Abstract

Defines the "artificial voice" which reproduces the characteristics of human speech for the purpose of characterising linear and non-linear telecommunication systems and devices intended for the transduction or transmission of speech. The artificial voice is a mathematically defined signal that reproduces the time and spectral characteristics of speech which significantly effect the performance of telecommunication systems. Two types of artificial voice are specified, reproducing respectively the characteristics of female and male speech.
