  • Abstract
    Entropy coding principles are applied to the 16 kbit/s ITU G.728 speech codec. It is shown that the average bit rate can be reduced to 14.5 kbit/s without a significant increase in the codec complexity. In very low bit rate audiovisual communication applications such as the videophone, the saved bits can be used to improve the output video quality
