Abstract

Disclosed is a secret speech equipment for ensuring the secrecy of an analog voice signal, and used in voice communication systems such as an analog telephone and mobile radio. The equipment comprises a sub-band signal generating unit for treating input digital samples as frequency-multiplexed signals of voice spectra, to split the frequency-multiplexed signals into a plurality of frequency bands, and thus obtain sub-band signals of the frequency bands, a sub-band signal permutating unit for permuting the sequence of the sub-band signals, and a sub-band signal multiplexing unit for multiplexing the permutated sub-band signals.
