Abstract

Most speech codecs utilize a post-filter that emphasizes pitch structures to enhance perceptual quality at the decoder. Particularly, the bass post-filter used in ITU-T G.718 performs an adaptive pitch enhancement technique for a lower fixed frequency band. This paper describes a new post-filtering method in which the bass the frequency band and the gain are adaptively controlled frame-by-frame depending on the pitch frequency of decoded signal to improve bass post-filter performance. We have confirmed the improvement of the speech quality with the developed method through objective and subjective evaluations.
