Adaptive Tree Encoding of Speech at 8000 Bits/s with a Frequency-Weighted Error Criterion

The multipath tree-encoding of speech at 8 kbits/s is investigated. Tree coding proceeds along the lines of Anderson, et al, but at this lower bit rate, frequency weighting of the error process and adaptation of the coding process are found to be beneficial. Coding results for a stationary speech-like source are found to agree well with rate-distortion theoretic ideas, and when applied to speech, tree coding at 8000 bits/s yielded frequency-weighted SNR's of 15-20 dB.
