  2. Voice-operated switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voice-operated_switch

    The circuit usually includes a delay between the sound stopping and switching direction, to avoid the circuit turning off during short pauses in speech. A special case exists, if there is enough energy to power the system directly. For example, a microphone may send a voltage high enough to directly operate a transmitter. [2]

  3. Sound-powered telephone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound-powered_telephone

    A sound-powered telephone is a communication device that allows users to talk to each other with the use of a handset, similar to a conventional telephone, but without the use of external power. This technology has been used since at least 1944 [ 1 ] for both routine and emergency communication on ships to allow communication between key ...

  5. Emphasis (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emphasis_(telecommunications)

    In telecommunications, de-emphasis is the complement of pre-emphasis, in the antinoise system called emphasis. De-emphasis is a system process designed to decrease, (within a band of frequencies), the magnitude of some (usually higher) frequencies with respect to the magnitude of other (usually lower) frequencies in order to improve the overall signal-to-noise ratio by minimizing the adverse ...

  6. Speech coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_coding

    For example, in voiceband speech coding, only information in the frequency band 400 to 3500 Hz is transmitted but the reconstructed signal retains adequate intelligibility. Speech coding differs from other forms of audio coding in that speech is a simpler signal than other audio signals, and statistical information is available about the ...

  7. Sub-band coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sub-band_coding

    Small signals are digitized with finer granularity than are large ones; the effect is to add noise that is proportional to the signal strength. Sun's Au file format for sound is a popular example of mu-law encoding. Using 8-bit mu-law encoding would cut the per-channel bitrate of CD audio down to about 350 kbit/s, half the standard rate.

  8. E and M signaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_and_M_signaling

    E and M signaling is a type of supervisory line signaling that uses DC signals on separate leads, called the "E" lead and "M" lead, traditionally used in the telecommunications industry between telephone switches.

  9. Signal separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_separation

    The classical example of a source separation problem is the cocktail party problem, where a number of people are talking simultaneously in a room (for example, at a cocktail party), and a listener is trying to follow one of the discussions. The human brain can handle this sort of auditory source separation problem, but it is a difficult problem ...
