Hi

When a speech or audio signal is sent through a GSM or CDMA cellular phone,
what is the maximum audio frequency that is encoded by the codec? For
example, 4kHz is considered as the cutoff for a plain old telephone system.
GSM uses a CELP based encoder (?) ,so the number may be related to the
standard. Any approximate figures would be appreciated.

TIA,
Siddharth

Hello Siddharth,
Actually 4kHz is a real hard cutoff for POTS lines. They usually roll off at
3.2 or 3.4 kHz. Cellular vocoders aren't very different from POTS lines in
their frequency response limits
