Patent EP-2345028-A1 (EP)
Inventor: VARY PETER
IPC: G10L25/93
Filed: 2009-09-28
Abstract: L’invention concerne un procédé permettant l’émission d’un signal vocal. Des trames de signaux vocaux sont reçues et sont utilisées dans un ordre prédéterminé pour générer un signal vocal à émettre. Si une trame de signaux devant être reçue n’est pas reçue, on utilise en lieu et place une trame de signaux vocaux de substitution qui est générée en fonction d’une trame de signaux vocaux reçue précédemment. Selon l’invention, si la trame de signaux vocaux reçue précédemment présente un signal vocal sourd, la trame de signaux vocaux de substitution est générée au moyen d’un signal de bruit.
