Abstract
System for the vocoder transmission of speech signal with reduced bandwidth. The speech signal is split into a low-frequency part and a high-frequency part. The high-frequency part is subdivided into a number of sub-bands and for each sub-band a control signal with reduced bandwidth is transmitted. A control signal is representative for the ratio between the energy in the sub-band of the speech signal and the energy in the corresponding sub-band of a reference signal with high-frequency components, which is produced from the low-frequency part of the speech signal.
