Abstract

A delay unit is provided to delay adapting modes of a codec if channel communication conditions are improving. A less robust mode having a higher intrinsic quality is selected only after some delay. The quality of the communication is measured to give quality values for successive measurement occasions. The delay unit comprises a plurality of memory cells in a memory for storing the quality values of the communication conditions of the channel for the most recent measurement occasions. A selector operates according to an algorithm for selecting one of the memory cells. The content of the selected cell is used to set the mode of the codec.
