FS-1015

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

FS-1015 is a secure telephony speech encoding standard developed by the United States Department of Defense and later by NATO. It is also known as LPC-10 and STANAG 4198.

The standard was finished 1984. The algorithm used is a linear predictive coding vocoder. The vocoder enables understandable speech, but the quality is very unnatural and synthetic.

The codec uses a bit rate of 2.4 kbit/s, requiring 20 MIPS of processing power, 2 kilobytes of RAM and features a frame size of 2.25 ms. Additionally, the codec requires a large lookahead of 90 ms.

Recently an improved version of the standard is introduced. With longer super frame structure and better quantizer the bit rate is reduced to 800 bit/s.[1]
