Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012140347A1] The present invention relates to a method of determining an indicator evaluating the voice quality of a coded speech signal. The method is noteworthy in that it comprises the following steps; calculation (E202) per signal frame, of a predetermined number of coefficients of a linear prediction filter for the coded speech signal; determination (E203) per frame, of a speech signal reconstructed on the basis of the filter coefficients thus calculated; obtaining (E204) per sample, of the residual between the coded speech signal and the reconstructed speech signal; calculation (E206) of an evaluation indicator on the basis of the mean or the absolute value of the residuals obtained for all the samples. The invention also relates to a device for determining an indicator implementing the above method. It relates also to a method of evaluating the quality or of identifying the class of coding of the coded signal using the indicator determined, as well as to a measurement terminal implementing these methods.
