G.729 Annex A speech coder
G.729 Annex A speech coder was developed for use in multimedia simultaneous voice and data applications like DSVD. The coder processes signals with 10 ms frames and has a 5 ms look-ahead which results in a total of 15 ms algorithmic delay. The input/output of this algorithm is 16 bit linear PCM samples that are converted from/to 8 kbps compressed data stream.
G.729 Annex B provides a high level description of the Voice Activity Detection (VAD), Discontinuous Transmission (DTX), and Comfort Noise Generator (CNG) algorithms. These algorithms are used to reduce the transmission rate during silence periods of speech. They are designed and optimized to work in conjunction with Recommendation V.70. Recommendation V.70 mandates the use of Annex A/G.729 (G.729A) speech coding methods. However, when it is desirable, the full version of Recommendation G.729 can also be used to improve the quality of the speech.
The line interface may be an analog front end (codec and DAA) or a digital interface such as T1/E1, switched 56 and ISDN. The upper end of this software offers a direct binary and speech frame interface.
