Codec2 HF Digital Voice at 450 bps
/Thomas Kurin, a student at the Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg, has developed a version of Codec2 that encodes speech at just 450 bps
Any speech codec running as low as 450 bit/s is pretty special, and this work is also a great starting point for further innovation and quality improvements.
