Nokia speech codec selected by 3GPP2

IRVING, Texas-Nokia Corp. said it beat five other proposals for standardizing a cdma2000 wideband speech codec with the Third Generation Partnership Project 2.

“The new Variable Rate Multi-Mode Wideband speech codec offers superior wideband speech quality at data rates comparable to current narrowband speech codecs, resulting in highly intelligible and natural speech that represents a quantum leap over the quality of both today’s wireless and wireline networks,” said the company.
