Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0122676A1] The invention concerns joint source-channel coding comprising quantization and phase modulation with a constellation of NC points. The constellation of the phase modulation is a rotated constellation (CC) derived from a predetermined rotation of a uniform phase constellation with NC points such that the NC points of the constellation are projected on any one of the axes (O-X1, O-X2) of the constellation in NC projections all different from one another. The quantization provides a non-uniform quantization law (CS) of NS levels which are NS projections among NC different projections of the rotated constellation (CC). Such coding can be used in particular in a speech encoder for mobile radio communication cellular system to reduce transmission channel band width.
