ABSTRACT:
A codec uses low cost digital signal processors (DSPs) to implement the codebook excited linear prediction (CELP) algorithm. The flexible architecture provides a platform for implementing a family of CELP codecs. In a specific example, an 8 Kbps CELP codec is partitioned into parallel tasks for real time implementation on dual DSPs with flexible intertask communication, prioritization and synchronization with asynchronous transmit and receive frame timings. The two DSPs are used in a master-slave pair. Each DSP has its own local memory. The DSPs communicate to each other through interrupts. Messages are passed through a dual port RAM. Each dual port RAM has separate sections for command-response and for data.
