Abstract
A speech scrambler is disclosed, in which a frequency spectrum obtained by an orthogonal transform of a time domain signal is divided into a plurality of blocks in the frequency domain. One of the blocks which has energy less than a predetermined value is adaptively replaced by a dummy spectrum. The resulting spectrum is rearranged in accordance with a predetermined rule. The frequency spectrum is subjected to an inverse othogonal transform to obtain a time domain signal for transmission. The orthogonal transform is fast Fourier transform or fast Hadamard transform.
