Linear Predictive Coding
- this page is a stub
Linear Predictive Coding (LPC), also known as LPC-10, FIPS 137 and
FED-STD-1015, is a speech encoding standard,
or vocoder, used in (secure) telephony.
It is a method for digitizing speech by analyzing and storing
specific characteristics of it,
such as pitch and voiced/voiceless sounds,
in such a way that an intelligible
signal can be reconstructed (synthesized) later.
The standard, finished on 28 November 1984, was developed by the
US Department of Defense (DoD) and is based on the
earlier STANAG 4198 standard, promulgated by
NATO on 13 February 1984 [1].
LPC was used with early voice encryption equipment, such as
STU-I, STU-II,
KY-57 (VINSON) and
Spendex 40,
and allows speech compression at low bitrates — typically between 800 and
2400 baud.
LPC-10e is a US Government standard that was even used on
STU-III terminals, when running at 2400 baud.
LPC-10 is an open standard, used and implemented by many manufacturers.

Based on masking properties of the hman ear. This later became the
basis for the perceptual coding technique used in MP3 (1993).
