Its design and + * implementation is modeled after the CVSD encoder/decoder + * specifications defined in the Bluetooth standard. + * \ingroup audio_blk + * + * \details + * CVSD is a method for encoding speech that seeks to reduce the + * bandwidth required for digital voice transmission. CVSD takes + * advantage of strong correlation between samples, quantizing the + * difference in amplitude between two consecutive samples. This + * difference requires fewer quantization levels as compared to + * other methods that quantize the actual amplitude level, + * reducing the bandwidth. CVSD employs a two level quantizer + * (one bit) and an adaptive algorithm that allows for continuous + * step size adjustment. + * + * The coder can represent low amplitude signals with accuracy + * without sacrificing performance on large amplitude signals, a + * trade off that occurs in some non-adaptive modulations. + * + * The CVSD encoder effectively provides 8-to-1 compression. More + * specifically, each incoming audio sample is compared to an + * internal reference value. If the input is greater or equal to + * the reference, the encoder outputs a "1" bit. If the input is + * less than the reference, the encoder outputs a "0" bit. The + * reference value is then updated accordingly based on the + * frequency of outputted "1" or "0" bits. By grouping 8 outputs + * bits together, the encoder essentially produce one output byte + * for every 8 input audio samples. + * + * This encoder requires that input audio samples are 2-byte short + * signed integers. The result bandwidth conversion, therefore, + * is 16 input bytes of raw audio data to 1 output byte of encoded + * audio data. + * + * The CVSD encoder module must be prefixed by an up-converter to + * over-sample the audio data prior to encoding. The Bluetooth + * standard specifically calls for a 1-to-8 interpolating + * up-converter. While this reduces the overall compression of + * the codec, this is required so that the encoder can accurately + * compute the slope between adjacent audio samples and correctly + * update its internal reference value. + * + * References: + * + * 1.
