ABSTRACT:
A packet communication system or ATM communication system in which a sequence of signals such as speech signals is divided into a plurality of band areas and the power of each band area is determined. Based on the power of each band area, coding signals are allocated for each band, frame by frame. At a receiving side, the signal to noise ratio SNR of the decoded signal is predicted by changing the total number of encoding bits for each band area based on the power of each band area signal. The bit rate is controlled so as to make the SNR constant. The bit rate is changed in accordance with a Fourier transform of the input signal.
