Speech signal compression using wavelet and linear predictive coding

الملخص EN

A new algorithm is proposed to compress speech signals using wavelet transform and linear predictive coding.

Signal compression based on the concept of selecting a small number of approximation coefficients after they are compressed by the wavelet decomposition (Hear and db4) at a suitable chosen level and ignored details coefficients, and then approximation coefficients are windowed by a rectangular window and fed to the linear predictor.

Levinson Durbin algorithm is used to compute LP coefficients, reflection coefficients and predictor error.

The compress files contain LP coefficients and previous sample.

These files are very small in size compared to the size of the original signals.

Compression ratio is calculated from the size of the compressed signal relative to the size of the uncompressed signal.

The proposed algorithms where fulfilled with the use of Mat lab package.
