This invention is directed toward improving the subjective voice quality of a mobile to mobile phone call having tandem vocoder processing by modifying the spectrum of the voice signal before it is processed by the second vocoder to compensate for digital distortion which is generated by the second vocoder. An adaptive filter can be used to modify the spectrum of the voice signal. With this invention, the voice quality of a call from a first mobile phone to a second mobile phone has a quality that is substantially similar to the voice quality of a call from a mobile phone to a desk phone.

Mobile to mobile digital wireless connection having enhanced voice quality

A wireless communication method and arrangement that facilitates and allows a user at one end to send dual tone multiple frequency characters from one wireless unit to a second wireless unit completely within tandem free operation mode without changing to tandem operation mode. By remaining in tandem free operating mode during dual tone multiple frequency signaling the delay and distortion of the CODECs used in tandem operation mode is avoided, and the real possibility of missing bursts of dual frequency multiple frequency characters that exists presently because of existing timing requirements is removed.
