Open interface the G.729 Annex B voice coder module easily integrates with other VP Open modules, runs in real-time concurrently with other VP Open modules and handles any number of voice ports assigned to the DSP.
Ideal Performance: Integrated with other VP Open modules and tested for concurrent real-time processing on multiple voice ports.
Algorithm Verification: * ITU G.729A-Annex B test vectors - includes test sequences of voice data and other test signals under consideration * Numerical stability tests with tones and extreme values * Code error test with stationary and non-stationary errors * Mean Opinion Scores (MOS) test according to ITU-T P.80 specification for Absolute Category Rating * VP Open interface validation
