  • Abstract
    This paper describes the new U.S. Federal Standard at 2400 bps. The mixed excitation linear prediction (MELP) coder was chosen by the DoD Digital Voice Processing Consortium to replace the existing 2400 bps Federal Standard FS 1015 (LPC-10). This new standard provides equal or improved performance over the 4800 bps Federal Standard FS 1016 (CELP) at a rate equivalent to LPC-10. The MELP coder is based on the traditional LPC model, but includes additional features to improve its performance
