Available Packages
Name : gsm
Version : 1.0.17
Release : 5.el8
Architecture : i686
Size : 38 k
Source : gsm-1.0.17-5.el8.src.rpm
Repository : appstream
Summary : Shared libraries for GSM speech compressor
URL : http://www.quut.com/gsm/
License : MIT
Description : Contains runtime shared libraries for libgsm, an implementation of
: the European GSM 06.10 provisional standard for full-rate speech
: transcoding, prI-ETS 300 036, which uses RPE/LTP (residual pulse
: excitation/long term prediction) coding at 13 kbit/s.
:
: GSM 06.10 compresses frames of 162 13-bit samples (8 kHz sampling
: rate, i.e. a frame rate of 50 Hz) into 260 bits; for compatibility
: with typical UNIX applications, our implementation turns frames of 160
: 16-bit linear samples into 33-byte frames (1650 Bytes/s).
: The quality of the algorithm is good enough for reliable speaker
: recognition; even music often survives transcoding in recognizable
: form (given the bandwidth limitations of 8 kHz sampling rate).
:
: The interfaces offered are a front end modelled after compress(1), and
: a library API. Compression and decompression run faster than realtime
: on most SPARCstations. The implementation has been verified against the
: ETSI standard test patterns.
