G.722
CODEC OVERVIEW
G.722 speech codec was standardized by ITU-T in 1988. The encoder operates on 14-bit speech/audio signals sampled at 16 KHz and generates a compressed bit-stream having a bit rate of 64kbps. The codec transforms the speech/audio signals using the Sub-Band ADPCM (SB-ADPCM) algorithm. The application at the transmit side can truncate each octet generated by the encoder by 1 or 2 bits to insert auxiliary data before transmission. The codec therefore provides an auxiliary data channel rate of 0, 8 or 16 kbps respectively. Decoder can be operated in one of 3 modes corresponding to bitrates 64, 56 or 48 kbps respectively. Appendix IV of the standard specifies a low complexity PLC algorithm for the decoder. The target applications for this codec includes the fixed network Voice over IP applications.
