The proposed scheme is adapted to the input signal variance, providing highly efficient bandwidth usage, whereas implemented transform coding provides sub-sequences with more predictable signal characteristics, so that more suitable signal processing can be performed. The aforementioned transform coding precedes adaptive quantization, providing additional compression. The objective quality measure used for system performance estimation is SQNR (signal-to-quantization-noise ratio), which represents a standard measure for lossy coding types. The influence of transform coding is discussed by comparing the obtained results with the corresponding one achieved by applying only the same adaptive quantization. Furthermore, the comparison with system performance of PCM (pulse-code modulation) coding system confirms that the proposed coding scheme has a lot of potential for further implementation, since that the proposed system ensures SQNR gain up to 4.0983 [dB] for various values of system parameters.</p><p>DOI: <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.eie.22.3.15318">http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.eie.22.3.15318</a></p>}, number={3}, journal={Elektronika ir Elektrotechnika}, author={Tancic, Milan Z. and Peric, Zoran H. and Tomic, Stefan and Simic, Nikola}, year={2016}, month={Jun.}, pages={74 - 77} }
